    Feature Request: Auto-Detection of Tokens when exporting a module

    I make all my own tokens, and when building a module it is very frustrating that I have to manually drag and drops all the tokens into the export window. FG should be able to detect all the tokens used automatically and put them into the exported tokens window for you.

    Ahhhh. it already does.
    You only drag additional tokens to the dialogue.
    Any NPCs being exported will have their tokens exported too.

    Create a folder called tokens in the campaign folder and put your tokens in there. They’ll get exported with the module.
    If there is something that you would like to see in Fantasy Grounds that isn't currently part of the software or if there is something you think would improve a ruleset then add your idea here https://www.fantasygrounds.com/featu...rerequests.php

    Perhaps that’s why it didn’t, I have my tokens organized through multiple folders in the base token folder for fantasy grounds.
    Still the program should be smart enough to detect and export tokens assigned to any npcs regardless of the tokens file being outside of the campaign folder.

    As damned mentioned - it does do this.

    Can you give us a repeatable example (preferably with screen shots) of when it does not?

    Sure, so here is a screenshot of the export window- i have npcs checked, and I also have open my folder structure window to show i have the token folder in the base fantasy grounds tokens folder (in the data dir). I haven't tried moving the tokens into the specific campaign folder yet (but i really shouldn't have to).

    This campaign is using tokens from Shadow of the Demon Lord and Misc Tokens folders.

    The tokens don't automatically display in the export window. Any referenced token in an NPC record that is local to your system is bundled up as part of the module when the export happens, and similarly with image records (i.e. images are exported).

    Yea, only tokens used in NPCs that are exported are exported. They won't export in the directory structure, but they should be included in the module file. Have you tried that?

    Check the module itself for tokens once you've exported it with NPCs that have tokens linked. The linked tokens don't display in the export window - that is only a place to add extra tokens.
