Turn Hilight On Map

[lokibee]

I have read the docs and see nothing on this. I need to make the hilight ring around the token that comes up when its that person or npc's turn larger.
I play in a few games and its different size in each so how do I get it larger/smaller as a gm?

using the combat tracker, at the bottom left, there is a downward facing arrow, if you click it, it will make a flag next to the person with the highest initiative, and when clicked again will move to the next lowest and so forth. this will highlight the player/nps who's turn it currently is. if you want to move out of initiative order, drag the flag to a player/npc.

Also note this is for 4E, I noticed you did not specify a ruleset.

Edit: also just noticed your question was to how to change the size, sorry. I think that is a ruleset specific variable.

yep yep now if you notice in the screenshot above the token the arrow points at there is a white highlight around the token. I need to make that bigger

[TR0LL]

Ya, I think its set in the ruleset itself, and not something that is adjustable.

I don't think it can be changed in a ruleset either: you say you have seen it bigger in other rulesets, can you point me to an example?

[lokibee]

not even in different ruleset it was in 4e Kalan's game

It might have been to do with the amount of zoom, and/or the size of the token. I'm not aware that it can be deliberately changed by the GM, so a screenshot would be great to see.

Round tokens seem to make the highlight hard to see.
if you use 3d top down tokens the highlight is much easier to see.

I think you might be able to modify one of the underlay image files but I haven't messed around with this aspect in awhile to verify that.

[lokibee]

we'll try the top downs

[lokibee]

just a thought here but could it be as simple as changing a picture file?

[Kalan]

Now that I understand - I think it has more to do with the size of the minis one uses/zoom level of the map.

My maps are scaled to a 50px x 50px for a normal "square", and then I scale the minis in FG to fit that map. I also use Devin's awesome topdown minis in game.

If you're using anything else, then its just a manner of scaling the appropriate mini/token file to what you want to use. I think...my brain is so seriously fried from work I could just be talking out of a diff part of my anatomy...
