Theme Extensions and Tokens

[ShotGun Jolly]

One question..

Is it possible to add particular tokens you would like to use in a theme.ext so when you load up the theme it automatically adds the tokens to either the shared or host folder? Same as it would if I was to make a module?

If yes, can you send me an example on how it would be coded please?


Thanks

Nope, you can't have tokens, or images, in extensions - they have to be in modules. The most you can have, as far as graphics go in an extension, is icon (https://www.fantasygrounds.com/refdoc/icon.xcp)and frame (https://www.fantasygrounds.com/refdoc/framedef.xcp)resources, but these are static and can't be used for tokens.

Ok, so really, a ruleset is what I really need to start working on, which will contain most of the works, and then a module to go with it.


Thanks Trenloe!

Well even a ruleset with a module requires the module to be activated separately so a theme and a module isnt much different...

What's interesting is that the Savage Worlds ruleset comes with a tokens folder built into the ruleset .pak file. They appear in the tokens window in a "ruleset" bag. I only confirmed this today, and I'm now travelling, so didn't have time to check if it is generic or if there is some Ikael magic code in there somewhere...
