View Full Version : Controlling multiple PCs not working

Hi,
I use FGU in person to control all the party for everyone on a horizontal TV on the table. It's always worked before where I could move any of the character tokens but since the newest FGU came out I can't seem to do it (newest since came out of preview). Seems weird since I own them all in FGU. I can only control one character (which is my actual character...not sure how it knows that one PC is really mine). What option do I need to turn off or on or what is going on here?
Actually trying to play right this moment.

There is a new option in the settings: Party vision and movement. Turn that on, that allows players to control all friendly characters (and to look through their vision) :) Have fun in your game, I hope you see my answer early enough :D

Yep, tried that and it is on but still doesn't work. I can see the vision but not move anyone...except for my own character which I don't understand at all as I own them all. Connected via one client and own them all in that one client.

hm, strange, I can use other friendly tokens. (just tested with a client)
Does your DM use any extensions? And which ruleset?

5e ruleset. Version is latest FGU 2020-11-4(client and server). There are some extensions. Automatic Mirror Image, Critically awesome essentials. There might be a couple others but we're in the middle of playing.

Ah, oki, before you play again, I would turn off the extensions 1-by-1 to see which extension is causing that :) I would guess that it is the critically awesome extension (because it affects tokens when I am not mistaken) :) But who knows, it could be also one of the other extensions :) (or several of them :D)
