FGU Shared Lighting Request

[BlazingAzureCrow]

As usual I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask, but is there a setting or extension for FGU that would make it so that when it switches to another player's turn on the CT or you select another player's token, everyone can see their line of sight/shares their darkvision, senses, etc, like when the GM is previewing them? We run a weekly D&d stream and it would do a lot for the production if we didn't have to move a "camera player" around.

There's the Party Vision and Movement setting in the Options. That would be an "always on" situation though, and it sounds like you'd rather have everyone see only what the active token can see which I can't think of a solution for at present.

That's effectively it, yeah. Or rather, having individual players see only the vision of the token they've selected. I guessed that Dynamic Lightning extensions were particularly difficult. That would've been really stellar for the stream-side view of things. Thank you for the quick response~!

There is an extension. It requires party vision to be enabled. But this extension selects each token on their turn so you see from their perspective.

I turned on that setting and if gave me exactly what I wanted! So many thanks! I had missed that option entirely.

I had this already actually, but without the option MeAndUnique pointed me to it wasn't giving me the individual functionality I wanted. Both together are working now! Thank you so much~!
