View Full Version : Way for DM to move tokens and ignore walls?

On a map with walls, PCs are unable to move their tokens outside of them - fair enough.

However, sometimes as DM, I want to move their token to the other side of the map and find that it also gets stuck on walls.

Is there a way for the DM to move tokens, ignoring walls, or is it the case that the token has to be deleted and re-added?

Just wondering if there is a shortcut button, or something...

Thanks!

Hold down the SHIFT key while dragging.

Easy as that? Thanks!

Is this something PCs can do, too, or is it a top secret DM shortcut?

I am soooo happy to hear about this nifty trick. One question though - if i move a PC token across unexplored terrain this way - will the FOW be lifted or is it ignored as the token is moved by the GM?

It will be ignored - See video two here https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forums/showthread.php?55797-How-do-I-in-Unity
