View Full Version : Can you/players transport tokens to different areas of a map?

Is there a way or extension that allows a token to enter an area and moves it to another location on the map?

The purpose of this is when I have a map of a location that often has multiple floors. If a PC moves their token onto the stairs is there a way to have it jump to a new location or even open a new image/map? Generally if I have a map that is a building with 2+ floors I keep it all as a single image, and each floor is simply lower on the image.

Thank you

I believe there is such an extension on the DMs Guild (Portals I think). However the DM can just move the tokens using SHIFT whilst dragging them to preserve fog of war, and to ignore Line of sight, if that is what you want. (Although I believe that the fog of war will not work properly on multilevel maps)

That is perfect! Thank you always for the timely response! Also thank you for the tip on SHIFT dragging, I didn't know about that.

Maybe some of the wiki videos and manuals on these hints and tricks could accessed by a link on the launching screen of FGU.

THere's so much to FGU that hints and tips might take up many pages. But you can click on the User Manual from the start screen and that'll link you to a heap of indexed information and videos.
