View Full Version : Size of small creatures on maps

Hello, is there a possibility to automatically size small creatures to be about half a square on maps instead of the same size as medium creatures? I know I can adjust the size with CTRL + mouse wheel but I have to do it every time I put a small character on the map, so it gets a bit annoying over time, and sometimes I simply forget.
This request is for both PCs as well as enemies. I also don't know if is would be part of the coreRPG or PF2E specific, as I don't play other systems.
Thanks for considering this change :)

Table 9-1 Size and Reach on page 474 of the Core Rules has a Small sized creature taking up the same space as a medium sized creature - 5 feet. Hence why the ruleset has a small sized creature take up a 5 foot square.

Yeah I know that ruleswise they occupy the same space but I'd still like the tokens to be smaller. Just feels weird to have the halfling and goblin tokens be the same size as the orc and human tokens.
Maybe it could be solved with an optional extension, but I've no idea how I would begin to write that. In any case, thanks for your reply!

Yeah, as it's not RAW for PF2 then it would have to be handled by an extension.

Well, it would only be for visual purposes in any case :)

If you really wanna make them small on maps, go into the combat track, and make their size 0 the the token will be really small. I normally do that with tiny size PCs and Monsters, but you can use it for small creatures as well.

Yeah but I'd like small creatures to be in-between tiny and medium creatures. Like half a square basically :P

Mouse wheel down and some key like Ctrl or shift on a token will change its size

I know, it's literally the second sentence I wrote in the original post. I just don't want to do it over and over again.
