View Full Version : Two 5E Bugs with Pointers

I only noticed/tested in the 5E ruleset but it is likely a core ruleset issue.

1) When a player with more than one character draws a "quick" pointer it deletes the pointer(s) of the other character. Likewise when one character deletes pointers it deletes the other character's pointers too. Pointers should be unique by character not by player.

2) When players have pointers on a map image, if the DM shift drags an NPC from the map with the pointers to another map - all the player pointers are deleted.

1) Each user can only have one quick pointer. I traced the code back 3 years, and that's the way that the system has always worked. This would be a feature request.

2) Thanks for reporting. I've escalated to Carl.

Poor Carl. Is Carl pulling his hair out yet? How many is that today?

This issue with quick pointers disappearing when dragging tokens between maps has been addressed in the the latest release. Please run a new Check for Updates.
