Thank you, and yes he's right - you just need to enable AoE Targeting Mode. It's a per-user setting.

Any chance we could have ths working with ShadowDark please
Heya!
This is a fantastic extension. I would like to ask about better support for the WOB: Spellcasting Automation, though.
Currently, it works fine with Cones and Sphere/Circle areas of effect. It partially works with cubes (targets whatever is within 5 feet of the center of the cube, no matter what the actual size), and does not work at all with line templates. It's a real shame - these extensions were working great together previously, and they really compliment each other.
Regardless, thanks for the work on this, it's a great extension.
ShadowDark support has been added in the next build. I don’t have a full ShadowDark test setup locally yet, so please let me know if anything behaves oddly, but the extension now declares support for the ruleset.Quote:

Tested in a campaign with only AoE Targeting running, and it was smooth as butter. Guess I'm on the hunt for what's slowing it down!
Thanks for the fix!
AoE Targeting has a new rules/profile system for controlling how drawn pointers select targets. When AoE Targeting is enabled on an image, it will also print the detected grid size in chat, such as Map grid size: 128x128 px; distance scale: 5 per grid.
The new options are under the AoE Targeting section:
Height Targeting controls whether AoEs are calculated in 2D or 3D. In 2D, elevation is ignored. In 3D, token elevation is included, using the active map’s grid scale so token height/elevation is converted correctly per map.
Targeting Ruleset lets you choose the ruleset profile used for targeting behavior. You can leave it on the current campaign ruleset or choose a supported profile manually. As the extension continues to get feedback, these profiles will change overtime based on the community needs.
Targeting Rules controls how strict the targeting math is. Legacy uses the older token-box intersection behavior. Default uses token-space coverage and respects token scaling more naturally, (I suggest this). Strict uses grid-space coverage and requires a stronger overlap.
Rule Detail is a read-only summary that shows what the selected rule is doing, such as Token Box Intersect, Token Space Coverage - 12%, or Grid Coverage - 30%. Etc.
The main goal of this update is to make targeting customizable for your needs and table, plus more predictable across rulesets, different maps, grid sizes, hidden grids, token scale settings, and creature sizes. Large and Huge creatures are now handled by their occupied token spaces instead of being treated as one oversized blob, and square/rectangle pointer sizing has been corrected to match how Fantasy Grounds reports pointer length. Properly!
And AoE Targeting will go on sale for a week starting.. tomorrow.
