Nice! Thanks for pointing that out.

Any chance this extension can also take into account vision range? I had a fight with a creature 90' in the air in a darkened area and it was seen by a PC that did not have the type of vision that would have allowed that.

Unfortunately, I can't think of any way I could do that. The darkness itself doesn't indicate its height, even if I knew how to hook into the lighting functions. Best I could think would be to manually turn off the visibility of the token in such a case. If something does strike me, I'll definitely consider implementing it, though.

I've looked into that sort of thing also. I think APIs around lighting will be coming in the future, but likely there was a decision to wait until the actual lighting behavior had matured.

Hi. this is creating a weird measurement for token measurement in our campaign. We use half squares for movement and the THI measurement seems to put tokens separated by a half square at 5ft unlike the FGU measurement of 10ft (for both 1x and 1.5x).
This happens with both 1x and 1.5x from the options (because I believe the THI extension is overwriting all token measurement). I'm not sure if this is intended or a bug.

Thanks for the report. I did intend to have THI match FGU when only two dimensions are in play, so I'll take a look.

Thanks for responding so quickly!
I only took one snapshot since raw measurement is the same regardless of whether the THI extension is loaded or not.

Thanks. I have a fix - just need to do a lot of testing to ensure it doesn't break anything else.

v4.19 is live on the Forge which should make all of the half square movements match FGU. Let me know if anything seems off.

You’re the best! Will give it a go this weekend.
