"Manage Characters" button

I've made a video the "manage characters" functionality in FGU: https://youtu.be/30o7jjJpLoo

EDIT: Video has an addendum at 04:58 to cover character XML import/export.

Is there any chance of getting some kind of filtering for the Import list? I'd love to have a list of campaigns, and any other character sources (modules etc) in a drop-down the same as is present for other categories (Images, Spells etc. etc.). It would really help me to rationalise the ever increasing list of characters. Also, for some reason I'm still seeing PCs from campaigns that I've removed from the Campaign folder, is this as expected?

I often have several Campaigns with imported version of various PCs for testing and building purposes and these are really starting to clog up the works!

Cheers,

Simon

They could be from a player cache if you joined that campaign with a player instance from the same computer.

[Ludd_G]

Ah, good call. Is there a way to flush that cache out?

Go to the <FG app data>\cache directory - and you'll see a directory for each campaign you've joined as a player. Delete the directories you don't want cached data and PCs to be available from in future.

Get to <FG app data> by clicking the folder icon in the top left of the FGU startup screen.

Check the Wish List, add it if not there. https://fg2app.idea.informer.com/

Cheers Trenloe, I'll give that go and see if it sorts it out.
