[extension] Spell Tokens Extension

[bratch9]

I used TEST today. The token select overlay happens when spell tokens are dragged from the character sheet. When the same spell token is dragged from the Spell Tokens window then it moves without being selected. But it moves faster than the mouse, which it shouldn't do.

is this from a player sheet on the gm side or a player sheet on the player side ?

Token selection seems to happen for one PC character, but not for another. The PC where it does not happen is owned by myself even as a player client. So I cleared and then took ownership of the PC character where it happens, but that made no difference, it still happens.

I tried to put the same spell on both PC chars, but still one char has it happen and the other not. While trying to move the spell token of another char (not owned) the console got flooded with the following error. Later it also happened when I tried to move a spell token owned by me (this time owning both chars, but trying the originally owned one). Only happens on the player side, not GM side.

I've updated a new build, those errors come from when tokens dont belong to the correct user so access becomes an issue. I've protected against some of this but can not be sure if I have every path.

I'm not sure I understand your issue, it might be that because i only have one account and log in to gm and player with it, maybe some other issue happens with a full proper multi-user log in situation ?

I've adjusted movement to try and keep them in sync with the mouse, and added shift/control wheel support when mouse is over the spell token.

Let me know if you not get the image errors, and if you do it might be worth zipping up a campaign so i can have a look at the xml data and check owners and user information to see if I can spot something.

I have downloaded the Forge version and the 4e Power support is not showing spell token on player sheet (was working on the previous version I had from DMsGuild). The Combat Tracker is showing spell icons so that part is working still.

New build version 4.4, done a lot of work on the spell token move and display.

I've added back tool tip for what spell token you are over, that now takes shape into account and its got custom drag processing and tracking. Dont select the spell token, just grab and drag it without the green highlight... you still get green highlight if you select it as i can not stop it doing that.

The spirit guardian (aura) for now is not available. I need to think about how to process that, thinking I might have to do the data tracking side so that I can record and track the (n)pc token reference with the spell token to make that work when you move the (n)pc token side.

Have fun, let me know if you have issues or feedback.

So, without token lock I can move the spell tokens with no green border. That is very nice! It works on both the pc and gm sides. Tooltips are working.

Bummer the aura move is off now.

With token lock on, you still have the same issue as the spell token gets the green circle the second you grab it. The GM can move it for the player, so easy work around.

I will give the update a try. Before updating I had one odd case where a normal CT creature token was moved by your faster than mouse-speed code even when no spell token was used on the map. Will keep an eye on that one.

Turns out that the update deletes the extension from Test, so I had to return to Live first in order to access it again. My changes to the target circle resources were removed by going back and forth between Live and Test, so I have to change that again. It's not too difficult once, though.

Unfortunately spell tokens from my players' sheets still get the selection circle, while the one from my own char sheet does now. I will have to ask one of my players to connect and try his own character's token to see what happens then. For me as GM the token selection does show up, though, which is rather inconvenient (at least until I change the marker again).

have you tried 'restet power actions' or delete and re-add the power ?

see attached, they are showing for me and in the image I changed the icon and did a reset power actions to have it update on the character sheet.

sorry, I removed the 'test' branch version when i updated the latest build.

I will get the aura back at some point, it was just too much to be thinking about when re-doing much of the control code..
