I sent you a private message with a link to a 7Z compressed campaign folder.

Thanks for the campaign...

Yes I can replicate it, the issue is your character has a name with a bracket in it... if you remove that it should work.

I'll think about the solution... basically a token with a () in its name is a spell token, I would guess with double brackets caused by the character name also having a bracket... causes the token to not be a 'spell token' and just a normal token.. hence it gets its green outline when you drag it.

While not Ideal for now just remove the () in character name, or put it in a [] instead.

Great find! The names in brackets are my players' names for me to more easily discern their chars (at least at the beginning of a campaign). I can easily change them.

Yep I could see, or guess that is what they were. I have a fix, just checking a few edge cases errors to trap. So you should be ok soon.

I already changed the names, first to [] then just deleted that part as the campaign is old enough for everyone to know their names. Still good to find these little things before others stumble over them.

New build is up, which should fix this. Unless you have a player called 'circle' it should not get confused on the shape.

My plan is to create a database list of spell tokens to store the increased data, so I dont need to encode it on the spell token name. So this should also resolve this issue.

But to hold that database, I probably need to adjust the characters stored data, so needs a bit of planning to try and keep it working, and probably needs a spell reparse to adjust the character storage of information.

Is there a way to target tokens with your spells token extension from the combat tracker? Is your stuff compatible with Diablobob's?

I dont expect to target from the combat tracker in the extension, and it should not cause issues with diablobobs but I can not say 100% as I've not tested the latest versions. ( And he has a few extensions, so would need to know what you are thinking... I'm assuming the critically awesome one which does the extra token effect line. )

At the moment due to the shapes this becomes complex, my thoughts on selections are to add right click radial onto the spell tokens to select friend/foe on the map... and possibly also a key press during a drag of a spell token to select those during the drag. ( for likes of spirit guardian along the walk path you are taking... but this also depends on how the spirit guardian type aura+player token ends up working. )

Time line for these things is now known.

One reason I removed the () part of the names was to shorten the already long tooltip that covers part of the map. Getting rid of the (circle) part would surely serve that end, too. Do these circle/square/whatever parts do anything mechanically or are they just an information?

@bratch9 I am having an issue. I bought the token pack, subed on Forge for the ext, enabled it, imported the xml files, and I see the spell list and the tokens in Spell Token tab... But none of the tokens are showing up on the character sheets under their actions. I see the spells, but not the tokens. What am I missing?
