Step Counter

[Farratto]

We are observing a strange bug since some time now: we are using "Generic Actions" extension along with this Extension, which provides a "Dash" button. We tries to nail down if this is a bug in-between those two or even another extension - but the occurrence is erratic. Sometimes it works for hours without issue, and then suddenly, the bug appear.

When the "Dash" action is applied, the movement speed doubles (as expected) and the token can be moved to the new limit. If now the next turn starts - the token is sometimes reset to the original (non-dashed) token placement and the extra movement is no longer shown. Once this bug occurs - it is persistent, meaning all later dashes have this behavior.

If Fantasy Grounds in restarted - the bug usually vanishes, and does not reoccur until... some time into the game. No clue what triggers it.

Is there a debug I can switch on to get further details?

That is strange, indeed. I'm sorry you're having this trouble. The data in StepCounter is difficult to interpret (even for me sometimes). But everything is stored under the WalkThisWay heading in the db.xml, if you wanted to go fishing.

But if you want, you can send me a zipped up copy of your campaign folder (you can leave out the image files to save space if you want) and I'll take a look. You can pm me here or on discord. I have the same name on discord.

Done. Thanks for looking into the issue.

Just started using Step Counter today, and I noticed that it doesn't seem to know when a Fly spell effect has added a fly speed. Or rather, it kind of knows, but kind of doesn't.

For example, here someone has cast Fly on Anders Solmor, so he can remove his squishy self from the battlefield ASAP. The Speed window shows him as having a 60 ft Fly speed, but Fly isn't an option in the Current Speed Type menu (see screenshot) - it's just Walk, Climb, Swim. The effect is "Fly; SPEED: 60 type(fly); (C)", and it does show up under Current Speed. But Step Counter never counts against it, because it can't be selected as the current speed type.

FWIW, if the fly speed is on the character sheet directly, rather than via an effect, it shows up as a speed option.

Is there a step I'm missing?Attachment 66038

I'm sorry. I don't know how I missed this message. Are you still having this problem? I am unable to recreate.

No, I just tested, and it seems to be working now.

However, now the lines/arrows between steps don't appear to be showing. I suspect that has something to do with the new update, Untitled.png

Hit either of these buttons:

Yup, that was it. I must have mis-clicked, then missed it. Many misses, it seems. 😊

Thanks!

Really enjoying this extension, Farratto, along with Walk this Way. Would it be possible for the DM to get some control over the token display? I find the font at least 50% too big, and might want to toggle between having the distance display above or below the token. Thanks in advance for your consideration!

Thanks.

That would be harder than it sounds, but I will take a look :-)

I added some very rudementary controls for this. If you change the options, they will only take effect on any newly drawn movement indicators. Don't expect them to switch right away.

Rudimentary nothin'! Looks great!! Thanks for taking the time.
