Has anyone actually met Trevor? Is he a person or a collective?

One issue I noticed is that if a token is not snap to grid it will not report movement accurately. It reports pixels moved but not cells.

If that is your intention, can we get a preference to change that. I usually use all my tokens not snap to grid (my combats apparently involve a lot of dog piles), and it isn't all that convenient to divide by 40 in my head.

Thank you. 1.3 is looking great. Any sense when the file format will stabalize? I'm anxious to use this for my weekly campaigns but don't want to void out my maps.

Keep up the great work.

Good call. It works correctly if you have a gridless map, but not for non gridless maps, apparently. Tracker added.

I keep procrastinating it because it's going to be pretty tricky. But I think we're past most of the model changes, so now it's just the file format.

Would this potentially be the map format, the campaign format or the token format?

Or all of the above.

Oh and one important question, will you be able to export currently created tokens in to the token format?

All of those would be the same underlying technology

I noticed that too, set both the values (forget what they are called off hand) to the same value, I usually do 50 and in the other put 50 as well. This will cause it to report back the number of 'cells' the token moves.

This works for gridless maps, but not grid-based maps. I need to make the grid-based map tokens more intelligent when using non snap to grid.

We are borg. We are perfect. Prepare to be assimilated. Resistance is futile.

Stamp movement seems a bit borked. I'm working on it.

RPTroll · Post by **RPTroll** » Wed Aug 29, 2007 2:37 am

Would there be a way to make stamps move with the keypad like tokens do?
