Has Sight Checkbox not preserved when saving token

Post by Tielc »

The Has Sight check-box in the Token Properties does not appear to be honored when I save a Token and reuse it. Is this intentional, or something missed?

You're going to need to be more specific about what version of MT your are using, java version, and OS. Maybe even explain exactly how this is failing for you.

This works fine for me in 1.3b89 (Java 7, Win 8.1):

Open MT.
Drop blank token on grasslands map.
Edit token and click "Has Sight" check box.
Save token.
Delete token from map.
Drag saved token to map.
Token has "Has Sight" box checked.

Good point, I'm using Maptool 1.3.b91, Java 7 Update 72, Windows 7 Enterprise 64bit.

I drag a Token onto Maptool, Has Sight is checked by default. I uncheck Has Sight, save the token, delete the token off from map, place a new instance of the token (from the Desktop where I saved it) Has Sight is checked (not unchecked as I saved it).

I believe that is a feature. If you're a GM, that doesn't happen, but as a player when dropping a new token it changes token to a PC and Has Sight is check.
