All PCs see the same thing?

Post by Ricks »

I think I finally (mostly) understand the relationships between Night/Day and light, Fog of War, and Vision.

We're mostly using maptool as a whiteboard, with all the players but one in the same room. I'd like for all PCs to be able to see everything that ALL of the PCs can see (not having Vision/LoS change when selecting another token).

Possible? I can't quite figure out how to set that.

Don't turn on Individual Views when you start the server up.

I don't have individual view up.

Indeed, the problem is SOLVED with individual views.

With individual views up, if an individual PC is selected, you can see their view. If selected anywhere else on the map, the view of all PCs is revealed (that is, you can see everything any PC can see).

With individual views not selected, that's not the case at all. I found another post talking about how that functionality got broken along the way.

Yes, that's how IV works. You asked for the other though.

But there may be a bug with that mode currently.
