Ok, that's freaky cool, never knew this. But WHY does this happen again?

PS prob still need offsets but thanks for fixing my issue :)
This is one of the reasons why I wanted to be able to specify the snap to behaviour of a token (i.e. whether it snaps to centre or top left).

Yup, that's what I would expect

It would seem odd that you couldn't set an offset on light. How else are you going to have rear red lights and white headlights?

Do I understand this correctly that atm it is not possible to set an offset to a light or an aura? It is only possible for sight?

I actually just added offset to auras for cones in my fork. TBH I don't remember but it may work for lights as well...it should....

*Edit: Yep, it works for all lights. https://github.com/JamzTheMan/MapTool/issues/25

Sorry to bother you with a noob question but how do i 'install' from github? Or which files do i need?

Thanks! That is nice, lights and auras work with offset now :-) Very helpful!
How can i start this maptool-version with a launcher so i can adjust the memory size?

I removed the Launcher as it was incompatible. You adjust the settings via Edit -> Preferences now.
