I guess I'm not following. How would it measure if there were no basis for measurement? Meaning some sort of distance standard, therefore assuming a grid with cells of that distance.

Some things I've noticed. - Last zoomed area isn't being saved with the campaign. I have to keep moving the screen to the location where all the player tokens are and zoom in appropriately. This worked fine in older versions, pre b32 I think. - This was probably in all versions, but if a player's to...

This was broken and fixed from 31 to 32 I think. Looks like some old code crept in?

Well, they're posted as "natural" animals. I figure there are enough dragon and other creatures to account for those other things.

I'll be posting a lot of dinosaurs on RPGMapShare.com in the following weeks. I've got a few up there already, but have a lot of new ones to put up. Here's the latest, a Cryolophosaurus (yes, supposedly a real dinosaur). 5 poses and a portrait. These are the scaled down images. Here's the link to th...

Thanks, man. It's always good to hear.

If you go to View and click Coordinates, you'll see on-screen coordinates (left and top) so players can tell the GM where they're moving. I use it extensively in my play-by-post games.

Phergus! You da man! Unless you're a woman...

Thanks!

Thanks for the letters in the screen coordinates!!

CT has an embedded database which saves files on the user's system. These are the biggest problem. You could put them in memory, but I doubt that all of 4e's powers would fit and you could probably forget about running more than one instance in lots of cases. If it is possible to host a H2 database...

Forgot to mention that I would gladly host any CT applet for development and production.

My thinking is that CT would not write anything to the user's system, all information would be stored on the server. Options to export in various formats (XML, HTML...) would be the way the user takes the data elsewhere. I fully realize this would be a ways off. Just wanted to put the thought out th...

No idea. I'm hoping that for CT it wouldn't take nearly as much as it would for MT, not having all the graphics libraries and such. But I don't know enough about Java to tell.

I think Character Tool could be extremely powerful as a web-based applet which could be hosted on a server, where character sheet data could be stored in a central location. With password protected sheets, GMs could grant access to specific players when needed.

Oops, many apologies SR. I misread the 'there' in your earlier post as 'here'. darn - should have had coffee before reading the forums this morning. I'll move this over there. Thanks for the help. Lol, no problem. I corrected the problem and uploaded a test map. I'll be gone for the weekend, so oth...
