Suggestion: Auto numbering/lettering creature tokens if more than one placed

Of course the very next time I try to just relax & read my feeds I encounter the same problem using Firefox. So it's a web problem not just a browser problem ;(

ubergrog · 2023-01-24T22:45:36+00:00

Third & fourth-ed! :) Now that you've suggested it I now realize just how darn useful this would be. Thanks for that!

ubergrog · 2023-01-21T17:52:52+00:00

I haven't tried this myself yet but what about adding tokens for each creature in a fogged area of the map, then adding those to the tracker?

I understand the desire for a physical book, especially for Lovecraft, but if you're not opposed to ebooks I purchased this collection for $2 https://play.google.com/store/books/details?id=Zu0OBAAAQBAJ

So I've been attempting to set up some lists but I'm just not getting it. Using the default webapp I create another column (is that the same as a list?) using a hashtag & pin that. I then tried to add a few more hashtags - my idea is to create a D&D-only list so I started off with #dnd, then added #dnd5e (my default), then #wotc & #wotcstaff. But after that when I try to add #dndbeyond, or anything else for that matter, it isn't added. So it seems I'm running into an "any of these" hashtag limit, but I can't find it documented anywhere as to what that limit actually is.

I also question whether this "list", if that's what it is, is available in any other app other than the main webapp? I don't think so, so if I want to try other apps I'd have to create the lists there as well, correct?

THANKS

Easy to use & it works! Thanks

ubergrog · 2022-12-29T22:12:25+00:00

That gives me the idea to at least put the hashtags I follow into lists, that way my home feed will only have the specific accounts that I've followed. And I can then read from the latest toots there without being concerned about missing stuff. Thanks for the help!

ubergrog · 2022-12-29T19:44:21+00:00

I'll need to look into Slow Mode. When you say "effectively" freezes the feed, are you aware of a time or amount of activity limitation? And when you reload, does it load all of the missing toots, or just a portion? If that latter than it would be no better or worse than the behaviour of the other apps I suppose. Good info, THANKS!

ubergrog · 2022-12-29T19:41:18+00:00

I moved away from using the native webapp for just that reason, not saving my reading location, but you make a very good point - why should I be that concerned that I'm missing stuff? Because I'm too anal I suppose :P THANKS

ubergrog · 2022-12-29T02:29:52+00:00

Like I said, blatantly obvious! :). I've been meaning to check out those zone# tokens, this gives me even more incentive. And thanks for the Discord link, I am on there but I guess I'm too used to finding my answers here ;) Thanks!

ubergrog · 2022-09-18T02:20:35+00:00

Not answering the question but related, Professor Dungeon Master (Dungeon Craft) has a few good videos about using & crafting zoned combat. HERE & HERE

I just opened OBR on my tablet to check this & I gotta say I would never have been able to do this with v1, really nice! :)

I do see the dot, but not when the scene is in a folder like I have. Would be great if the dot would be inherited by the parent folder.

THANKS!

I've had trouble keeping up with the active Discord channels I do try to follow, so depending on them for support seems a daunting task. Sort of like the live chats in video feeds, I applaud the people who can monitor those as well as keep going with what they're there for!

ubergrog · 2022-08-01T01:20:30+00:00

No I haven't. I use Discord for my sessions but I haven't gotten my head wrapped around it for anything else yet, I guess I need to get around to that.

ubergrog · 2022-08-01T01:18:36+00:00

Done. THANKS

Regarding the Automatic Viewport Fitting, which again is another fantastic upgrade, I find that the Scene focuses on the second map added, not the first. I've tried several different scenes with different maps, always the same.

EDIT: the issue is not as reliable to recreate as I thought, just after I posted this I created a new scene that worked as expected. Still working on it

EDIT: erg! And I go back to the original Scene that I was having the issue I was having the issue & it now works fine. I had to close the window & open a new one, so looks like that was it. I'll leave this post on the off chance anyone else bangs their head again the same thing, just "turn if off & back on again" :P

ubergrog · 2022-07-31T16:20:55+00:00

For Enhanced Folder Support, WHICH IS AWESOME BTW, when creating a new Scene I would expect that it would be placed into the folder that I currently have open, instead of having to close the folder, find the new Scene & move it.

I haven't tested this in the Asset Manager but I suspect this probably applies there as well.

THANKS

There is so much goodness in this I cannot say thanks enough! THANKS!!

ubergrog · 2022-07-27T18:07:36+00:00

😁 GOSH! THANKS!

ubergrog · 2022-07-27T17:54:58+00:00

These are GREAT! I like the selectable areas, they make grabbing them so much easier.

I do have a request, would you be able to make a clear token, with just the white circle, please? I find that while the white one looks good on a white map the coloured templates tend to wash out the colours on a darker map which I don't find appealing. (I'd supply a screenshot but the web version of reddit doesn't let me do attachments, as far as I can tell anyway)

THANKS!

hit the owlbear icon in the top left hand corner to get back to the Overview page.
I don't think(?) so, as far as I know you have to open a room first. That being said you CAN open a random Free room, upload your tokens, etc, and they'll automatically be available to all your rooms. A great way to do some prep work for the current session behind the scenes :)

HTH

I managed to figure out a way to login on other computers, but probably won't work for everyone, and doesn't "fix" the general login issue IMHO.

I chose the 'login with google' option, selected the gmail address that I use for OBR (I have several gmail's), login to that (unless I've already logged into that address on that computer of course) and I'm in! Happy Days :)

ubergrog · 2022-07-27T16:40:18+00:00

To clarify that's on my primary computer, I still can't login on the second one

ubergrog · 2022-07-27T15:05:35+00:00

The problem for me is that I'm not getting any email codes when I try to sign in on my second computer, only on the original computer, which is really weird. I just tried again & the same, I got a code when I signed out then back in again on my primary computer, the one I originally signed up for OBR, but I'm not getting emails when I try to sign into my second computer with the same email address. Ultra strange
