(I split this off from Allowing players to have ownership over tokens since this is a distinct, separate feature request)
This has come up a number of times. I’m mostly for this idea, but I have a concern and I think the problem this solves might be solved via a separate feature that’s planned. First, my concern…
I think the mobile interface I envision for players won’t need a toolbar (ie: the user won’t need to switch between different modes while using Shmeppy). I think this modeless interface will be much harder to create if players can do these things with tokens, so I’d like to finish mobile support for players and only then try to add this (if indeed I’m going to) so that I have a better grasp of how it’ll complicate the interface.
And now, the other feature I think will solve this same problem…
Whenever I’ve gotten this request, it’s around trying to let players create their own tokens so you don’t have to. Useful when using tokens to track initiative or when creating new maps. I believe the ability to Copy + Paste tokens (including across maps) will also solve this problem pretty tidily.
These two factors together makes me very inclined to leave this work on the shelf for awhile…
