"Launch/Re-join as player" not working

Was hoping to check what was visible to my players, but it would seem this feature isn't actually working.  Neither "launch as player" from outside teh game or "Re-join as player" seems to change anything; I'm always teh GM with full viewing and control over all character sheets and full GM view.

I'll try to replicate this when I get home.  I can recommend setting up a Test account with an alternate email address. I have one, AndrewTBP, which I join to my games to test things for players.

Hi Mako, As you've discovered, "Rejoin as player" and "Launch asd Player" still retains your ability to see things that normally only the GM can see. For simply checking line-of-sight, if a token that has vision I select it and use CTRL+L to see what that token can see. Too really see what your players will be seeing, I suggest creating a free dummy account as Andrew R. suggested. ands invite that account to your game.  I often log in and open the game with my Pro account in Chrome (my preferred browser) then log in and enter the game with my free account using Firefox, keeping both browsers open so I can see what's happening in real time as I set up maps and encounters. (You can do the same using the different profiles in the same browser, although I've found it simpler just using different browsers.) The link below gives detailed instructions on how to set up and use dummy accounts. Creating a Dummy Account (and why)
