Issue with Token Bar Values for npc_ac and HP Not Displaying Properly (Roll20 5E OGL NPC sheet)

I'm playing in the Dungeons of Drakkenheim module for dnd 5e.  None of the Monster Manual or Mordenkainen or Volo monsters have the correct HP or Npc_AC when pulled from the compendium.  Playing on Chrome and Firefox No VPN DND 5e  Character Sheet 2014

Hi Brian B.,  This is a known issue with some games that the Devs have been trying to track down.  The only workaround at this time is after dragging from the Compendium to the table go to the token, edit it, set it up, save, then update it to the Character (open character, click edit, select token, click Use Selected Token).  In addition to HP and AC the token's size and Dynamic Lighting settings are also not set, so make sure you set those as well.
Bummer there are so many tokens for this campaign.... But thank you. Much appreciated

Gauss, have you run into any issues trying to perform those steps with a Token-mod macro? That could make it much less tedious.

Keith, I haven't tried that but I don't expect it to be an issue.  The problem is in the drag/drop from the Compendium, not setting up the token afterwards.

Yeah, my impression was that the drag drop was the issue, but it was the solution that was tedious.Brian, if you need to set up a large number of tokens, there are lots of "token setup" macros scattered around the boards, or I or someone else can help you construct one using Token-mod, that meets your specific needs.

This issue still persists and is very frustrating, Tokens starting with HP and AC, and the correct size, is supposed to be a core feature.

Hi Ross. As Gauss has said above, this is a known issue. There are multiple threads about it. The devs have been informed. I got hit by it too, and yes, it is very frustrating.
