Is there a way to have players share what their characters can see, without sharing character sheets?

What I'd like is for my players to each see on the map whatever is in the field of vision of any character in the party. Or to put it another way, if one PC can see something, then all the players can see it, regardless of vision, dynamic lighting, line of sight, fog of war, etc. In effect, everyone would have one shared field of view. But I'd like to do this without giving everyone access to everyone else's character sheets. Is there a way to do this?

There isn't a way built into Roll20's user interface.  However, this could be done relatively easily with an API script. Being a Pro Subscriber, you could post a script request in the API forum or give it a shot yourself. The basic idea is to create an invisible token that follows each PC around and duplicates its sight settings but has control by all players.

You could probably use the torch script that's out there.. Sorry I don't have a link.
Okay that works, thanks!
