Decided to subscribe to make use of dynamic lighting. Testing it out tonight, and the sight goes out the backside. Most if not all tokens I've used have the stick you can rotate the token around with on the back side, but the sight from the dynamic lighting has it starting there. How can I fix this?

Right-click a token and select flip vertical under advances. Might solve it for you.

That does fix it, but this still begs the question...all tokens start with the stick to the rear be default-why does the light start at the stick? This is backwards and is going to be a bit time consuming flipping every token each time I want to use vision :\

It's because there is no way for the devs to know what orientation a token will be in by default. The angle has to start somewhere.

The very first sets of tokens were created in the opposite direction and so the dynamic lighting sight feature was setup to face that way. Later on various artist changed the facing direction till you get what it is now.

Ok, that makes sense. Hoping the devs flip it though to make it a bit easier :p

I hope so too but it is way down on the list they probably have as it is a feature that is functioning but is just slightly inconviently set up.
