Distance options YARDS

So I am currently setting up a game of Shadows of the Demon Lord, and the system requires yards for all of the ranges. I look at the page options, and someone decided it would be a good idea to remove yards from the distances, could we please have this back. Several players I know don't have the head math to convert feet to yards, and I would like some continuity between my rulesets and my maps.

I don't believe yards was ever an option, was it?... there are a couple of other suggestions out there that would like the same thing; such as: <a href="https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/4836086/slug%7D" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/4836086/slug%7D</a> Not hugely popular but that doesn't mean it wouldn't be considered as part of a larger update centred around such things, a free text suffix for distances would be just as good (after all, who doesn't want parsecs in there!). Might be worth swinging your vote over that way? A low tech alternative, in the meantime, would be to issue a global macro for feet to yards translation: [[?{Feet} *&nbsp;0.333333]] Yards

Alternatively, you could just count each space as 2 yards, and ignore rounding.
