TokenNameNumber

Ok, I admit, I am being very lazy here. I am using some of the WOTC published adventures along side the shaped script and character sheet. I make a lot of use of the Token Name Nuber script, but when i set up the tokens already on the maps to also use the %%NUMBERED%% syntax, I then have to re-add the tokens to the page or they just show the name with %%NUMBERED%% on the end eg Thorn Slinger %%NUMBERED%%: Is there a way to update all these tokens without having to re-add them to the map? Thanks in advance

hmm....  Try this on a copy of the game and see if it does what you want? on('ready',function(){ "use strict"; _.chain(findObjs({type:'graphic'})) .map((o)=>{ return { token:o, character:getObj('character',o.get('represents')) }; }) .reject((o)=>_.isUndefined(o.character)) .reject((o)=>o.character.get('controlledby').length) .reduce((m,o)=>{ let pageid=o.token.get('pageid'); m[pageid]=m[pageid]||{}; m[pageid][o.character.id]=m[pageid][o.character.id]||[]; m[pageid][o.character.id].push(o); return m; },{}) .each((cs,pageid)=>{ _.each(cs,(cos,cid)=>{ let n=0; _.each(cos,(o)=>{ o.token.set({ name: o.character.get('name').replace(/%%NUMBERED%%/,++n) }); }); }); }); });

If it doesn't, I'll see about adding a command to TokenNameNumber to search for tokens with the %%NUMBERED%% in the name that haven't been renumbered.

Thank you, As i say, jsut me be very lazy.

The other thing you could try is selecting all of them and hitting ctrl-x ctrl-v to delete and recreate them.  That should trigger TokenNameNumber to rename them.

i didnt think of that, that code i am afraid did not work, i added it as a new script? sadly there is no cut, only copy, and pasting then gives a massive off-set

yeah. bummer.  try the Cut/Paste route?

no cut only copy sadly

ok, I'll see about adding that as a command to TNN.

Thanks Aaron. Really do appreciate it. 

For anyone else trying, i have found copying and pasting works, deleting the originals and moving the group back en-masse works

Great!  I'll still see about a command, but GenCon has slowed me down =D

I'm not jealous at all of that!!
