Well, okay, weird story. I did what you suggested, corrected the code, and it worked. Then, later, it just stopped working. What it's doing now is it actually behaves like a drawing in that it doesn't have grid snap or any UI elements popping out of it, but it still retains the bar and nameplate it spawns with. I've tried restarting my browser, making another backup of a campaign that never messed with this script, and even tried with a brand new script. Same problem across the board. I've no idea why it suddenly messed up. Just to be sure, here's the script exactly as I have it in the API window. /*
This is an improved Summoning API that was built upon.

Special thanks to Brian for helping me with some of the script.
I hope this serves others well, do not hesistate to contact me regarding bugs or improvements.

Usage:
1. Select token you want the monster to appear next to.
2. In chat, type "!summon (name of monster) (number to summon)" without brackets or quotation marks.
3. By default the monster will take up a 5x5 ft square (medium or small creature). To summon larger creatures add a letter to the end of the message:
F= Fine, D = Diminutive, T= Tiny, L = large, H = Huge, G = Gargantuan, C = Colossal, cust = customised size (this tag must be followed by two numbers, see examples).
4. You can also summon a torch that will give 40 ft of vision with 20 ft of dim light (torch must be in the name).
NB. The name of the monster must be in your character sheet list and the image must be the token image you wish to use (marketplace images do not work).
Examples:
!summon torch
!summon eagle
!summon eagle 2
!summon eagle 1d3
!summon eagle 1d3+1
!summon cave troll 1d3+1 H
!summon flame sphere cust 140 140
NB. When making a custom size every 70 = 1 square.
