Module for granting players permissions to move/rotate tiles and tokens.
Usage
Once the module is activated for tiles and/or tokens via Tile Controls and Token Controls settings a new button will be added to their HUDs:
Toggle it to enable/disable the ability for players to move the tile or token they normally shouldn't be able to:
Right-clicking the button will grant the players permission to rotate them:
Movement can also be restricted to boundaries you can draw by either going to modules settings > Boundary Configuration or pressing the shortcut key Shift+B.
Insert Permission Button to HUD
This setting which is enabled by default will insert the above mentioned button to Tile/Token HUDs. However you may choose to disable this and control move and rotate permissions via flags instead:
Toggle move permissions for currently selected Tile/Tokens:
const controlled = canvas.tiles.controlled.length
? canvas.tiles.controlled
: canvas.tokens.controlled;
for (const placeable of controlled) {
const allowMove = Boolean(placeable.document.getFlag('move-that-for-you', 'allowPlayerMove'));
if (allowMove) placeable.document.unsetFlag('move-that-for-you', 'allowPlayerMove');
else placeable.document.setFlag('move-that-for-you', 'allowPlayerMove', true);
}
Toggle rotate permissions for currently selected Tile/Tokens:
const controlled = canvas.tiles.controlled.length
? canvas.tiles.controlled
: canvas.tokens.controlled;
for (const placeable of controlled) {
const allowRotate = Boolean(placeable.document.getFlag('move-that-for-you', 'allowPlayerRotate'));
if (allowRotate) placeable.document.unsetFlag('move-that-for-you', 'allowPlayerRotate');
else placeable.document.setFlag('move-that-for-you', 'allowPlayerRotate', true);
}
