What are the flags for the variant art so we can trigger changes with Monk's Active Tile Triggers

[stevenagl12]

Alright, possible a dumb question, but what are the token flags for the variant art images that you have selected for the image so that you can assign them to a Monk's Active Tile Trigger and be able to change their appearance automatically?

What TVA images are you talking about? Shared (green arrows)?

Yes, when you have assigned the variants for an actor, is there an internal flag to be able to change them? Basically I am trying to be able to cause mimic tokens to switch to an active state, or changelings to release their true form on a button click.

I'm not sure exactly what you're trying to accomplish here, but the green arrow marked images are stored on the actor and so can be accessed like so:

_token.actor.flags['token-variants']?.variants

[stevenagl12]

I'm trying to use a monk's active tile trigger to alter the variant image with a single clock so I can do 20 tokens at once, instead of individually changing each.

I'm trying to do something similar, but with the Eladrin Seasons.

Here's what I got (it's not working): I wrote a macro that creates/updates a flag inside token-variants namespace.

// Updates the flag "eladrinSeason" inside "token-variants" module namespace
const actorId = "4VQ2iNTYhOymlRvw";
var actor = game.actors.get(actorId);
var seasons = ["Outono", "Inverno", "Primavera", "Verao"];

var currEladrinSeason =  seasons[Math.floor(Math.random() * 4)];

const updateData = {
  ['flags.token-variants.eladrinSeason']: currEladrinSeason
};

actor.update(updateData);

(I'll add an image of said flag here later)

Then, I setup the token images

And lastly I used the "Mappings" option for the token to create conditions based on that flag I created.

The thing is, the expressions for Mapping don't seem to work properly. I tried adding script logs for when they are met or not, and they did run immediatly after I clicked "save & close", and ran 11 times. I was testing with just two tokens, and it was supposed to show Token A, and it showed Token B, I was using the example of "hp>50%" and "hp<=50%" for this test. But then it stops, and doesn't check for later updates on said flag anymore.

The string comparisson also doesn't work, even though the module's tutorial uses a similar expression in its tutorial

I suppose working with JS inside the Expression could be a solution, but I haven't found any mentions about what is the expected return for that in de docs.
