Rideable

The module adds functionality for tokens to ride one another.

Basic use:

To mount, select a group of tokens and press 'm' or use the 'Mount' macro while targeting(or hovering over) another token. To dismount, select all tokens you wish to dismount and press 'n' or use the "Unmount" macro. While controlling a ridden token and targeting one of its riders 'Unmount' will cause only the targeted token to dismount.

Upon mounting the module will spread the mounted tokens on the ridden token and increase their z-height relative to the ridden token. The mounted tokens will always move with the ridden token. Upon dismounting the z-height of the previously mounted tokens will be reduced again.

Ridden tokens can themself ride other tokens.

A tutorial for some of the features can be found here.

Since v2.13.0 Rideable also has a feature for Token following.

Settings:

Compatibility:

The module should be compatible with all game systems on Foundry v10 and v11, though a few features are only available for the Pf2e system. Movement modules such as the Drag Ruler (including routinglib) should work fine with the module. If you encounter any bugs please let me know.

Explicit compatability:

• routinglib:
  • Additional option for world setting Following algorithm: routinglib
• FoundryVTT Arms Reach/Arms Reach:
  • Additional setting "Use Arms Reach distance": to use the "Arms Reach" distance instead of the set Mounting distance
• Stairways:
  • Supports both in- and cross-scene stairways
  • Riders will follow their ridden token through stairways
  • If the option "Move ridden Token" is active, the ridden token will follow its riders through stairways
  • Following tokens will automatically be teleported when the followed token teleports
  • If a users (standard) character gets teleported in one of this ways, the user will switch scenes
  • If the option "Prevent movement" for rider tokens is active, riders will be prevented from using stairways (GMs can override this)
• Wall-Height:
  • Additional setting "Use token height": to use the ridden tokens height instead of the "Riding Height" setting
  • If the above setting is activated the ridden tokens elevation will automatically be updated should the ridden tokens height change
• Lock & Key:
  • Has to be activated with the setting "Lock & Key integration"
  • Rideable tokens are lockeable
  • Locked tokens can not be mounted or unmounted
• Tagger:
  • Has to be activated with the setting "Tagger integration"
  • Adding the Tag "Rideable:{TokenID}" to a token/tile will mount the appropiate token
  • Removing this tag will unmount the token
• DFreds Convenient Effects:
  • Must be activated with the world setting DFreds Convenient Effects Integration
  • Allows for effects to be applied to mounted and grappled tokens
  • Allows for custom mounted adn grappled effects to be set
• Chris's Premades
  • Must be activated with the world setting DFreds Convenient Effects Integration
  • Allows for effects to be applied to mounted and grappled tokens
  • Allows for custom mounted adn grappled effects to be set
• Token Attacher:
  • "Riding loops" should not be possible
  • Adds token form "from attached tiles" to use attached tiles as the form of this token
  • The attached tiles should NOT be set as rideable, it will not directly cause any bugs but strange behaviour
  • The attached tiles set token form will be respected and combined to create the full rideable area
  • When using keys or macros to mount the attached tiles can be hovered instead of the token
  • The mounting distance will be measured from all attached tiles (only one has to be in range)
  • Adds tile form "No form/ignore" to enhance above feature
• Monk's Active Tile Triggers
  • Adds Rideable action "Mount this tile" to mount the triggering tokens to this tile
  • Adds Rideable action "Mount" to mount a set of tokens to specified token/tile
  • Adds Rideable action "Unmount" to unmount a set of tokens
  • Adds Rideable action "Unmount riders" to unmount the riders of a given token/tile
  • Adds Rideable action "Toggle mount" to change teh riding state of a set of tokens regarding a given token/tile
  • Adds Rideable filter "Filter riders of mount" to filter the riders of a given token/tile
  • Adds Rideable filter "Filter riders" to filter tokens that currently are riding
  • Adds Rideable filter "Filter ridden" to filter tokens that currently are ridden
