When using Target Token Helper for save spells, the damage highlight doesn't always appear.

I've seen it work with: Scatter Scree, Timber, Electric Arc, Caustic Blast, Frostbite, Flourishing Flora, Floating Flame, Rime Slick

But it doesn't show up for: Puff of Poison, Grim Tendrils, Gritty Wheeze, Chilling Spray, Ignite Fireworks.

I don't see any errors in the console and I've tried making sure the spells are the latest versions from the compendiums.

The reason is because those spells don't have their save tagged as Basic Save, which are the only saves that i can be sure of when it comes to the whole double/half/regular damage.

Even though a spell like Puff of Poison clearly works as a Basic Save when it comes to the damage part, it is not technically a Basic Save.

For your own convenience, you can manually check the Basic checkbox and take advantage of the module's highlighting, but there is nothing i can do about it on my end (unless i was willing to always use the highlights no matter the save type, which i am not).
