    Setting - Night combat
    Instance of issue - Dynamic icons with moving FoW circles

    background - The party was doing a rushed job trying to find the missing captives stationed on a river for extraction. They pushed themselves to reach the captives before the ships arrived.

    It's a night mission, 2 of the 7 members were human, so I had to move the FoW circles (size 20 painted circles) to new locations because they represented the torches they were walking around.

    3 tokens are inside the painted circle, the person with the light source moves.
    I move the painted FoW circle to the new location
    The person with the light source is invisible on the client screen
    The two tokens who haven't moved are still visible on the client screen.
    I would push the broadcast, it still wouldn't change who was visible and who disappeared.

    Please see the attachments to this forum for examples.

    The fourth picture isn't posting

    I know this issue will be resolved with the new client coming out, but I wanted to let you know what's going on with the current version. I usually don't run into problems, so I like to always see if I can replicate it.

    Moving Fog of War area then re-broadcasting doesn't move the Fog of War area? hmm.. checking into this.

    The fog of war light source will move, but the tokens dynamically do not change with the painted circle being moved.

    Map properties:

    Hide Negative space is checked
    Create Painted FoW, make it visible
    Put dynamic tokens inside the FoW.
    Move one token then the FoW to the new location
    The new location will have invisible tokens, but the original tokens that did not move will still be visible to the client even after a broadcast.
