    Hi All,
    So I have a character with a pet they can ride. Is there a way to move them together?
    I am aware one can make a tile like a wagon and tie things to it.

    Any ideas on how to give player control of moving the mount and it automatically dragging his character with it?

    Thanks

    Currently the only way to do that is have the "mount" as a Floating Tile. You can sticky the tile and have the creature move with it, but of course the Mount token is un-targetable and has no stats as it is not a creature.

    On the slate (no date on implementation yet), is an option to make a token sticky like you do with tiles. To achieve exactly what you suggest.

    Hello, Magnetord, here's what I have done in past. Make a character token with a visual that merges the horse and the character, used only for moving. Use that to move. Place their 2 individual tokens off to side of map and click on those as needed for attacks, actions,etc.
    -or-
    Place mount in initiative before character and move accordingly to keep from leaving their "trails" lingering. Out of initiative place character token on mount token, highlight or grab both tokens and while holding down your SHIFT key move all tokens together at same time.
