    Ahhh... ok. That makes sense. I think I get it now.

    But, in that case, the only way of knowing that it is 'local' (or Campaign) data is the lack of the 'edit' icon? (and, I guess that was also true in 3.1.7, right?)

    Thanks!

    Well, yes, I certainly get that concept (as I did with the tabs). I was struggling with the co-existence of the "(None)" Group and the "Rise of the Runelords Chapter 2: The Skinsaw Murders" Group. But you have cleared that up for me now.

    Thanks, again.

    p.s. So sorry to clutter up this thread with these questions. I know that this is not what the thread was for. My question just got out of hand...

    Yes and yes. And it's not an edit icon as such, it's a module icon - a book for an unedited module entry and a book with a quill for an edited module entry. See the icon explanations here: https://www.fantasygrounds.com/wiki/...aign_Data_List

    Yeah! Wasn't sure you caught that in the other thread and knew about it since I hadn't posted it elsewhere. Thanks for this

    Yeah, I had to write new lookup code for spells by name, since the original code is based on Par5E tag lookups.

    The really hard one was the language issue. I had to have 4 instances of FG on 3 computers to recreate that one.

    Indeed, the author of OotA did a fine job of separating out the various creatures into different tabs in versions prior to 3.2. I can see, however that the category for the Monsters in this module which original in the Monster Manual. However all is not lost; just rename the Monster Manual - Creatures group to OoTA MM Creatures or whatever else will help you distinguish the group.
    If there is something that you would like to see in Fantasy Grounds that isn't currently part of the software or if there is something you think would improve a ruleset then add your idea here https://www.fantasygrounds.com/featu...rerequests.php

    NPC monster can be Drag and Droped to any new created Group in my example I created group "aTEST"
    but when monster is first time "moved" then move and change complete its position. What results in missing from group which originate
    (in my tests and example this NPC will be missing from DD MM Monster Manual or any other modules.)

    Example:
    I moved NPC Goblin through Drag n Drop directly to my new crated "aTEST" group.
    Original group DD MM Monster Manual stays completly without this monster. And in aTEST appears NPC Goblin without link
    on source module as obvious DD MM Monster Manual (from which I draw it).

    Then after reverting changes for module (in my case it was meaned DD MM Monster Manual) it moved Goblin NPC back to original module and his positon in created group "aTEST" stays clean without this kind of monster (no Goblin NPC there).

    But now when I do same thing, drag and drop same creature (NPC Goblin) to aTEST group it created again NPC Goblin but this time I can find same monster in DD MM Monster Manual group - original monster. No reverting changes needed. I have one goblin in DD MM Monster manual and new created NPC Goblin copy of this monster in my aTEST folder. Ready for my adventure ;o)

    Now I do same thing with NPC Goblin Boss and it happened again. He miss me from DD MM Monster manual group and appear in my
    aTEST folder.

    So remember first time when Drag and drop concrete creature from any module directly to new created group/folder it moved NPC and need reverting changes but second time it correctly create only copy of this monster on new place, and this monster stays in his folder from which originate too. I understand logic how it works because when user want create new copy of monster for his adventure group must drag and drop NPC creature in same module and only then this new created NPC move to new "aTEST" folder.
    But now dont know is it bug (which need protect first moving NPC out of current module position) or only simple new way how to manage NPCs.

    REMEMBER - till we get answer from developers
    When monster is first time "moved" then move and change complete its position, so do it over same module (in window where you have all Monsters from same module - NOT ALL NPCs from all your active modules!!!) only then move copy to location you choose (new group).
