FGU: Capture movement events on maps (arrow keys)

**celestian** · October 30th, 2020, 07:37

Is there a means to capture the event of movement with arrow keys? I've a need to capture (and do something) whenever a arrow key is pressed to move a token. Also possibly the same thing for when a locked token's movement is accepted (and it slides around the map).

Not really looking for when a token is clicked and dragged but specifically for arrow key movement and token (locked) accepted movement.

There's nothing like that. There is only the tokeninstance.onMove event that should be triggered when a token moves.

I figured as much. Would be nice to have, at the very least something we can hook into when a locked move is accepted.... tho both would be brilliant

The onMove event is essentially the same thing; except that it triggers on drag moves as well.
