Hover Distance

Overview

Shows a compact distance label when you hover a token. The label uses the system’s gold-and-dark-blue style and the same narrative range categories as the ruler and templates.

Getting started

  1. Open Game Settings → Configure Settings → Daggerheart
  2. Ensure Range Measurement is enabled
  3. Optionally toggle the scene flag “Disable Narrative Measurement” in the Scene Config grid tab
  4. Select a token and hover another token to see the label

Features

  • Uses narrative ranges (Melee, Very Close, Close, Far, Very Far)
  • Renders above the hovered token with readable styling
  • Respects system setting Range Measurement Enabled
  • Respects scene flag Disable Narrative Measurement

Behavior

  • The first controlled token is the origin
  • Distance is measured center-to-center through the scene grid
  • The text displays the narrative label for the measured distance

Notes

  • Colors follow --dh-color-gold, --dh-color-dark-blue, and --dh-color-off-white
  • Integrates with the existing range measurement so labels remain consistent
