  • Get the explicit permission level that a User has over this Document, a value in CONST.DOCUMENT_OWNERSHIP_LEVELS. Compendium content ignores the ownership field in favor of User role-based ownership. Otherwise, Documents use granular per-User ownership definitions and Embedded Documents defer to their parent ownership.

    This method returns the value recorded in Document ownership, regardless of the User's role, for example a GAMEMASTER user might still return a result of NONE if they are not explicitly denoted as having a level.

    To test whether a user has a certain capability over the document, testUserPermission should be used.

    Returns any

    A numeric permission level from CONST.DOCUMENT_OWNERSHIP_LEVELS

  • Test whether a Token has a specific status effect.

    The migrated system data object

  • Move the Token through the given waypoint(s).

    Parameters

    Returns Promise<boolean>

    A Promise that resolves to true if the Token was moved, otherwise resolves to false

  • Pause the movement of this Token document. The movement can be resumed after being paused. Only the User that initiated the movement can pause it. Returns a callback that can be used to resume the movement later. Only after all callbacks and keys have been called the movement of the Token is resumed. If the callback is called within the update operation workflow, the movement is resumed after the workflow.

    Returns null | TokenResumeMovementCallback

    The callback to resume movement if the movement was or is paused, otherwise null

    // This is an Execute Script Region Behavior that makes the token invisible
    // On TOKEN_MOVE_IN...
    if ( !event.user.isSelf ) return;
    const resumeMovement = event.data.token.pauseMovement();
    event.data.token.toggleStatusEffect("invisible", {active: true});
    const resumed = await resumeMovement();
  • Pause the movement of this Token document. The movement can be resumed after being paused. Only the User that initiated the movement can pause it. Returns a promise that resolves to true if the movement was resumed by TokenDocument#resumeMovement with the same key that was passed to this function. Only after all callbacks and keys have been called the movement of the Token is resumed. If the callback is called within the update operation workflow, the movement is resumed after the workflow.

    Parameters

    Returns null | Promise<boolean>

    The continuation promise if the movement was paused, otherwise null

    // This is an Execute Script Region Behavior of a pressure plate that activates a trap
    // On TOKEN_MOVE_IN...

    event.data.token.pauseMovement(this.parent.uuid);
    }
    if ( game.user.isActiveGM ) {
    const trapUuid; // The Region Behavior UUID of the trap
    const trapBehavior = await fromUuid(trapUuid);
    await trapBehavior.update({disabled: false});
    event.data.token.resumeMovement(event.data.movement.id, this.parent.uuid);
    }

      The ID of the recorded movement to undo

    Returns Promise<boolean>

    True if the movement was undone, otherwise false

  • Split the Token movement path through the Region into its segments. The Token and the Region must be in the same Scene.

    Implementations of this function are restricted in the following ways:

    • The segments must go through the waypoints.
    • The from position matches the to position of the succeeding segment.
    • The Token must be contained (w.r.t. TokenDocument#testInsideRegion) within the Region at the from and to of MOVE segments.
    • The Token must be contained (w.r.t. TokenDocument#testInsideRegion) within the Region at the to position of ENTER segments.
    • The Token must be contained (w.r.t. TokenDocument#testInsideRegion) within the Region at the from position of EXIT segments.
    • The Token must not be contained (w.r.t. TokenDocument#testInsideRegion) within the Region at the from position of ENTER segments.
    • The Token must not be contained (w.r.t. TokenDocument#testInsideRegion) within the Region at the to position of EXIT segments.
    • This function must not use prepared field values that are animated. In particular, it must use the source instead of prepared values of the following fields: x, y, elevation, width, height, and shape.

    Parameters

    Returns TokenRegionMovementSegment[]

    The movement split into its segments

  • Assign a "flag" to this document. Flags represent key-value type data which can be used to store flexible or arbitrary data required by either the core software, game systems, or user-created modules.

    Each flag should be set using a scope which provides a namespace for the flag to help prevent collisions.

    Flags set by the core software use the "core" scope. Flags set by game systems or modules should use the canonical name attribute for the module Flags set by an individual world should "world" as the scope.

    Flag values can assume almost any data type. Setting a flag value to null will delete that flag.

    Parameters

    • scope: string

      The flag scope which namespaces the key

    • key: string

      The flag key

    • value: any

      The flag value

    Returns boolean

    True if the movement was or is stopped, otherwise false

  • Test whether the Token is inside the Region. This function determines the state of TokenDocument#regions and foundry.documents.RegionDocument#tokens. The Token and the Region must be in the same Scene.

    Implementations of this function are restricted in the following ways:

    • If the bounds (given by TokenDocument#getSize) of the Token do not intersect the Region, then the Token is not contained within the Region.
    • If the Token is inside the Region a particular elevation, then the Token is inside the Region at any elevation within the elevation range of the Region.
    • This function must not use prepared field values that are animated. In particular, it must use the source instead of prepared values of the following fields: x, y, elevation, width, height, and shape.

    If this function is overridden, then TokenDocument#segmentizeRegionMovementPath must be overridden too.

    If an override of this function uses Token document fields other than x, y, elevation, width, height, and shape, TokenDocument#_couldRegionsChange must be overridden to return true for changes of these fields. If an override of this function uses non-Token properties other than Scene#grid.type and Scene#grid.size, foundry.documents.Scene#updateTokenRegions must be called when any of those properties change.

    Parameters

    Returns boolean

    Is inside the Region?
