What happened?

Chat bubbles above tokens display in plain English. Should display in the Font used in the chat for the selected language.

Reproduction Steps

  1. Open foundry as GM or log in as player.
  2. Send chat message with a Language selected.
  3. Observe how chat bubble pop-up above token speaker displays in plain English.

Following relevant Core settings must be enabled:

  • Enable Chat Bubbles
  • Pan to Token Speaker

Message displays above token like so:

But displays in the chat window just fine:

Usage was normal:

Behaviour occurs with GM selected token, or with Player selected (and owned) token.

Module config tabs are as follows:

To see the bubbles scrambled as a GM you need the "Scramble Messages for GM" setting enabled, though you won't see the bubbles scrambled if you're not controlling a token (having a token selected).

Try one of these:

  • Test it as a player user.
  • Toggle that setting on and have another user send a message while you are controlling a token that doesn't understand its language.

Hi! Thanks for responding to this so fast.

I've been able to get this to work now, I think this is intended behaviour rather than a bug - sorry for my mistake!

Scramble Messages for GM was an important setting to have ON, and the GM is required to have a token that does not know the spoken language selected/controlled. The GM(token) sees the language in the polyglot script as intended. Also works with player 1 and player 2 in the same way - more importantly I think this also works when logged in as a player and with no token selected. Probably this is the Scramble Out of Character messages setting?

Regardless, clearly this issue arose from my misunderstanding of the core functionality of the mod, so I thank you for your patience and apologise for any undue concern.
