The placed token will by default:
- emit Bright Light for 20 feet
- emit Low Light for 20 feet
After placement, the light settings can be changed in the token settings like any other Token.
If you've already created a number of Characters with default tokens with preset lighting, this feature doesn't bring you much, as those already. It's more to give a quick & universal tool to place them in any game, like t Dice Rolling GUI is for quick rolls.
