 October 22, 2008 - 9:31am | Refer to: Chits for building your own deck plans. What type of chits? Doors Console Tables ?? |
 October 22, 2008 - 10:05am | Any and all of the above. I need to post mine (beds, workpod, stove, sink, etc from my OE game ships). Ad Astra Per Ardua!

October 22, 2008 - 10:17am | We need a standard size of the chits and a standard deck plan, right? Here is a 20x20 deck. Each square is 20x20 pixels.  |
October 22, 2008 - 10:53am | I've actually been using (as was suggested by someone else, don't remember who at the moment) a higher resolution, namely 50 pixels per meter. I've been making all mine to that scale. Ad Astra Per Ardua!

I've been making all mine to that scale. Please to be posting a sample so I can follow. I'd like to include these as standard sizes for the Star Frontiersman - make sense? |
 October 22, 2008 - 3:39pm | Dungeon Crafter 1 uses 20x20 pixel tiles/chits as a base setting. Time flies when your having rum. Im a government employee, I dont goof-off. I constructively abuse my time. |
April 22, 2009 - 10:15am | Tom, Did you post your chits? ------------------------ We have a few projects that could be combined or at least referenced to; The Chit Factory <----> Ships of the Frontier (Build a reference between the two projects) Ships of the Frontier <------> Online Ship Generator (I propose we move all the documents/ships from my project to yours and remove my project.) Thoughts? |
April 22, 2009 - 10:17am | Also.... Should we continue to use squares or switch to hexes? In my opinion squares seem "boxy" when building deck plans. I feel that I have to fit something inside a square and line it up whereas hexagons would allow me to rotate an object freely. ....might just me be....  |
April 22, 2009 - 6:25pm | Tom, I don't think I ever did. I'll have to get around to that.Did you post your chits?

I'm a math oriented kind of guy and think better in cartesian grids rather than honeycombs. I don't see the grid as a limiting factor in the layout. In fact, when I make my deck plans, I don't add in the grid until everything else is laid out. I see it as simply a reference for moving your pieces on the map. Ad Astra Per Ardua!
