 September 2, 2007 - 6:12pm | I'm considering the mechanics behind a universal character generator for Star Frontiers. My idea is to have a number of optional modules (I'll call them "Rules Sets") defined, and give users the ability to add their own Rules Sets to accommodate their individual Projects or ideas. So you'll see something that looks kinda like:
At first, I plan on not giving very good tools to create a Rules Set (It'll just be one big text box where you'll have to provide the data in a very specific format), but later I'll provide a more capable input form for the creation of Rules Sets. This is the plan anyways. So, I want to make sure I give people the tools they'll need to create NPCs for adventures and PCs for games as well. Please let me know what you'd like to see as a feature. I won't promise all features will be present, but I want to hear from all of you. 3. We wear sungoggles during the day. Not because the sun affects our

 September 12, 2007 - 5:59pm | As soon as we get some of the optional stuff included, I'm going to go on a character-generating spree, probably. I'm not worried about adding my own rule sets -- I know I can count on you for that -- so I'm just waiting for when you have the time to follow up on this.
