Corjay, you rock. Cool

I like this one because it's all javascript, easy to modify.

I don't know how this one works, but the code is right there for you to copy directly:

List of resources for making worlds:

I don't know how much help this page will be, but it's Traveller:
http://www.vrhome.com/traveller/software.htm
A fairly detailed article on Traveller gas giants:

This might be helpful:

P.S.: Coming across stuff, I think Steve Jackson Games has a lot of people trolling around in their forums and the net in general checking for current and potential license violations. They have a right to protect their stuff, but I think they're spending way too much of their resources doing it.

Thanks for the link. I'll compare it to the document I've been working on offline.

I decided to split the Star doc and Planet doc into separate downloads.
I finished the final version of the Star Doc and need to upload it.
It'll be a least a month before the Planet doc is completed.
