Traveller (Mongoose Publications version)

[Trenloe]

The biggest problem is getting players...nobody seems interested.

Look outside of the FG forums - on Traveller orientated forums. You'll have to then convince people to give Fantasy Grounds a go, but getting Traveller players to game on FG might be easier than getting FG gamers to play Traveller.

Btw I used your little 'exampleNumber' extension, works a treat inside Traveller (added it now to WOiN). (Btw have you checked your email )

I have a group ready to play Traveller but I'm waiting for the Mongoose ruleset to be published. And I volunteered to beta test it, because I have a group of players already...

PM me here, so that I can ask the powers that be, about Beta testers, the more that Beta it the better I say. We started the beta at the weekend, I have a long list to sort, done some already but during the normal dev time (few hours a few nights a week) it's WOiN atm, Traveller at the weekends...

Where in the world are you though... so I can make suggestions.

Been fixing some of the issues today whilst listening to the cricket. Seems the manner in which Equipment is dragged around has changed, so re-writing that at the moment. *Fixed it all* here's a screeny:

Attachment 19229

Anyway this is the progress today:
WORKING ON:
Fixing Encumbrance

WORK COMPLETED:
To do - Remove skills list and allow skills to be dragged in from a list, add a default skill of 'Unskilled, -3'
Update - Career History, sort column widths so more space on Title and Event
To do - When rolling a skill roll, show 8+ as a [SUCCESS] and anything less a [FAIL]
To do - Change the dice colours to that of the Dice palette for each user (see how Savage Worlds does this) (CANNOT BE DONE)
Fix - Party Sheet & FX button errors
Fix - Dragging of Equipment to the character sheet (broken for some reason)
Fix - Linking error, check Jack Armour window
To do - Add the extra descriptions to the Equipment windows
To do - Add modifiers onto the desktop and link to the dice rolls

WORK TO DO:
Fix - Scout Career layout, there's a #th showing
To do - Add Career as draggable items to Character Sheets (under Career History)
To do - Add Homeworld as a draggable item to the Character Sheet and add default skills for upto 2 Homeworld types
To do - Introduction - change 'see page 40' to the link of the section.
Update - Step 4 of the Character Generation Checklist needs the wording changing, the PDF is also wrong.
Update - Check Aging Table

I hope over the next week to complete all this as we're playing next weekend, I'm converting a scenario as well which I'll add to the ruleset (assuming I'm allowed).

Cheers

Lovely, a bit of a distance from myself, but not that far in the scale of space.

Did a little bit more today, fixing some errors in the parsing of the manual.

Will post an updated list in the week, back to WOiN though from tomorrow.

I also have a group on players that are waiting for this module. Has Beta testing started?

I got yelled at when I suggested this. Apparently using dice modifiers for task difficulty (while mathematically identical) is somehow wrong when it should be the target number changing... :-)
