Hi Folks,
So v1.2.4 is should get to you in a few days, it's time to look at the next release.
Now I'll be honest here, it's not going to be a big release, it's going to be a tidyup release because hopefully you'll have a lot more you can do with Spacecraft and thus can feed back as what you want next, plus have basic Criticals and can track Power on your ships as well.
So it's time to talk about the next book, Book 5 (skipping vehicles for a bit), the Traveller Companion will be the next book out, it's done except for the Skills system, so I'm looking at a skills system revamp, no major shock but to support the package system,.
It's also time to talk about NPC's. Now I think we've got all types, I plan to give the NPC's a bit of a revamp as well. Expand them out to make them more like PC's, Actions and Equipment tabs are on the cards. Though I will keep the equipment field for those minor NPC's that don't need all items listing.
- PC Ship Cargo Tab. Added it back in (apologies for removing it early). You can now drag and drop in Trade Goods and then set the tonnage.
- Party Sheet Ship Cargo. Add a section on the PS Ships Tab to accept Trade Goods (and custom goods), total the weight and display, show Ship total cargo capacity.
- Spacecraft Rounds Reset. Bug fix so that you can reset the round back to 0
- Actions Tab. If you drag a weapon onto this Tab, it will add it to the Equipment List, auto equip it (worn) and add it to the Weapon List.
- Weapons. Weapons will no longer appear in the Actions Tab Weapons list unless it's carried/worn, so any weapon not being carried, will be hidden. Note you will have to equip/unequip for the data to sync up if it's an existing weapon.
- Augments. Reworked how augments work, the main tab now shows Equipment modifiers, please note you'll need to cycle through not worn/carried/worn for it to update.
- PC Ship Weapon Actions. If the PC Ship has a target set, any attacks from the PC Ships Tab will also use that target
- PC Ships. Refined and Unrefined Fuels are now listed on the PC Ship Status Tab
I should also tell you that I should hopefully get to see the 2300AD updated books in the next week or so, once they're 'ready' I will drop everything to get them converted. They should be done in line with the physical media being made available.
Anyway as usual, if you want to see something comment below and let's look. I'm all game for small dev, around that listed above.
Cheers,
MBM
