I think the monk is working properly now, at least Rhialto says so :-)

I am still working through the changes in class abilities.

During some local testing noticed that for Oon's the "random name" stuff not working.

It should be working now.

Still gonna be very rare for an Oon to retain their 'number name' with my system. Basically if no name is given for an Oon then a random race is chosen and a name based on that. If the race is Oon for the random selection then a 9 digit number is created and used for the name.

I did get a numbered Oon name recently, but likely before your changes: I'll try again in the next few days.

I've made some progress towards having multiple output formats and getting the 3e character sheet shorted out.

Here's an example of what I have so far:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/cxb2spu7fnd8au1/fighter-level-12.pdf


The pdf will accommodate more text in some fields but it is nigh unreadable. Something I need to sort out.

I am only having it only use the 4 page version if the character has spells and such.

I'm about 80-90% there with stuff. Soonish I hope to update the web app, too.

Looks good Gizmo: sadly I haven't had time to test the existing web app due to work. Seems like I could wait for the updates?

 
Yeah, I would wait a bit.

I'm pretty close to having my local program where I want in terms of filling out the 3e character sheet.

I'm going through abilities to shorten their descriptions to better fit.

I'm pondering where to note weapon mastery for fighter types. Probably in the melee/missile tables in the notes section. Which I also need to clean up some descriptions

After a party member got very dead they went with a cleric that just happened to start at 5th level.

Funny thing, the pc generator was doing really weird stuff.

As it turns it there was a glitch, error, bug in the code.

The glitch has been fixed.

I'm sorry then that I fixed the glitch! ;-)

Minor glitch.

Basically treated a 5th level cleric as if they were 4th. Which might only affect CA, TA, and spell slots.

Looking back at the email exchange with the player about the new character it looks like the things might have been "ok". The pdf's look correct for a 5th level cleric. I think I noticed when some items weren't getting set correcting in the markdown files I have my local version output (in the list of things to migrate to the web app)

Everyone, I have just updated the pc_gen app.

A quick test shows it working (for very simple values of working).

The biggest changes are adding support for output to the 3e PDF character sheet or to a markdown file.

Markdown is a text file that is can then be rendered into HTML and many other formats.

I have also added prepared spell lists.

The are 2 ways to do this.

The first way is to add stuff inside <>'s next to a spell.

For example, Verg the cryomancer has this for his spell list:

Spells:
     - Magic Ice Dart<1,1,1,2 test>
     - Freezing Hands<1>
     - Detect Magic
     - Hold Portal<1,2 test>
     - Identify
     - Ice Axe<1,1,2 test>
     - Glitterdust<1,1>
     - Ray of Enfeeblement<2 test>
     - Slow<1,1,1,2 test,2 test,2 test>

This will create 2 spell lists. One will have a "name" of "1" and the other "2 test".

The first list sorted asciibetically (yes that's an IT word) and only the first list is added to the prepared spells tables on the PDF files.

Another way that is probably a bit clearer is like so:

'prepared spells 1 offensive':
  - Magic Ice Dart
  - Magic Ice Dart
  - Magic Ice Dart
  - Freezing Hands
  - Hold Portal
  - Ice Axe
  - Ice Axe
  - Glitterdust
  - Glitterdust
  - Slow
  - Slow
  - Slow

'prepared spells 2 testing':
  - Detect Magic
  - Identify
  - Identify
  - Identify
  - Identify
  - Ice Axe
  - Ice Axe
  - Glitterdust
  - Ray of Enfeeblement
  - Slow
  - Slow
  - Slow

I need to update the example character sheet (and make that documentation "better") but give things a try and let me know what breaks or is incorrect.
