    Yes HeroHelper Suggestions Please

    Slowly but surely I'll finish HeroHelper 2.0, the long overdue update to HeroHelper 1.5

    Right now I need input on what you would like to see in a Phase Tracker section (There are 7 sections - Phase Tracker is just one)

    Phase Tracker keeps track of each phase, who's turn it is to go, etc.

    So far I have:

    List of Dex, SPD, Stun, END and Body easily editable and updateable.

    A section which tells if a character: Is Knocked Down, Stunned, Knocked Out, Has Delayed and a section to write notes.

    A section to enter new characters and the ablility to save the information.

    Export filter for Hero Designer to Import your character straight into HeroHelper.


    What would you like to see?

    Thanks for the input.

    How about a 'cheat checker'? It'd work like this: have a field to type in a characters roll on a 3d6. Then, the computer can notice if somebody is rolling unusually low (there's only a 25% chance of sombody actually doing this well! bill, let me see your dice!)

    Please read "The Emergency State" by David Unger. It's a history of US foreign policy in the last hundred years, and I thought it was amazing.

    Interesting Idea and pretty easy to implement. I'll see what I can do.

    More ideas are welcomed.

    Where is this accessible? Sorry, I know it's come up before, and I've been meaning to mess with it.

    Re: HeroHelper Suggestions Please

    A bit late, but I'm just getting into this kind of tool now (it beats writing my own ).

    If you're looking to add a phase tracker, you might want to take a look at the Hero Tracker tool, which can be found at http://www.geocities.com/operation_r...star/dwnld.htm. It seems to have several interesting features, and I'm not sure if it's currently in active development or not. So, incorporating these features into Hero Helper might be very worthwhile. If you want to do this, I can think of a few things I'd like to see added. If not, that's OK too.

    Addendum: Another such tool is GSPC, an old, DOS-based program available at http://www.wellington.org/champions/gspcinfo.htm.

    Ah, I had heard of but not seen this I think. It does remind me a lot of the Pascal one I wrote way back around that time as well. I wish I had redeveloped it as I had planned.
