    I suspect this will be downloaded very extensively - one of the first things I show my players when I've convinced them to have a look at 6E.

    Thank you ever so much.

    Thanks for the conversion. I still don't understand a few aspects of why things were done, but, that's the beauty of having both, can always change things as I need to.

    I'm guessing that was meant to be humorous, but those with less than a year of programming experience and/or with a post count greater than 1000 on these boards might have difficulty with it.
