The Mighty Buzzard:
After monkeying around with unnecessarily complicated perl data structures, I had a headdesk moment and decided to just stuff them all into a proper sql database. You'd think having done this kind of thing for a living for decades, it wouldn't have taken me this long to come to that conclusion but there we are.
I'll see about having it wiki-friendly by Friday. After that I may start work on creating a web front end for the database. Be nice to be able to list out all of the Chest Deep + Supernatural + Have Power X + NOT having Catch (iron) + NOT spell caster.
Sanctaphrax:
I have no idea what most of what you just said means, but it sounds good.
And real searchability would be fantastic.
Looking forward to Friday.
The Mighty Buzzard:
Mostly done. Still have to write a bit that calculates the stress boxes and dumps it all into a wiki entry but I can get that written while I drink my "morning" coffee. You have prefer having it output each entry into a separate file and stuffing all the files into a .zip or would you rather it be one big lump? Me, I'd go separate files. Unzip them all somewhere and delete them as you get them copied and pasted into the wiki so you don't have to deal with losing your place.
Oh, no guarantee they'll all come out perfect. There're so many it'd be much easier to do any proofreading to catch uncommon errors as they're entered onto the wiki. Think I have most of the bugs taken care of though.
Sanctaphrax:
They both sound fine.
If you think that separate files would be better, go with that.
I might actually get to use the unzipping program I downloaded last week.
The Mighty Buzzard:
Everything I wanted to do done except for adding Toughness boxes. Give these a check and if you're good with them I'll get to Toughness boxes Sunday. Saturday is for abusing my players.
