Preventing Duplicate System Names

Howdy all,

I recently purchased Astro for use with a campaign I'm working on and found out about Inspiration Pad Pro and its use in name generation. I have a list of 830 or so names I wish to use when generating systems. I created an .ipt with a table for the names, which it works fine, except that when I generate a sector (with 830 or less systems), there are duplicate names. I looked into IPP's decklist function, which I figured would grab a name from the list and then remove it, but this does not seem to be the case. Any help in destroying this dissatisfying duplication of names would be greatly appreciated.

  • No, I dont think there's a way to do that with an inspiration pad generator. It was a good thought, but each name is a separate 'rep' for the generator (since astro needs to pass in different coordinates to the generator for each body), so all the deck picks reset between names.
