The AlienAPI is about all that I have found to help me, but Ed is very helpful with specific questions. I've also dissected many of the other plugins out there to learn how they operate as well. I will try and look more at what you need and see i…
Thanks Ed,
With just a little more tweaking I was able to get exactly what I wanted out of it. That was a huge time saver for me. Thank you very much.

I'm looking to write a script that will replace the star names with
I'll look at the script you mentioned. That might point me in the right direction.
Thanks - Steve
I've re-downloaded and re-installed character sheet designer/viewer and I still can't get the character sheets to work on my copy of The Keep. This is not the end of the world, but it would be nice to have working eventually.
P.S. - I still love…
Doh! I've been in I.T. for over 16 years and I missed the simple solution. I just looked and indeed, Inspiration Pad is not in the registry. I didn't think to check that before. Must have been when I restored my system earlier this year. I'll b…
I'm having the same problem. I'm running Win XP and installed as desktop app. I've tried going to File/Import Character Sheet Definition and it shows me a list of the character sheets I have on my system. I select any of them and basically nothi…
Does that mean that Astrosynthesis will actually utilize more than one core in my processor? I've noticed that my processor is very under utilized while generating sectors and producing surface maps of all the bodies found. Yes, I like to abuse …
Hi Kojiro,
Looks like Ed and I were both right. By logging in as Administrator, you over came the rights issues that I was referring to and Ed was right that you need to give your computer time to complete tasks that are large. I've had my sy…
The problem is most likely being caused by Vista. Astrosynthesis likes to create files it its own directory but Vista tries to prevent any program from writing to the "programs" directory as a security measure. Granted, using security and Vista i…
I'm obviously not as handy with this script as I thought I was. Here is what I want it to do:
First: Generate a star name in the format: [ISS[x-coord],[y-coord],[x-coord]. The code I came up with was: ISS-[@{$BodyType}Default]{$PositionXPa…
Unfortunately, each of the worlds which were duplicated have unique IDs. I've just been manually going through system by system and deleting the duplicates. It has been a painful lesson to backup data BEFORE making and changes. Having been in the…
Being able to search and find planetary data would be a great tool. Would you set it up so that we could add Notes and GM Notes to the planetary records while in The Keep, or would we still have to go into Astrosynthesis to make such additions/edit…
I, for one, really appreciate moving to a forum style message board. I find it far more user friendly and easier on the eyes. It has a more professional look to it as well.
Although I am more of a writer than an RPG player, I really appreciate …
When you rework it to use a real database, could you make system and planetary names Key fields that cannot be duplicated? That would have really saved me some headaches.
Are you considering using a standard like mySQL or Access? I'm not sure w…
