However, browsing this forum I noticed this post about a combat simulator
viewtopic.php?f=7&t=1562

My question is, does it make sense for you that I try to keep expanding the program beyond its current features when these other tools are appearing?

Maybe Elfcrusher's not really a Combat Helper, but this one is:

Is there any chance such programs could be connected?

As for Journeys, Elfcrusher has also another program:

For your own sake and sanity , I don't think you should worry doing new apps when there are already good ones.

I think I will follow your advice and focus on what makes my tool useful, that is, creating and saving characters online. As well as exporting them to forum code.

Instead, in the next version there will be a simple REST API so that other tools can interact with mine and grab characters from the server for their own purposes. It's a cleverer division of work.

That last bit sounds really useful.

One thing one of my players noticed was that changed a Speciality/Trait wasn't possible after creating a character. Is that something we're doing wrong or is it something that is not possible with the current code.

Thanks for the hard work on making this app and supporting it for TOR gamers.

The only taits that are allowed to change are distinctive traits, as the rules allow during the Fellowship Phase. However, it is not possible to change a Specialty or a Cultural Blessing, neither remove a Degeneration (only add another).

I think this rule will change with the new edition of the game, if I'm not mistaken, that allows to change also Specialties. In that case, I will loose the restrictions in the character sheet.
Or maybe I just should not try to enforce the rules and give free chance to change everything in the sheet? I fear that removing that rule could make the character "progression" more confusing.

The revised rules and the Clarifications document do allow for both Traits and Specialities to be changed now so it would be nice if the app could allow this

Thanks for your amazingly fast response to my question.

Agreed with Hermes...lighting fast customer service at the azrapse office!

The shadow bane virtue of the Mirkwwood elf needs to be updated with the changes from the revised edition.

Oh, thanks for the warning. I will update it this evening.
I really apologize for not keeping this totally up to date, but real life has kept me away from the game.

Sad to hear, but hopfelully you find the time to include the new heroic backgrounds in your very helpful generator sometimes.
