This is the tidier version of the code used in the Spell Writing Guide which aims to provide a simple method by which we can draw spells in D&D 5e. The system is general to any system and easy to modify, I will explain this later.
You can clone the repo for use simply by typing:
git clone https://github.com/GorillaOfDestiny/SpellWritingGuide
When initially running the code a folder called "Uniques" with files such as "11.npy" being created within. These contain the rotationally unique binary numbers the method relies on. They will only be created when such a file does not already exist in a directory called "Uniques".
Python vesion used in development: Python 3.10.4
The required python modules are:
- numpy
- matplotlib
- argparse
- math
- os
- tqdm
to run you type the command: py writer.py
for information about optional commands type: py writer.py --help
standard input for a spell is py writer.py -level <level> -range <range> -area <area> -dtype <dtype> -school <school> with replaced by relevant lowercase strings. Defaults to make "Fireball".
To see the available inputs (and their format) type: py writer.py --arg_help -<arg>...
input options are defined by the .txt files in "Attributes/" so --arg_help simply prints the values in this file.
You can add your own options to the inputs by adding them in a new line in the relevant .txt files in "Attributes/"
