cepheus_engine_character_generator
This JavaScript character generator for the Cepheus Engine sci-fi roleplaying game follows the character creation rules found here available in PDF.
This is based on https://github.com/pgorman/travellercharactergenerator classic Traveller character generator, I copied the files into this unlinked project so that I dont accidentally break his work. I'm learning to use Gitub through trial and error, and no formal training so expect me to make a lot of mistakes.
Yes, characters can die during character creation!
How to use this:
- Download this in either your phone, tablet, or desktop
- On the cepheus character generator.
- Go to the green button of Code,
- choose Download zip,
- unzip
- open folder and look for Index.html
- open index.html in a browser of choice
- Make a Bookmark for easy access (or save to home screen on the device)
How to Test
- Check out the effect of Changes in https://justinaquinogitb.github.io/cechargen/index.html?history=verbose
- More importantly if you want to create the same project you can create a new repository, download and manually copy the files into that new repository (I did this because this allows me to instantly make changes without worrying about affecting pgorman's project)..
(Reload the page to generate another character.)
Log
- 231202 - got back into working on this. Last I remember I was supposed to make the mishap work. So there is a mishap branch. I need to make survival impossible in all the Services to properly test mishaps. Then when all the mishaps are working, we then proceed to hopefully triggering the Injury table.
2.The injury table. a table where the character can lose stats, next is the medical care and deciding how much medical debt a character will take on. So character spending 5,000cr will raise their stat back to starting level. - Prosethetic rules will need be clarified - per TL. Anyway for TL8 and up.
Origins
This is a branch of Pgorman's traverllercharactergenerator Thanks to a contribution from Frank Filz, a verbose mode adds behind-the-scenes character creation details.
