Web random tables generation tool

[steinkel]

Hi Guys!

I'm working on a table generation tool (web based) and wanted share it with you, could be a good thing to do inside maptool for generating names, or quick NPC's etc. OF COURSE we have Tablesmith already done, but it's getting old and I wanted something quick to have in my mobile phone...

Let me know what you think!

Hi, thanx for sharing, but all tables render an internal error

It seems to be fixed now.

Nice and functional design, I'm not so impressed by the content, but that will probably grow.

You need to add a Mutually exclusive flag:

Lowly
Contrarian
Verbose
Quiet
Materialistic

Verbose and Quiet?

TraitID, Trait Name, ExcludeID1, ExcludeID2, ExcludeID3: probably the simplest flat file data base structure.

The last variables can be iterated with an array so that you don't need fixed columns.

eg count deliminator from Left side
If DeliminatorCount = 2 then (We reached the end of TraitName and the rest are flags.
Read the rest as mutually Exlusive into an ExclusiveArray()

Loop through array and redefine Array to ensure your random selection doesn't match anything in the array.

Verbose and Quiet = Someone who doesn't talk much but when you get them started, oh boy. Or someone who says a lot but speaks softly.
