    Zorgon

    With GPT-5 getting close to reveal - I expect some of the word salad was fallout from some of the backend upgrades to the hardware and infrastructure. And, I don't talk about Zorgon much personally because I tend to do all my experimentation using my own OpenAI account. For my personal RPG...

    Generators from CSV Quick-and-Dirty How-To

    A question about how to use Comma-Seperated Values (CSV) files to create generators came up on the RPT Discord (you are on the Discord right?) I had need of a quick generator so I took some nodes while building it to share with you. First, review the change log notes about CSV for generators...

    Zorgon word salad?

    Fundamentally, all Zorgon knows is the absence or presence of voltage. Combining voltage patterns on inputs with combinational logic based on transistor physics which the input voltage patterns into different output voltage patterns. That is what Zorgon "knows" and how it "thinks". What...

    Zorgon word salad?

    Mass Combat Questions

    I recently had to wrestle with this in the design of my personal TTRPG ruleset. There are a couple of approaches going back to things like BattleSystem for AD&D. But my fun isn't in the top-down map of all the squads and such with the entire group of players driving one of the many units. That...

    Found a great Monster stat block creator that then creates the Json or Markdown code for CL.

    Can you use an image snapshot tool and paste the image of the statblock in?

    Dear John and Jochen,

    Justin, we've all been there at least once - and Johnn and Jochen more than once even with CL. Unfortunate as it is, you also helped to make CL even better by finding a case/condition that wasn't optimum and triggering a fix. Thanks for being one of the great folks on the internet who can put...

    How does Zorgon work?

    The Generators in CL primarily refer to embedding random-rolling dice tables into CL. There is a sister site called Generator UI which is the interface to put in tables or lists of data and the "rules" for how to random-roll results from them - including embedding rolls on other tables within...

    Feature Requests

    What I have been doing is keeping a seperate JSON file to import to any new campaign using the same system. But I've been using that mostly for mechanics and some forms/sheets/templates. Thinking about it - I like your idea because then you could have multiple parties in the same setting and...

    Tip: Pasting text from OneNote creates an image in CL instead of text

    If you right click there is usually an icon for "paste as text" as well - but - I am thinking this is a Windows OS problem and not so much a web/CL problem because Windows picks the mode and interface its going to call for the paste. Maybe there's a default somewhere deep in the guts of the...

    I hate spell slots.

    I've put up a note about this review/request on the RoleplayingTips Discord in the "Get Campaign Help / #fantasy" channel https://discord.com/channels/274990379017830401/1046090029392470047/1179522135035744397

    batch changing tag types

    From within the CL interface directly there is not a way I know of. When I need to go batch crazy with my campaigns, I export them as a JSON, edit the heck out of the JSON, and re-import. WARNING: I DON"T RECOMMEND THIS FOR SANE CL USERS As a UNIX/Linux user with python ... I can go pretty...

    Indeed it does - I was glad to see it pop up in my view too - initially it was available but my browser and security and general paranoid settings were blocking it - but I've got it sorted out now. Extremely helpful.

    Corporate Warfare?

    (Posted to the ALIEN RPG forum: https://forum.frialigan.se/viewtopic.php?t=11894 ) In the feedback to Building Better Worlds, it was noted that Gemini Exoplanet was listed as an affiliate of Seegson and elsewhere listed as working with Weyland-Yutani which may have been a mistake in the...

    Start your calendar with Empire Year Zero being the furthest back - and then all alter entries are higher numbers. EY0 Empire's Formation EY1500 Battle of Nogrod (NY0) EY1651 Civil War (NY151) EY1655 War of Scarlet (NY155)

    Map, Monster, Chest: The Golden Trio of Adventure Design

    Indeed, OODA is basically something to consider between each player's turns. The short version might even be "having fun?" "having fun?" "having fun?"

    Map, Monster, Chest: The Golden Trio of Adventure Design

    If a GM ever wanted a tattoo about GMing ... "Map Monster Chest" could be one. Since first running into those three words in that order here, they occur to me constantly now looking at encounters, 5 room dungeons, NPCs and more. What's the Map? What's the Monster? What's the Chest? Chant it like...
