Intro

There is every time a lot of which need to be done. As you will see there are a lot of tasks which do not need Java skills.

Open Issues

Documentation

The ECE should be fully documented within this wiki.

Example Characters

The example characters of the players guide should be re-created within the ECE. This has two benefits. The first one is to see if the ECE works correctly. The second one is to have those characters to be used by people who do not want to build their own ones.

mixed icons

The icons used are a collection from different sources and may not look uniform. Maybe some icons should be replaced by icons to create a uniform look.

A search in the internet shows that there are libraries that contain a lot of (free) icons. Hopefully we can find our needed icons.

itemstore have to be filled by items of the sourcebooks

The directory /config/itemstore should contain all items defined in any ED3-sourcebook, split into files per sourcebook. A plenty of work is already done. But there are still items missing. Just take a look into the folder and fill in the missing.

new Character Sheet

There is no perfect character sheet. Some need it compact some have advances character and need more space. Human character need more space for versatility talents. Spell caster need more space for spells. High circle character need more space talents and skills. Rich characters need more space for items and thread items. Non-spell caster do not want to have a spell list at all. Fighters need more space for armor and weapon. Low circle character want almost everything on one sheet. ETC.

So there is always a need for yet another PDF character sheet.

optimised html export

The file earthdawncharacter.xsl is used to render an html view of a character XML file. This kind of view is the most flexible presentation of an character. But it is also the biggest challenge to get a handsome character sheet. There is still a lot of improvement necessary.

new Optinal Rules

insert Optional Rules Taildancer

The Taildancer choose one of the three t’skrang schools of tail combat when initiated into their Discipline.

(NG p. 192)

By the school the choose the get different bonus.

insert Optional Rules Traveled Scolar

... Adepts of this Discipline can purchase Knowledge skills for the same Legend Point cost as for Novice talents. ... NG p.197

updated and new template characters

Within the books exists template characters, which might be re-created with the current ECE version. Some already exists in the example folder and need to be updated and checked. Some needs to be created from scratch.

male+female portrait fore each race

• try to find an image (male and female) for every race as default picture in format 200x200 or 300x300.
• get the permission to use the pics.
• insert a credit for every designer in the about file

Creatures Tab

A new Tab in which the Creatures of the Character can be managed.

The Animal of the Beastmaster, the Elementals of the Elemantalist, the Mount oft the Cavalaryman (or every other Character), the Spirits of the Nethermancer or every other animal a Character takes with him during his travel.
