Characters often have "points of something" that isn't FP or HP. From Monster Hunters Mana Reserve to Dungeon Fantasy's Energy Reserve, Power Item, item with power reserves,... to what happened in my Supers game, where a big bad had 3 energy reserves, a familiar with shared FP and DR with absorption, or in my non-DF game, where a character ended up with 20 powerstones with capacities that ranged from 1 to 30, and a host of improved zombies, each with a 3 point ER that they could share with the caster.

So basically, what I'm asking for, is a button that adds a new "reservoir" of points. You get a dialog asking for a name, a base value, a current value, and a checkbox indicating if it can go negative. Once you accept, then it's added bellow the normal HP and FP trackers.

More ideas:

• Loadout manager: Keeps track of a character's possessions, adding weight and cost, and allows you to create loadouts. Once you have a loadout, you can load it, input your ST, and you get your encumbrance level.
• ST to damage calculator: You input the ST, you get your thrust/swing damage, and your basic lift.

I considered this one but assumed that it might be too close to reproducing the actual table, which is not legal, correct?

GCA and GCS do it. GCA is officially sanctioned, but GCS is not.

EDIT: BTW, if you ever do it, I would love to have a "house rule" (sanctioned by Kromm), to have the progression of ST damage continue instead of slowing down (so 8 ST is always +2d sw/+1d thr)

new suggestion: this, with possibly adding a way to automate the rolls, and probably even the fast charm creation rules.

I think what I will tackle next is importing a GCS file.

Also thanks again everyone for the support! The app is currently at 49 downloads and 8 five star reviews with downloads mainly in America, England, and Spain!

[Kuroshima]

Well, I'm responsible for at least two Spanish downloads (more if it counts updates and failed downloads), as I instaled it on my phone and tablet ;)

This feature will be much appreciated, and probably convince me that it belongs on my phone.

GCS exports a very clean XML so this shouldn't be too crazy.

I will start with a simple interface to view your character, and in later releases develop the ability to edit the sheet on your droid and export the xml back to GCS.

I know. It's the cleanliness of the format that made me suggest that you try to work with it.
