Re: GURPS Spaceships Design Spreadsheet
I hope my e-mail went through. My computer is slowly dying and having major trouble with the simplest of programs.

You might also try LibreOffice, which is an offshoot of OpenOffice and has been significantly updated. I still use OpenOffice largely because when I tried LibreOffice it's Excel imports tanked badly on the sheet. However, in my (minimal) testing, once OpenOffice had saved the sheets LibreOffice had no troubles opening it.

Re: GURPS Spaceships Design Spreadsheet
Yeah, I noticed that with v3.4 right off the bat myself. The only other suggestion I have is to check the Disable Core Macro checkbox at the top. This will disable the automatic show/hide of rows but could solve the issue. You'll just need to remember to click the Refresh Rows button every now and then (after installing Reconfigurable or Smaller SM Systems or after adding all systems to the ship or before printing or saving).

Re: GURPS Spaceships Design Spreadsheet
I notice there is a fuel tank for ablative plastic that only works for laser rockets. But I can't find the laser rocket itself under reaction engines.
Am I missing something obvious again?

Re: GURPS Spaceships Design Spreadsheet
No, there's a screw-up in the filtering for the Laser Rocket. It's supposed to be available if either SS7 or SS8 ship options have been selected; instead it is only available if both SS7 and SS8 ship options have been selected. If you want to make a ship with Laser Rockets right now you can temporarily select both SS7 and SS8, add the Laser Rocket, then uncheck SS8 so as not to activate some of the other campaign-specific changes.

Re: GURPS Spaceships Design Spreadsheet
That's easy enough. What changes to the program does checking SS8 do?
Edit: thanks

Re: GURPS Spaceships Design Spreadsheet
Limits the available TL's and availability of some ship systems, changes the cost of some fuels, increases the Complexity of computers, and probably a few other things I'm not remembering.

You know, this spreadsheet is getting really, really complex. (I'd love to unlock it and discover all its secrets. [Heh, heh, heh!]) Could you please write up a documentation file to include in the zip archive so we have some idea how to use all of its features? (It might help you with future updates too.)
