The SWN Toolbox is a collection ofRuby scriptsdesigned to speed up random generation of various Stars Without Number things.It is aimed primarily at Game Masters.
The scripts are written in Ruby; you'll need an installation of Ruby on yoursystem to run them. A Windows Ruby installer is available athttp://www.rubyinstaller.org.
The SWN Toolbox ishosted on GitHub.
No installation is required; simply extract the file into a folder of yourchoice. The .rb files can be run directly from the command-line, e.g.:
- ruby alien.rb
If you're running in a Windows environment, you most likely don't haveRuby installed. You can download Ruby for free fromhttp://www.rubyinstaller.org.
In this release, each script is designed to be run directly from thecommand-line.
Every script in the collection supports a single command-line argument:
- a number, which specifies the amount of items to generate.
For example: "ruby alien.rb 3" will generate 3 alien races.
The scripts use the tables in the subdirectory, which are simpleYAML files.
You can edit them to add more entries to be randomly-selected by the scripts.
