Hello All:
Well, Having gotten Anigen out of my hair, I return to a project of my own
that I think is kinda a neat program. I'm designing a custom combat armor
generator along the same line as anigen (interface-wise) using the generation
rules supplied by Mr. Wilson. They are modified to allow Weight and Volume
calculations now. I am also going to be including options for installed
equipment in the armor (Built in computers, communicators, IR/LI goggles, Data
Display/Recorder Headpiece, etc...) and have run into a prob. I'd like to bring
Power rules into the whole thing, but am lacking power consumption figures for
the various pieces of equipment. Further, with Battle Dress, how much power
does Battle Dress require and for how long? What Strength bonuses does Battle
Dress yield? This would all be nice to know.
Anyhow, I know this sounds like a Mech Builder, but it's not that detailed.
I'm just trying to allow the design of combat armor with add-ons.
If anyone has power consumption figures on some common equiment or a method
by which I can derive said figures (legally from the rules), please let me
know. I may end up posting this program, if Loren and GDW give it the O.K.
Thanks a bunch!
Anthony
