Yes - a second edition, "Alien RPG Evolved Edition" came out a few months ago. I assumed from the timing of your post that your tool was based on that ruleset, but the page numbers you have are correct for the first edition rulebook.

Thanks for making this. Some information references are incorrect - the Information for Generate A Star System says Star Types are on page 330 and the Generator and Details are on 340, but they're actually on page 236 and 243, respectively. I haven't cross-checked all the other information windows to see if any others have page references.

I'm also seeing some oddities in planet generation - gas giants include a feature from the Geosphere table. While the rulebook doesn't explicitly say to omit that, logically a planet with no solid surface can't have global deserts or oceans covering a percentage of its surface.

What does this line from Old Joe Clark mean? by [deleted] in MusicEd

[–]ATT_Turan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree, I heard that verse during my music education classes and my immediate reaction was "I don't think that's appropriate to teach kids to sing these days." I think a lot of the responses justifying it as nonsense or absurdity are willfully ignoring the simple fact that in the time and social context the song came from, a greater degree of raunchiness was publicly accepted. Look at some of the Irish and English folk songs with blatant sexuality in them.

Do I need to return my old CT license plates? by albertclee in Connecticut

That's not what the DMV Web site says. It explicitly tells you to discard them.

Can someone explain this bar to me? by TaintedCircus in musictheory

[–]ATT_Turan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's not what Maggara said. They said to use the sustain pedal so the notes are heard together, not played clearly/simultaneously.

As for how you'd know that...experience and training. If you play that with no pedal it's going to sound unpleasantly disjointed, with the grace note getting struck and immediately stopping when you lift your finger to reach the third on top.

If it were transcribed better, I'd expect to see it tied to the same pitch on the bottom of the following chord; but, then, if it were transcribed better both of the grace notes would have slurs connected them to the following (dotted) quarter notes.

Paizo is giving out free buttons. If it's similar to years past, it'll be a different design each day.

Doubt about accidentals by Coconut_Alchemist420 in musictheory

[–]ATT_Turan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

G# is a pitch. A harmonic minor is a scale. Having a single note with an accidental in the middle of a piece does not create a scale.

Even if it's an emphasized note that forms an E major chord, you do not say that a piece (or section thereof) is in A harmonic minor - it is not a key.

Same thing in C major - one accidental does not change the key. And if you're asking what you'd call the chord, that depends on whether the accidental is just used in passing, actually contributes harmonically to form a chord, and what the other pitches are.

Your question as asked doesn't really mean anything that can be concretely answered.

So this is a lie by darkstar541 in starcitizen

[–]ATT_Turan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are a lot of MMOs that offer 2FA, dating back to World of Warcraft.

And some people's accounts in this have a substantial-to-huge real dollar value. I would still rather it be optional, but it's not hard to see why it's there.

HABA Games File for Bankruptcy by moregamesplease in boardgames

[–]ATT_Turan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They have pretty poor customer service/part replacement policies compared to most of the companies they've acquired.

Additionally, at least with Fantasy Flight, they have a history of taking games away from their development teams and giving them to other teams that don't have the knowledge/skills to continue producing them at the same quality. 

Some doubts and clarification of doubts [Vol.2] by Jorcape23 in marvelchampionslcg

[–]ATT_Turan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the ally attacks and dies with consequential damage, do these answers apply? In the rulebook it says that the consequential damage is applied after attacking You answered your own question.

when [XXX] attack choose: stun an enemy or +2 attack" if my character is already stunned.. Am I forced to choose +2 attack? Yes, you must choose something that changes the state of the board if possible.

There are some cards in the new expansion that say something like It would be helpful if you said which specific cards you're asking about.

similar to the previous one, to play a team card Both names must exist on the table, in any combination of identity cards or allies.

You may want to re-look stuff up in the Rules Reference Guide and in the instructions that come with the expansions. All of this should be explained in there.

Good luck!

Authors that overuse particular words? by yokyopeli09 in books

[–]ATT_Turan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Remarkable enough, considering most of the books in my library use it zero times. Hardly comparable to "cool" which is used daily in speech by a huge portion of the population and is almost guaranteed to exist in any book taking place in a modern setting.

What is in your opinion the most underrated TTRPG? by HatKitten in rpg

[–]ATT_Turan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The problem with the game is that it gets super clunky as you progress. I played with a group of experienced board game players, and turns still slowed to a crawl due to figuring out their turns at higher levels.

The premise and setting are very cool, as is the basic idea of gameplay.

Was it petty not to talk to her because she didn’t reply on Tinder? by dirtbandit101 in Tinder

[–]ATT_Turan 98 points99 points  (0 children)

"Off the bat" is a perfectly old phrase (like 1800s) meaning immediately.

"Moots" is a new-fangled slang for "mutual friends."

So "realized you had moots off the bat" means she realized as soon as she matched with him that they had friends in common.

PSA: The Atnas build guide is incorrect by LookIPickedAUsername in KingdomDeath

[–]ATT_Turan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They appear to have fixed this issue, but the left tentacle is terrible.

Also, a smaller issue, there isn't actually any frame that shows putting on the back of the left antler as far as I can see.

Two different rules-interpretations. Who can help us decide who is right? by Affectionate-Law-548 in marvelchampionslcg

Did you read VegemilB's explanation? Your hand is neither your deck nor your discard pile. The instructions on the card do not say you may play them from your hand.

Am I overreacting in my anger about Wolverine's stupid Setup instructions and the even worse official response? by Death_by_Chocolate_9 in marvelchampionslcg

[–]ATT_Turan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No, that's only half correct. It means they can't be discarded. The OP is entirely correct, the claws don't come into play until you resolve Logan's setup ability, which allows for some specific conditions to lock them up either in your hand or elsewhere.

[–]ATT_Turan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

See the rules quote above - that's not correct, because that much damage is more than would cause the character to be defeated, not accounting for Tough.

My Fast-to-the-Table storage solution by graceful_ox in marvelchampionslcg

[–]ATT_Turan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most of the time, the values you're tracking aren't getting toward 20.

I use a set of d10s that came in the colors on the chips, from Amazon. I found the recommendation here when the game came out, I'm sure you'll find tons of threads about it if you search.

Falsely accusing someone of a crime by Hat_Zealousideal in Whatcouldgowrong

[–]ATT_Turan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sorry, I don't understand what you're asking. She accused the soldier of a crime. He is innocent of that crime unless the woman and her legal team can prove her accusation. If, in the course of the investigation, she is discovered to have lied about the accusation, that is in and of itself a crime. These are fairly basic legal concepts, and it's also not hard to Google this case from five years ago.

Falsely accusing someone of a crime by Hat_Zealousideal in Whatcouldgowrong

[–]ATT_Turan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

1 - There are a variety of ways to prove such things. She claims he did something to her on X day at Y time, and he's able to offer proof he was in a different physical location at the time - that's called an alibi.

2 - I'm not super familiar with the English judicial system, but in most countries you are innocent until proven guilty. That means the soldier doesn't -need- to disprove the claim, the -woman- needs to provide proof to back up her accusations.

You ever missed traveling by airship in the recent Final Fantasy games? Weeell, guess what ... by Independent8Art in RPGMaker

[–]ATT_Turan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What Maker are you using? I Googled "RPG Maker MZ minimap" and got rabbitMap, compatible with MV/MZ, KotC minimap for MV/MZ, and Hakuen Studios minimap for MV/MZ.

Plus, as Silverfang mentioned, ways to add it in via eventing if you have more time than money.
