Subject: System Creation Program?
Message-ID: <199512302250.QAA01080@mailhub.amaranth.com>


I'm preparing to run a TNE based game in an alternate universe
and I'm going to need to generate a large number of star systems.
The "hand" method will take far longer than I can afford.

So I wondering...is there any software available that will create
Traveller-isk star systems in the UWP format?  

I'm looking for something that will generate new systems, not
massage the ones that have already been created.  I'd like the
program to, hopefully, allow some sort of configuration of
the factors going into the system's creation, for example allow
you to lower/raise average tech levels.  I've found some that
create systems in a graphical, but non-UWP format.  What I want
are text listings like from the old Scout book that I can print
out, edit, email to players, etc.  Graphics would be a bonus, but
would be frosting on the cake. <g>

It will have to run under OS/2.  Of course, that means it can be
a DOS or Windows 3.x program as well. <g>

Thanks in advance,
