Tabletop Admiral updates and feedback

By werdnaegni, in Star Wars: Imperial Assault

I can't find the old thread, but I added Tress, Zeb, and Spinning Kick to Tabletop Admiral
The other cards aren't all that readable so I think I'll hold off on those.

I'm glad to see they're going to support the game! Since that's the case, I might as well support this builder. I've admittedly been focused on the Legion builder since that's pretty popular right now, but I've mostly wrapped it up. Feel free to check out that builder and let me know if there's anything from that that you'd like to see on the IA builder, or anything else in general. I'll get back to work on this soon if there are some wishlist items you all have.

If you appreciate the builder and the work that goes into keeping it up with announcements, new features, etc., I'd really appreciate if you'd consider throwing me $1 or so per month on my Patreon or a one-time buy-me-a-beer $5 or so at my Paypal Tip Jar . Thanks!

Old post HERE in case you need it :)

When selecting command cards, "shared experience" is in the list twice.

173 Shared Experience
190 Take Position
199 Looking For A Fight
Are duplicates. Also there is card 0 which is "None".
I realised that using more than 15 deployment cards the parser gets broken because numbers in the URL over the 30th overflow into command cards.
It would be better and more robust a format like :
.../imperialassault?deployment=XX...XX&command=XX...XX
I also suggest to add something like:
&faction=rebel
To make these URLs portable.
I created a library for converting your URLs into Army objects in Startactics and vice versa. I'm trying to get this integrated into the App. People would be able to import your URL into Startactics or use your site as a web view. I wish your way to encode URLs would become a standard in Imperial Assault.
I suggest you to look at this great piece of work:
He has numerical IDs and he's going to include iaspecs. If you switch to those numerical IDs and the URL format that I suggested above, you would open your website to any other app in the IA environment.
We should seriously stop sharing crappy files and use URLs from your website and QR codes containing your website URLs to share lists on chat and social media or at public events. Imagine people taking pics of a QR code and get immediately redirected to your website for looking at the list, or importing that URL into their favourite list builder app!

Yeah I really wish I hadn't made the link codes the way that they are. They're much better for legion. This was my first list builder so I hadn't applied everything I learned. Maybe I can change it though, I just didn't want to break anybody's lists.

Same with those doubled cards, I didn't want to break lists, but maybe I'll just pull off that band aid and say sorry, hah.

Maybe keep an old version online for a while so people can reference, while the main page goes to the fixed version?

Yeah I'm thinking I just keep both running, and it'll first check for the new way, and if that's not there, it'll go the old way

Makes sense. Can't you support old format and new one at the same time?

Can we get the rest of the TOL content? :) Pretty please.

Is there an update on if the new content is going to be uploaded???

He's holding out until we all donate to his patreon! Kidding. Love this site. It's killing me not having it updated. Take my money.

Just out of curiosity, what have people noticed that's missing? (Might help werdnaegni out, too...)

Seems to me to be the Deployment Cards: Thrawn, Hondo, Heavy Fire, and Lie in Ambush; and I think that might be it, though I feel sure there must be some newer Command Cards too?

A "forgotten password" option would be very useful

Sorry, I still exist. I just added what was spoiled on FB for Hondo.

I'll have to hunt down the TOL stuff that FFG didn't spoil. I don't own or buy the game, so I can't scan it myself, but I'm guessing it's out there somewhere. Feel free to point me in the right direction.

I'd like to, but in short I screwed up in making the site and it would be a pain to redo. One day.

In the meantime, if you PM or email your user name and what you'd like your new password to be, I can change it.

You can find all skirmish spoils in this thread. It'd be pretty much appriciated to have everything updated :P

From that list, it seemed I was missing Marked Territory, Pack Alpha, and Spectre Cell.

Those are added now. Let me know if you know of anything else I'm missing. Sorry again for the delay. Been a bit busy with work!

Looks like Thrawn and Hondo are still missing.

I didn't see Thrawn in the linked post above. Hondo is there though, you just may have to update your collection.
Is thrawn from TOL?

Ah I see.

No worries, I managed to track it down eventually (I moved to a new computer at work but some of my passwords didn't copy over). Overall, great work and a brilliant resource, so many thanks for your hard work!

I can only find the campaign version. Any idea where I can find the skirmish version, or anybody out there want to scan/take a picture for me?

Edit: Nevermind. I found the FB post with it.

No you.

Seems some of the CCs are still missing? Escalating Hostility for example.
