[Rifts] Tweaking the Palladium-Rifts Character Template

1440087604

Edited 1440087658
Hello everyone, I'm a huge fan of the Palladium system and love the Rifts universe. I'm also an avid Computer Scientist. Thus I'm taken it upon myself to tweak the Palladium-Rifts character sheet and I'm looking for suggestions from anyone that uses the sheet or has ideas about how to improve it. I've already done alot work on it; essentially re-writing the sheet and I have a pull request on github open already. That being said, I'm still looking for input on how to further improve the sheet. Can see my changes  here on github . Check out the pictures below as well. Tab1: Tab2: Tab 3: Tab 4:
Would like to be able to add more Power Armor or Mecha to the sheet. Kind of like you can add the weapons with a add button.
IMHO the current Rifts sheet isn't really functional. The current sheet's full of all sorts of homebrew/wrong elements; and worse than that, swathes of the sheet is read-only (and wrong). Is there anything that I can do to hurry this patchset along? I'm starting a new game with a bunch of roll20 newbies (including myself), and this has been a very unpleasant surprise. Please let me know if I can help get a better Rifts character sheet live. Thanks, Richard

It'd mess up current Power Armor and Mech though. Although I could just add a repeatable below a static one. I'll play around with and see what I come up with.

Thanks, Richard I've got the sheet ready to be pulled in at the moment. Just waiting on someone to pull it into the main repo. In other words, it's out of my hands. If you've got more feedback about the old sheet or if you see my new sheet there and have a thought. Let me know please.
I don't see a field for SDC.  How can that be missing - I must be blind.  On paper it's right next to HP.

Not blind, it's not in those images. Someone else brought up it up on github though, so it's been added into the pull request already.
The edits have been pulled into the repository. Not seeing the sheet at all in the options for games though. Not sure if that is part of the update process or if some error occurred. Anyways, at least the sheet is in the repo.
It seems like there was an issue with my push that I didn't notice before I left for the weekend and Riley had to roll back my merge. The issue seems fixed and it should go live soon.
Thanks Ryan! Ok, looking at the sheet in the game. Looks like a few things are not working right. The tab names are not showing up. Also there are increment arrows on most of the input boxes. These are not horrible issues but it is annoying. Going to see if I can figure out what's going on and fix it.
