zombicide randomizer survivors

[Thor0298]

I made an executable randomizer. I would say its my pre-alpha.
It isn't 'prettied' up but it works.. I don't know if it is ok to post here so I will
wait for someone to respond if its ok. It is just and exe and a txt file. In the
txt file you list the survivors that you have. Then when you run it, you just put in
how many you want to play with and it puts out a list like this:

['Doug', 'Amy']

If people are interested in it, I will keep updating it until it looks better.

i guess it doesn't work in the current form unless you have python 2.5 installed. I will try another compiler

 

[Thor0298]

heres an updated one can someone try it out

unzip
survivors.exe is the program
survivors.txt has the survivors name
you enter in the 4 and it spits out the survivors name
there is no error handling if you enter letters

Yeah, works ok.

Would be better if it didn't leave a console window open.

 

[Thor0298]

Yeah, works ok.

Would be better if it didn't leave a console window open.

I will see if I can get the console window to close and also make the printout window looking better

Nice for a first draft!

It needs more fluff though Like using transparency from .png to compose an image with the selected survivors in a fashion like this;

You can do that, right?

Something I've been planning do to since my friends and I started to shuffle the stat-cards to randomly select our Survivors, was to print out pictures of each survivor's face and glue them to gaming counters. You know, the round coin-like ones. And with the coming stat-cards being double sided with the Survivor on one side, and their Zombivor on the other, this idea seems so very good to me now. Chuck them into a cup and randomly draw out the appropriate number.

That said, awesome work on this randomizer. What would the likelyhood be of making a smart-phone compatible version for when a PC or Laptop are an inconvenience to the gaming situation?
