Disambiguation of Ludography Cites (2019)
Thomas, we have finally found a need for further disambiguation in the ludo cites if I am not mistaken.
- Please check out Gimmick
- The edition parameter may need to be added since the name and version parameters are duplicates across the multiple versions of Secrets of the Ancients.

niven chain
I apologize for the late response, I just discovered this function. I came across the "build the tools" phrase in Fleet of Worlds and it just stuck. Later I realized it also applies to the process of going from First Settlement to having a shipyard.
Do we really need two sets of nearly identical TL charts?
Right now now we two TL charts - one set with the Traveler TL and a nearly identical set with the Traveler and GURPS TLs. Is this really necessary? What real purpose does it serve? --BruceGrubb (talk) 09:51, 22 February 2019 (EST)
- We really don't need both. The problem is there are five TL charts: The Classic Traveller one (which ends to TL 15), the MT one (which ends at TL 20+), the GURPS 3rd one, the GURPS 4th one, and the Traveller 5th (which ends at TL 33). And there are internal differences for each one. So there are two charts: The in-universe one that belongs in the article, and the meta-game version that translates the five different Traveller rule set descriptions. I would agree at this point the whole thing is a mess however. Tjoneslo (talk) 16:14, 22 February 2019 (EST)
- Is there a way to combine them as we originally had and eliminate the redundancy? Oh if you are wondering I have a very quick and dirty conversion chart over on the GURPS wiki. Yes everything doesn't line up with regards to the individual categories but you can give people too much information and IMHO Traveler 5e has that in spades.--BruceGrubb (talk) 18:17, 22 February 2019 (EST)
