SURGE collectives

Adding metagenic qualities had been available before, but selecting an (illustrated) SURGE collective wasn’t until this release.

The illustrations are payed for by our Patreon supporters.

Custom Descriptions

If you want to get rid of the “Licensed content. You don’t have a license …” text, you can now do that by defining files that contain text descriptions for data in Commlink (e.g. spells, qualities …)

See an explanation in our Wiki

Caveat: The current placeholder text does not disclose the requested identifier. That is about to change with the next release.

Import characters via drag&drop

If somebody sends you the XML file of a character created with Commlink, you can now easily importing the file by just drag&drop the file onto Commlink
Caveat: Currently the character tile of the importet character doesn’t update correctly until the next start of the application.

Unrestricted generation

If you created the character outside Commlink and just want to enter all the data, you can now use the “Free generation” (available when switching to “House Rules”). You still need to walk through the wizard, but Commlink doesn’t check your actions for rule conformity.

Support “Strength” rules

Strength adding to the melee AR (Seattle edition) andhigh strength adding to damage (6WC) are rules that can now be configured for each character.

Critter Powers show up as qualities

With the 6WC some metasapients come with critter powers. While critter powers have their extra section in the user interface, they show up as qualities on the PDF
