Summary

This release featues content from the matrix rulebook “Hack & Slash”, finally allowing you to play AI characters. To better support that we made some changes to the exported standard PDF as well.

But this release has been getting more tests from our Patreons, which helped getting a lot of bugs fixed. And while we still haven’t fixed all of them, we think that the most critical issues have been adressed and feel that this can be our official 1.0.x release, suitable to get more people to use it.

Highlights

Hack & Slash (DE “Auswurfschock”)

A lot of new data:

  • New gear

  • Complex Forms

  • Paragons

  • Echoes

  • Technomancer Streams

  • AI as a playable character option

    • Codemods

    • Datastructures

    • Neuromorphism

Not included: Custom cyberdeck building - this is a feature for later releases

Matrix pages and other PDF changes

We are redesigning the PDF export one step after another. You might notice a change on the matrix page, dropping the edge actions, adding matrix combat data and dats structures.

We also moved attribute only tests from the attribute section to the skill section, which we consider more intuitive.

Foci and Datastructures in library

The library page now allows browsing all kinds of foci and datastructures.

We have the intention that Commlink might serve as a kind of master index for all Shadowrun 6 references.

Better support custom descriptions

With the 0.13.x release we started supporting custom descriptions. A small building block that was missing was to learn about the keys you need to store your description texts with.

If a description is missing, Commlink now shows a text field

 

Custom Rule “More Knowledge”

There is an optional rule for german players, that gives you LOG+INT free knowledge skills on character generation, which is now supported

 

Bugfixes

A total of 38 bug fixes have made it into this release, lots of which addressed issues that made aspects of the application unusable. Others addressed issues that prevented wrong Karma and Nuyen calculation. And some fixed minor UI misbehaviour.
