World Builders help

Isn't the '...on a roll of 12, DM+Law Level' ?

Oh, so it's just 2D+Law Level, no other DMs?

Was a bit unclear to me since it's still under the System of Justice section, so I thought it might be another roll (with DM+ for Law Level) on the table above it.

Correct

I can see why it was a bit unclear. Sorry about that.

Apologies if this has already been covered, but wondered if there were any semi-automated tools to generate the superb detail of the World Builders, without having to create your own working sheet?

Something that takes input parameters, and outputs results to a standard format that can then be edited and manipulated for hand outs or a VTT journal?

I'm not a coder, so it is a bit beyond me.

Not sure if this is what you're looking for, but if you can copy/paste a table into Excel, this might do the trick for you:

Utilitarian Star System Generator

I wrote a straightforward no-frills application that implements most of the steps and procedures from the wonderful *World Builder's Handbook* up to Class III Survey status, with a bit of IV-P. Download the star_gen.html file (right-click and Save As), then open the file in any browser and...

Yeah, I messed around with it and didn't come up with anything better. The first example you you mention is based on the problem with circumbinaries , and unless at least one star is bright, any Tatooine is going to be frozen.

Speaking of circumbinaries, when working out the innermost orbit slot, the equation uses MAO, If a primary has a companion, any orbits below .5 + ECC, are unavailable. Should I still be using MAO in the calculation, or the first allowable slot AFTER the companion's effect is added?

It should be what's allowable after the companion's orbit is taken into account.
