Neighborhood Generator from p. 92 MLJBB.
Just posting here and on my DCRS project thread to (re)generate interest in the DCRS. My overhaul of the system, starting in mid-August, has been taking me much longer than I'd hope (silly full-time job getting in the way of my spare time) so I thought I'd take a few evenings off to finish off a few generators and calculators that I didn't get around to the first time.
For those of you who don't know the DCRS, it's a large PHP/MySQL based project online to track information about your shadowrun games. There's a number of enhancements for DCSRS v3.0 (which is what I'm working on right now) so stay tuned, but feel free to check out the site @ dcrs.dashifen.com to learn more.
What I would like, however, is if somone could send me (either by PM or post below) the average response times from New Seattle (p. 108-111 according to MLJBB) so that I can include that information on the site. Seems like something that would help a lot of people out. Not looking for all four pages from New Seattle, just the average response times would be nice.
When I get around to updating the generator, I'll include the names of some of the locations as well as page numbers from the Where's It At (p. 70-92 MLJBB) section where applicable.

sweet, thanks k-10. Also: Shadowruns on the fly from page 115 of MLJBB.
Dude, those two sites are so money...
I'm gonna have to bookmark those until I can get a copy of that book. Thanks for the links.
It would be nice to be able to choose the security of the neighborhood, but in any case, nice work 
Very handy

Gee --- why didn't I think of that
. I'll put that together tonight.
Any chance of getting those as a seperate program to go on a laptop?

Unless you have or want to install PHP on your computer then not really. I could send you the code if you want to code it into a more client friendly language (C++ comes to mind) but otherwise it's specifically a web-based technology, sorry. On the other hand, you could generate 20 or so different neighborhoods/runs and copy/paste them into a word document, print it and now you don't need the programs anymore.
Edit: grammar

... Doesn't everyone have a PHP-enabled Web server with an SQL backend running on their laptop?
Hey Dashifen, that runs-on-the-fly generator is great! (I wrote that part of the book, and that's such a cool way to use it. I'll definitely bookmark that page. )
Hey, could you do a random contact-quirk generator too?

I could, but that didn't really have any rolls involved in it, did it? You just looked at the list and picked on. The generators that I've been picking out of the mix are those that requre much dice rolling (like the shadowrun on the fly section) so that people can fire up my site in game and get the answers in a moment. But, that being said, I'll look at the contact quirks and see if I can come up with something.

This is done -- you can now choose a zone rating or simply let the computer choose for you.
Thanks for the compliments and the hits

You just gave me an idea, actually...if nobody beats me to it, I think I'll take the quirks section and flesh it out into a full-blown contact generator with metatype, gender, etc. If I post that, maybe it'll lend itself better to conversion to one of your automatic generators, yes? Thanks!
Sure --- you give me some kind of roll 1d6 against this table etc. rules and I can dice it up with PHP into a web page The generators that are like that are dirt simple to push out. It's the Ally Spirits, Decks, Guns, sort of things that require all those silly users to input stuff that become a problem for programming
