Hi all,

I have written a web tool (html + css + javascript) which allows to save the state of the game, in order to backtrack the game to an earlier point, or to play parallel games.

What the tool is is first of all a computerized citadel leaflet, where one can choose characters, set production levels, pick buildings, etc. It can completly replace the paper citadel leaflets, except that one cannot draw the arms of your community.

The tool allows also to keep track of the cards each character is holding, and also of the quest item cards, global events, etc.

Finally, the tool has an infinite number of undo levels, which allows to backtrack the state of the game to an earlier point in time. You can even mark some points as being interesting (beginning of a scenario, just before a big fight), and you can then backtrack directly from interesting points to interesting points.

You can download the tool here. Just unzip and open the html file with a web browser. A user in the french forum set up the tool on a web server, so you can access it directly by pointing your browser at https://www.blackdiam.net/t7ci, without downloading anything (thanks Darky!). It works with firefox on the desktop and with chrome on the desktop and on android. Unfortunately, it does not seem to work with safari, and some features are missing with firefox on android.

The program stores all of its data in the "local storage" area of the browser, so as long as the browser works correctly and you don't change it, there is no need to save anything. But you can also save the data to a text file, and load it back.

Please enjoy and tell me what you think!
