[QUOTE="towngen, post: 144398, member: 1528"] I would happily add someone's name to the credits of the program if they came up with an idea that I found useful. I'd probably also give them a free copy of the program if it was really useful. As for randomly generating the various stats and properties of a town, I already have quite a few ideas and methods in mind. I just like to hear other people's points of view and such. The statement about playing D&D, not SimBarony was great! That would be a great line to steal if I was going to do much marketing for this program. But I'm not planning to invest much in that since I don't expect that it'll sell very well no matter what I spent. The people in the market for my program will find it, and the people who aren't won't. Due to the rapid word of mouth among players of D&D, I doubt that a little extra exposure at significant expense would affect gross sales all that much and would probably affect gross profit in the wrong direction. But then I'm a programmer, not a sales/marketing expert, so what the hell do I know anyway? :) [/QUOTE]
