      This is on the list.

      In the mďsc resource, the user was able to bring up a pop-up list of combat rating settings, I like to see that also used for legal records as well.

      The problem here is that legal records go through a more complex system of multipliers and such that isn't clearly documented anywhere that I've seen.

      When clicking the 'edit' button for making descriptions in the mďsc resources, it brings up a list of dësc resources available for users to select which to use. I would like to see a 'new' button feature in that window list to make it easier to assign a new ID resource number on the spot.

      If you want to create a new desc resource, you just type a new number into the field and click Edit.

      I don't quite understand what you mean by complex. Do you mean to say you cannot simply do this?:

      From the Nova Bible:

      Quote

      Your legal status in a system is based on the crime tolerance of that system's
      government. (if the system is independent, it is based on the first government's
      (ID 128) crime tolerance) On this scale, enough "good" or "evil" points to equal
      the government's crime tolerance is given a value of 1:

      So does this mean I would have to divide out by crime tolerances to get them to match up properly, or what? Until I've got a definitive answer to what units it should be in, it stays as it is.

      Editors are modal dialogs; Command-W wouldn't be meaningful because you don't "close" modal dialogs, you dismiss them, and Command-Q wouldn't be meaningful because you have to dismiss the dialog before you can quit. Standard command keys are supported whenever they're meaningful; I believe Command-C, Command-X, and Command-V, for example, are full functional wherever there are text fields.
