Creature list.
#4
Thanks for your input Steve, procedural certainly makes things a lot harder! Marvin sent me a ginourmous list of all the different little pieces used by the creature generator showing that there are millions of possible outcomes.. eek! And yes Bitchin was one of them haha! Good news is Sebastian who's doing the awesome Starflight Reverse Engineering Project on Github has successfully extracted the creature creator code though which is very cool!

and

Now, that I have finished the sensor reading I can try to list all creatures and stats for each planet.


Also I was chatting with Marvin and he sent me these pictures showing how no matter what sort of crazy creature is generated they all still come under a locked set number of creature groups each with their own little picture. So perhaps these better match with the SF2 manual pictures giving Marv a decent source to create a limited number of simply low poly creature models and then their stats and descriptions can still be proceduraly generated like in the original game.
