I just wanted to give a quick shout out to some creative tools developed for use with the Starship Geomorph image files.
The good folks at Role Generator have created a Random Starship Generator, which takes user input and creates either a randomly generated starship deck plan or presents a random, pre-generated ship plan. The image base uses those created from Starship Geomorphs 2.0 and various small craft. It is very simple to use and can create a lot of ships very quickly. The Random Starship Generator can be found by clicking [HERE].

Iván Sanchez Ortega, who designed the Peapod Class Mobile Refinery as part of the Adventure Class Starship Geomorphs community design project, has recently released Geomorph Shipyard, a simple to use tool for combining geomorph into your own unique designs. The image base uses files created from Adventure Class Starship Geomorphs. The software is simple and intuitive to use, keeps a running tally of parts and tonnages, has an image preview tool, and a Save and Load feature. More features are expected to follow, so keep your eyes on it. The Geomorph Shipyard can be found by clicking [HERE].

As always, thanks to Eric B. Smith for doing the original image file conversion. I'm sure he is happy to see his work put to good use. Tools like these are a welcome part of the geomorph family and I encourage other developers to create similar work, provided it be made freely available to everyone. Great job to all involved!
