MatrixGenerator is a program to create a matrixsystem for Shadowrun II.
The rules are taken of Shadowrun V2.01D. Some new rules are taken of
`Germany in the Shadows (?)'. All options could be excluded or
included.

Programoptions
--------------
You can specify options, which influences the program.
possible options are:
-a <Nodes> Number of nodes in the system, between 5 and 100. if you
want to get larger systems, you have to create 2 systems
and connect it by SAN.
-b Option to include blue nodes. in a blue node you can´t
find information, datavalue or IC.
-c Rules of Virtual Reality, the lowest securelevel is the have
of the maximum and the securecode is two levels below
the highest, z.B. red-8 -> the lowest ist green-4.
-d save the internal datastructure. The size is about 6K,
its the whole info of the system.
-f put the status into a file
-g option for `Germany in the Shadows' (?)
purple and black nodes!
-h Shadow undes the nodes, looks good!
-i Maximal number of the information
-l <Sprache> Other output-language. standard is english.
implemented : g (german)
-m <Anzahl> Maximal number of SAN
-n no money into datastore
-r <Level> standardlevel for all nodes. they can be one higher
or one lower.
Values: 2 - blue 3 - green
4 - orange 5 - red
With option -g :
6 - purple 7 - black
-s <Name> standardpath for all files.
-t outputfiles (Text) in LaTeX
-u special information in datastore always with Scramble-IC
-v datavalues in datastore protected by an IC
-x no IC in nodes
-z randomfunction, values in datastores +/- 10 percent,
size +/- 5Mp.
-p use prefsfile MatrixGen.pre
-o <Filename> load a with option -d save structure of a matrix
The PrefsFile
-------------
NODES 5..100 option -a
BLUENODES YES or NO YES = option -b
STATUSFILE YES or NO YES = option -f
GERMAN YES or NO YES = option -g
SHADOW YES or NO YES = option -h
IMPORTANT 0..NODES option -i
LANGUAGE ENGLISH or DEUTSCH option -l
MAXSAN 1..10 option -m
NOMONEY YES or NO YES = option -n
STANDARDUSE YES or NO YES = option -r
STANDARDLEVEL 2..5(7) Parameter of option -r
STANDARDFILE RAM:Matrix option -s
OUTPUT ASCII or TEX option -t (TeX)
RANDOM YES or NO YES = option -z
DATAFIELD YES or NO YES = option -d
NOIC YES or NO YES = option -x
ALWAYSIC YES or NO YES = option -u
ALWAYSDS YES or NO YES = option -v
CHECKDL YES oder NO YES = Option -c
The last entry must be [END], or the program don´t terminate.
Output-Files
------------
*.TeX Textdescription LaTeX-Format
*.DOC Textdescription ASCII-Format
*.IFF Graphic-Format, the number is the number of the special
types of node, the figure stands for an IC.
*.STAT StatusFile
*.SRC Internal datastructure to save a matrixsytem in compressed form
Import-Files
------------
The programm will create a standard file, it is used to create a
description file of the matrixsystem. The standard files
are grouped into:
ASC-*.e Files Textdescription ASCII-Format, Language English
ASC-*.g Files Textdescription LaTeX-Format, Language German
TeX-*.e Files Textdescription ASCII-Format, Language English
TeX-*.g Files Textdescription LaTeX-Format, Language German
The structure of the files are simply. Codewords are included in [],
end of line are charcterized by \n.
Specialities of the program
---------------------------
While creating the matrixsystem, this option are automatically used:
- at least one I/O-Port
- Randomly inserted connections between nodes
- nodes with rating one didn´t exists (target number >= 2)
- In blue nodes neither datavalues nor information
- nodes connected over `big' distance
Requirements
------------
MatrixGen should work on all Amiga machines with all Workbench
and Kickstarts.
tested on Amiga 2000 (GVP 68040) mit HD und 1MB Chip und 8MB Fast
Amiga 2000 (68000) mit Floppy und 1MB Chip
Amiga 2000 (68030) mit Floppy und 1MB Chip
Amiga 500 (68000) mit HD und 512MB Chip, 1MB Chip
Amiga 500 (68030) mit Floppy, 1MB Chip, 4MB Fast
Amiga 500 (68030) mit HD, 1MB Chip, 2MB Fast
History
-------
The program was written in C, compiled with GnuC++.
v1.0 Only a graphik was created. Every node has its ratings.
v1.1 Including datastores (informationen and value)
v2.0 new options
Options: -a, -b, -g, -i, -m, -s, -r, -n, -z
V2.01 more new options
Options: -h
v2.1 option Prefs-File
Options: -p, -f
v2.2 Output LaTeX-Format, IC-functs
Options: -t, -l, -x
v2.3 new dataoptions
Options: -d, -o, -u, -v
v2.4 correcting small mistakes
v3.0 Should work an all Amigas
