Star Army Item Generator Thread

There is no longer a need for trying to get more or less items to fill a list, as long as the list is complete.

The numerical list limit of 100 items has been done away with in the recoded version of the SAIGD.
 
Well, for whatever reason, this new list isn't working. While I did do away with the limit, it still seems to fail, saying that it's outside the bounds of the array.


I need someone who knows more about Visual Basic.NET to help me debug this...is anyone able to?


Edit: I figured it out. It works. There are no limits on size, period, that I am aware of. Still, I'd like a debugger, if only to streamline the code.

Making it work took some minor edits to the code though. After testing, I'll release it as Version 2.1, with this list included.
 
It'll be fun to come across this stuff on travels in random events.

Luca: "Hey guys look! Inexplicable boxes and barrels in the yard!" (Everyone rips into a box like it's Christmas)
Jim: "Ohh, Cookies!"
Mitch: "10mm Ammo!"
John: "Pornography!"
Lae: "Lacy Undergarments...?"
Mel: "Scarves!"
Crane: "Packing Pellets...?"
Vincent: "... a 20 pound Chocolate Bunny!?"

Anyway, some late additions to the list:

 
You're awesome, Luca.
 
Several tons of literature
1 shipment of IWI FL-10 "Porcupine" Flechette Rifles
5 Shipments of IWI LCP-9 "Vigilant" Sidearms
5 Crates of exotic liquor
[manifest incomplete. Retrieving data.]

Oh, and also:

How about "Powerthirst"?

Dude, that would be great. We dont need cloning anymore because everybody is going to produce 400 BABIES.

I assume youre suggesting it in jest.
 

It might be worth having the app read these from a flat ascii .txt file, recognizing line-returns as "next object" and anything in <<>> as quantity or size or something.
 
Toshiro, do we have a generator with the Misc Cargo list available?
 
fish sticks
sloppy joe mix
chili beans
indentured servants
refugees
immigrants
exotic pets
"Uncle Freeman wants YOU" posters
Droksin

Just a little list that I thought up.. some Azorean-related, some not.
 
 
I don't think all of your suggestions are appropriate to add, Osakanone.

Sorry guys, couldn't resist.

But no, seriously? Think of silly things, like clothes, tool-kits, rations, etc. Even things like conduits, circuit breakers, fuses, capacitors, mother-boards, helm consoles, furniture, small arms, people's private belongings (photographs, cash-cards, trinkets, alcohol, music) etc.
 
I modified my current SAIG version to have a Pirating list.

Code:

The first and third I laughed on.

 
I saw talk of a Nepleslian energy drink. I believe Kokuten made one up eons ago, and called it either SLAM, Crash, or something along those lines. I'll have to look it up later, but it's lying around somewhere in the HiGA plot. And, some contributions of my own to the list:
