Control Worksheet

From Wiki for The Only Sheet
Jump to navigation Jump to search

The Control worksheet is the heart and soul of the Sheet. It allows you to Load and Save many aspects of your work. Characters, Races and Classes can all be saved and loaded back into the Sheet. The outputs generated by the Sheet are files with the extension ".tos" (it stands for 'The Only Sheet').


Character section

Character buttons: empty (left), non-empty (right)

Use the Character section to manage your current character. You can Load, Save or Reset your character. Once you define a character name, it will appear in this section.

Reset Character: Reset will completely erase all character information of the sheet, giving you a blank slate to work on.

Load Character: The Sheet can load any .tos file. Note that TOS+ cannot load the files created by TOS, which used the .mcs extension.

Save Character: This button is used to save your character to a .tos file.

The ".tos" files that the sheet generates are perfect to email to other subscriber to the Sheet! If your GM is also a subscriber to the Sheet, he could use your .tos file for the DM Tool!


Race section

Race buttons: empty (left), non-empty (right)

Use the Race section to manage a custom Race (which is not already integrated in the Sheet - check the Race List for a list of all Races already available in TOS+!)

You can Load, Save or Clear your custom Race.

Load Race: Load Race will allow you to load a custom race to use for your character.

Save Race: Save your custom race to a .tos file. Note that the word Race will be appended to the selected file name when you save. This is to indicate that this .tos file should be loaded as a Race.

Clear Race: Erases your custom Race.

There are many Races that have been created by the users on the Community Forum, and more are posted every day! You can also get help from the community if you are trying your hand at creating new content.


Class section

Class buttons: empty (left), defined but not used (middle), in use (right)

Use the three Class sections to manage up to 3 custom classes (which are not already integrated in the Sheet - check the Class List for a list of all Classes already available in TOS+!). Only slot #1 is shown on the right.

You can Load, Save or Clear your custom Class.

Load Class: Allow you to load a custom class in one of the Class slots. Once loaded, the words not used will be shown to indicate the class has not been selected on the Front Worksheet.

Save Class: Save your custom class to a .tos file. TOS+ will append the word class to the file name.

Clear Class: Erases your custom Class.

There are many Classes that have been created by the users on the Community Forum, and more are posted every day! You can also get help from the community if you are trying your hand at creating new content.
