How are you storing the stats? As fields? As data dictionary entrees? In separate tiddlers?
In general, it's not a good idea to directly put the numbers into tables in TW5 tiddlers unless you only want to display them as static tables. Forever. In TW5 there are no sections or slices for extracting the data later. Whatever the data storage approach, as long as the data is consistent, it should be possible to create a view template that will display the data. It's always good at the start of a project like this to consider what outputs you are expecting. Then you can write routines that work with a handful of tiddlers to verify that things work before scaling up the project. -- Mark On Sunday, September 30, 2018 at 10:24:23 AM UTC-7, PWL wrote: > > Every entry has the same 14 stats, a gif and a significant amount of > text.
