This would be th best dial generator ever if you added in an option to print out useable dials i.e. I can print them out and glue them into my custom figs and play friends with them.
Wow. You're quick with this stuff. I'm not too sure what you're asking though, can you explain a little more?
Look at my avatar and signature. I'm all about the quickness.
There's the preview dial at the top of the page.
Then there's the section below there where you fill in the combat values and select the powers.
Would it be better if the combat values and selected powers were laid out in the same way as the preview dial at the top? With "Speed, Attack, Defense, Damage" on the left side of the form and the clicks going from 1-12, left to right, instead of top to bottom.
I hope that was clearer.

Sadly, that's not likely to happen since it takes more than JavaScript to pull it off. There's a dial generator on aduckwhat.com that does that, though. I like it quite a bit, but it doesn't generate bbCode and the dial images don't show special powers.
When you click the Generate Code button in Internet Explorer, some values get filled in as "undefined". That's Exploder for you. Use some other browser.
The Dial Generator @ ajatech.net works in IE just fine (doesn't do points cost calc, but it's great for BB Code).

Ohhh, gotcha. I kinda like it how it is to be honest. Mabey you could try it the other way and just show it to us.
It now generates bbCode to post here on HCRealms. It includes keywords, traits and special powers, but it doesn't calculate the cost of special powers. You'll have to guess on those.
I got it working on every browser I could think of except for Chrome. Chrome no-likey.
If I could rep you about 5 more times it still wouldn't justify the amount of rep you deserve lol
Yeah, it was a little wonky for me on Internet Explorer. I noticed in the code that it generated, that it filled certain areas with the word 'incomplete' in the fields when I selected all the powers and numbers (even the slots with not powers I selected 'none'). Also, the dial display didn't register powers, save for 1 click of invulnerability. I haven't tried it on Moazilla yet. I will later.
Also, canaaron, there's only been a handful (maybe 3 or 4, at least that I can think of) that had been given a range of 3. I can't think of any others that got any uneven number outside of 3. That's been the way clix have been designed for a long time. I'd imagine the reasoning is to keep rules simple and accessable to players new and old.
Dragon Man, Wasp, and Sydney Leach all have 5 range. Mary Marvel, Absorbing Man, and V Shazam! have 3 range. Also, it's a dial GENERATOR, I may like to give my characters a 3 or 5 range every now and then. >
Ah, I don't have any of those figures with 5 range. Only the ones with 3. You could manually enter it in the code easily. Just use the number above or below it for the actual point generator to get a fair estimate.
