New charts, template updates
- I finally got around to compiling a list of common area drops from the tables in the Perfect Bible. These tables document stuff like photons, recovery items, ores, gemstones and alloys. Up next will be weapon board drops. I'm not certain if I'll include them in the current tables or if I'll make separate tables for them like the PB does. But, I'll decide on that later. One thing I'd like to point out is that these tables have given me an idea of how we can handle inserting certain synthesis materials in our drop chart templates.
