Has anyone created a spreadsheet for their master control panel? Or maybe even an Adobe smartform?
Seems like you could digitize the MCPs and use them on an iPad or the like.

On this site here... fasaststcs.com...I know there are spreadsheet to calculate ship designs, and PDFs of the original MCP, but I'm not sure about an actual spreadsheet of the MCP.

I found those earlier this week but thanks for pointing them out!
I might take a crack at it myself.

I did. It mimics the layout from the computer version of the game. Done on Exel, it's pretty simple to fill in.
I'm away from home at the moment, but could upload examples when I get back on Monday.

Ok. So since I can't seem to share the original Exel ship sheet file, here is a screenshot example of what I use. Like I said, the layout mimics Jason Robinson's format for the computer version. The sheet itself is super simple to fill in on Exel, but also works well being filled in with pencil/pen. We use those transparent page protectors and dry erase/wet erase markers to put down pertinent stuff so we can reuse the sheets, but I've also had players just use light pencil marks and an eraser to fill in turn by turn.

That is absolutely brilliant! Incredibly well put together!

This is what the sheet looks like blank. It is capable of handling most ships, even the really big ones. I've also done starbases on this single sheet. I'm willing to share the file, if I can find a way to do so. LOL

Those look amazing! Well done, Swede!
I know I've shared files with friends via Google Drive, but I've also known them well. You can give folks access to a single folder on Drive with a link. Might be an option.

I created a simplified MCP spreadsheet for the basic rules. Intend to create one for the complex rules as well. Willing to share it if anyone is interested. <img src=" " alt="" style="max-width:100%;">
