I doubt I will have much time until the weekend as that strange real life world is such a pain and gets in the way a bit too often...
If functionality is there but not working as intended/should that is clearly a bug and should go in the thread that supperteddy57 has created. If the functionality is not there, then that is obviously a feature request and should marked appropriately in its own thread for evaluation by the developer. Likewise missing content is not really a bug - I know there are a few instances and I will attempt to identify them when found.
I agree with you entirely about automation - it would be lovely to have a fully automated ruleset for every game system - I can not see that ever happening, even 5E doesnt have that now (looking at you temporary max hit point reductions from undead)!
But ideally there should be a minimum standard agreed. Not my place to say what this minimum standard should be but basic stats (inc. equipment, recording abilities/spells...etc) for PC/NPC, making a standard attack against another target, applying damage to a target, everyday skill checks/standard saving throws from sheets and adding a comment to a combat tracker entity (doesnt have to be an effect) all seem to be good starting point to me. If not, then you might as well, like you say, just use the standard Core ruleset....
On another note - I do apologise if any comments I have made seem overtly aggressive - they were never intended to be. I fully support people having their own opinions and likewise hope people consider my opinions (doesnt mean they have to except mine - just consider)...
Once again many thanks for the forum and I hope the comments enable the ruleset to progress forward...
