Topic: Migrating Characters to the New System
I'm getting closer to releasing the new skills-based code, and have been thinking about how to "transfer" existing characters...mostly how to manage the attributes (SMACK). I really didn't want to set up a special screen for it, but you guys would need a way to set up your attributes the way you wanted. So what I've decided to do is this:
Your attributes will be reset to five each, then five more points will be added based on your current attribute levels. That is, if you have a lot more strength than anything else, most of those five extra points will go into strength. When done, you'll have the same amount of attribute points as any new character...but then you'll be marked to level up back to your current level. You'll get the normal level-up screen, and will have to do that repeatedly until you're "back" to your original levels.
Your perks will be gone, so that you can pick new power-ups instead. Ubers will be refunded back to your account pool for you to spend as normal.
If you decide you don't like your automatic attribute setup, you can let me know and I'll manually change it for you, but I'll only do that once...so be sure. 
By default, all existing characters will be Mutants instead of Human, meaning you will be effected by mutations as you level-up. If you don't want that, please let me know before you level-up your transformed character.
You will retain all items, quest status, etc.
