About Cosmic Companion
This app lets you randomly assign alien powers for games of Cosmic Encounter (2008 Fantasy Flight Games edition) so you can keep your alien sheets and flares in order for easy look-ups.
Filter by
* Game (include any of base, Alliance, Conflict, Dominion, Incursion, and Storm)
* Complexity (green/yellow/red)
* Name (excluded specific aliens)
* Game Setup (none, those requiring extra player color, or all)
* Conflicts (i.e. Oracle vs Magician. Plan to make this expandable)
It defaults to giving out 2 per player, but that's changeable as well.
When starting a new game, simply select your filters and click the Pick button. Find your alien sheets, and use the Hide option before passing the phone to the next player.
Once you've started the game, use the Start Game option to remove all aliens with game setup to make aliens like the Reincarnator easier to use.
There's a reference page that enables you to look up information on any alien.
Future versions will:
* Expand on ability to prevent conflicts
* Include more details on alien, like back story and flares
* Include a reference guide of cards (useful for the Mesmer who can transform artifact cards)
If you have any problems or feature requests, let me know!
The app now requests the following permissions:
android.permission.INTERNET
** This allows me to fetch updated data from my site so I can give you updates without having to update the app.
android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE
** This lets the app try to fetch updates only when connected to Wi-Fi.

Everything works as it should, so in terms of ease of use improvements: 1) Add an option to display all selected aliens at once, e.g. if 2 aliens each for 4 players, display all 8 with separations between each 2. This will help with handing them out all at once. 2) Add an option to select a certain number of each color, e.g. 2 green, 1 yellow, 1 red for each player. This could be done manually, but it would be easier all in one step.

This app is very helpful to manage alien and flare draws,specially during the setup.I didn't give five stars because sometimes when I play cosmic encounter I like to give 3+ flares to each player to chose the alien from,but I ask them to pick 2 flares for the game (the one of his chosen alien and another one),so the number of flares is always twice the number of players.I believe this can be supported by the app by adding a "draw X pick Y" mode,storing the picks per player so the others can be picked later

A really great app that we've found essential for playing. Well done! Only comment is that it could be great to add in shortcuts for exclusions. For example, I might want to make an alien list that excludes silly aliens that mash the strategy into the ground. On the other hand, I might want to play with no alternative win condition aliens or perhaps even only alternative win condition aliens. However I dont want to have to search through the exclusion list every single time we want to do this. In other words, if we could save some of these and then be able switch between them, that would really make this perfect.

I might be missing something here, but what's to stop someone just using redraw over and over until they get the alien they want? Would be nice to see the option to log redraws, similar to how number of draws are shown

Very handy, especially when everyone wants to read the same alien power. Also makes choosing aliens much quicker.

Great app, but it doesn't show up if you search for Cosmic Encounter. So I'm going to use the words Cosmic Encounter again. Cosmic Encounter.
