    Thanks. I can think of several things:

    The code currently expects the tech-level to be a decimal number, not a hex code. So if you supply tech level A-F, it fails.

    There is no standard for how to indicate a mix of bases. The traditional UWP code tries to code all combinations into a single byte where as I just handle the letters RSNCTG to draw the appropriate base or a gas giant. If you tried any other letter or number instead, it fails.

    I'd be interested in fixing the script to handle whatever people expect it to handle. If you could provide a list of UWP entries that failed, I'll take a look.

    Also, I realized that empty hexes didn't contain coordinates, so I fixed that.
