Netrunner Concurrent Decks Manager

This Python script can check Netrunner decks against a card collection so that you can build multiple decks at the same time (given that you have multiple core sets or some proxies for commonly used cards).

Instructions

1. Windows users can run the executable provided in the "dist" folder (or the releases section). Non-windows users can Install Python (3.10.5) and run the script manually (which requires installing the items at the top of the script).

2. File > "Load Collection" to load a card collection. This should be a UTF-8-SIG-formatted CSV file. If you have MS Excel, saving your spreadsheet as a CSV-file will do this for you.

   • The spreadsheet needs two columns:

     • Name: The card names. I recommend copy-pasting them over from NetrunnerDB.com.

     • Quantity: The amount of copies that you own of the card.

   • You can have as many other columns as you like. The sample files have a set and notes column for additional information and easier tracking.-

   • You do not need count up every version of each cards. The script will do this manually. For example, if you have a 3 Sure Gambles from the core set, 6 Sure Gambles from System Gateway and 6 Sure Gamble proxies that you made yourself, you can put them each different type on separate rows. The script will read them as 15 Sure Gambles.

   • I recommend setting up separate files for your Runner and your Corp cards.

3- File > "Select Decks Folder" to load a folder with Octgn decks.

• You can get an Octgn deck file from NetrunnerDB.com for every deck that you like. Click on Action > Octgn file.

• I recommend setting up separate folders for Runner decks and for Corp decks. (I went with this format as it is an easy-to-parse XML-file.)

• I like to label the decks I download with the name of the ID and faction for easier browsing. (Unfortunately, none of NetrunnerDB's deck downloads have that kind of meta-information in their file.)

4- After step 2 and 3, you should see your card collection in the upper left box, and your decks in the 4 box to the right of it.

• Click a deck to select it. The script will remove all decks that can no longer be made with the remaining cards from your collection from the other boxes.

• The decklists for selected decks become visible underneath the deck.

• Double-click a deck to open the Octgn file.

• Select a different deck to update your options.

• Use the reset options in the menu bar to reset as needed.

5- Have fun, and always be running!

About the Sample Files

I only added cards that I have in my own collection to them, but there is no reason why you could not support any Netrunner card ever made. The sample files show a collection that includes:

• Ashes cycle (with Uprising Booster Pack)

• NSG System Gateway x2

• Project APEX System Gateway Proxies x2

• System Update 2021

• Project APEX System Update 2021 Proxies

• Borealis cycle (with Midnight Sun Booster Pack)

• The Automata Initiative

For the Netrunner decks, I download a number of popular decks from NetrunnerDB.com. The most important cards needed to support a lot of options are System Gateway cards and maybe a second System Update 2021.
