INQWeaponNoteParser.js

Purpose

The INQWeaponNoteParser was made primarily to parse the Weapon Notes on Character Sheets and turn them into INQWeapon objects. An example Weapon Note is as follows: Astartes Combat Knife (1d10 + 8 R; Pen 2; Balanced).

Usage

It is suggested that you do not use this prototype directly. Instead, let INQWeapon() use it.

The string is parsed by [INQLinkParser.js]. The Name of the INQLink is used for the INQWeapon Name. The substring inside the outer most parenthesis is split by commas and semicolons and each piece is analyzed separately to fill out the details of the INQWeapon object.
