Is there any one time purchase worldbuilding software ?
If you know your way around Docker or can set up a php -environment you can host Kanka yourself.
-
Worldbuilding Software
Here is the github repository. There is a bit of a tutorial there but I don't know how good it is as it did not exist when I was building my instance (I also think it uses Docker, while I just host on Windows with WAMP).
-
Campaign managing online software
Here's the Github page
-
Can we make a big list of VTTs? Can you sell us on your favorites?
Yeah, you can find the github here. I use Wampserver to host it.
-
Worldbuilding App - determining interest
Open Source, and easily self-hostable ideally via a docker container similar to kanka
- World Anvil
-
What tools do you use during your play sessions?
We also use kanka.io as a player resource. They take turns writing the journal entry for the current session, linking up NPCs, locations etc, and making notes of the stuff their characters learn and/or figure out.
-
Any recommendations for an online shared (fictional) calendar?
I use https://kanka.io for my games and you can create a custom calendar there. You can add weather, moon cycles, seasons, all the fun stuff.
-
Managing large numbers of NPCs and locations in an urban campaign
I use https://kanka.io to manage my campaign, if you're familiar with World Anvil it's the same idea. Like a wiki site for your game.

This game is so complex!!! How do you GM manage all the details that orbit a game session?
Chummer is a program that can be used to build shadowrun characters, and to look up rules and such here is the git hub page for it.
-
Chummer 5e: the program suddenly won't open. Help.
That could pretty much be the case, considering that the antivirus seems to be what caused the issue in the first place, but looking close, even in the preview in GitHub the Chummer5.exe doesn't appear (https://github.com/chummer5a/chummer5a), and that page explicitly says that you have to run this file to install the program, so that's REALLY weird.
