Now with added dungeon names and dungeon room names.
This is amazing!  Where did you get the name generator!  I've found the best way to make dungeons using the procgen tables in FL is to let a dungeon map generator (e.g. https://donjon.bin.sh/d20/dungeon/ ) procgen my map, then use the tables to inhabit the rooms.  The map generator handles how many entrances, whether doors are locked, and size of rooms and so forth for me.  FL lets me fill in the contents. 

Your dungeon generator is good for filling in the contents.  I just throw a map into a word doc, then proc contents from your generator until I get enough interesting rooms.  (Or I could use the book and dice, but that's not why we're in this thread!)

I got the name generator from this - https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/11 ... geon-Names

It would be great if I had access to the lists used to generate the dungeons from Donjon as this would add to the dungeon details.

hey lupex!

hah, i've been at this longer, perhaps.  your dungeon generator is off to a great start.  its very well laid-out and readable, and its awesome that rooms have unique names.

for adding more details, the only advice i might give is steal ideas shamelessly, but adapt it all to your own style.  look at other random dungeon generators, and notice what you like about them.  like, graffiti on the walls?  that's a neat idea, what sort of graffiti makes sense for your generator?  but definitely keep adding to it.

i look forward to seeing your generator continue to improve.  skål!

Wow, it feels like I have a celebrity stalker, lol.

Thanks for the kind words and advice, the generators you have on your site are very cool and will now see a lot of use at my table. I don't suppose you might be willing to share any of the tables you use to generate villages or NPCs for me to steal?

I too would like to voice my appreciation for your hard work. I've already made good use of your generators in the week since I found them.
