	The portal for the ~~solid~~ line requires no changes, so our final portal to deal with is for status tracking during play. Vehicles only need a damage track, so that's what we'll include. Tracking ammunition for weapons with hundreds or thousands of rounds is not practical on the character sheet, so we won't even try. This yields the revised portal below.

	===Printing Vehicles===		===Printing Vehicles===

			We currently just identify the existence of vehicles within the gear list. This is adequate when the vehicle is used as nothing more than a form of transportation. However, Savage Worlds includes full rules for vehicles in combat, and many of the vehicles are specifically intended for use in combat. Consequently, there will often be times when a player wants to see full details for his vehicles.

			We can incorporate vehicles into the character sheet in the exact same way as we handle allies. We'll use the exact same approach, showing the vehicle name as a title at the top, with the vehicle details and damage tracking beneath. Since we're using the same approach, we can copy what we have for allies and adapt it for use with vehicles.

			====The Table Portal====

			We'll start with the table portal. For vehicles, our table portal will be operating on picks within the character instead of separate minions. This means that we can use the default behaviors for both what to show in the table and how to sequence them. We'll still want our items to vary in height, and we'll provide our own title at the top of each, so we'll also need the gap between items. This results in the table portal below.

			id="oVehicle"

			<output_table
			component="Vehicle"
			showtemplate="oVehPick"
			varyheight="yes"
			showgapy="25">

			Now that we've got allies working, we need to add them to the character sheet output. We should also provide details on vehicles within the character sheet. This wiki entry outlines how to accomplish this.

	~~Allies are now working nicely.~~ Each ally can be printed out on a separate character sheet, just like a normal character. However, it would be much more convenient to print a compact representation of each ally with the main character. We don't have room for allies on the first page of the character sheet, but we should be able to add them without any problem on the second page.		Each ally can be printed out on a separate character sheet, just like a normal character. However, it would be much more convenient to print a compact representation of each ally along with the main character for which they are minions. We don't have room for allies on the first page of the character sheet, but we should be able to add them without any problem on the second page.

	We'll add allies after everything else is output for the character. We can define a new table of allies and integrate it easily into the layout for the second sheet. In addition to printing all the basic details for each ally, we also need to include a separate space to track damage, power points, and ammo for each ally.
