Question about the upcomming SFC file

Will there be the capability to build a custom Alien on the fly with out having to breaking out the editor?
 
No to Alien Race, Yes to Star Ships, Power Armor, etc...
There aren't currently any plans for an on-the-fly Race builder. Until recently, it was prohibitively complicated. Since Savage Worlds Deluxe, though, they've adopted the Race building system which quantifies it a bit better. The hitch comes when you have the Racial Properties with variables (Trait-affecting mainly: The Attributes alterations, the Skill mods). It would require going through and pre-building all of those for each type of Attribute-affecting and Skill-affecting Racial Property so they'd be available as selections, I could see it perhaps being workable. It leaves a few out in the cold, unless you pre-define them for the campaign (I'm thinking of Knowledge Skill mods)
It's one of the issues you run into when it' so open ended. Even with the new system it gets complicated quickly.
 
I did predefine the Attribute mods in my user file. I had a bit of fun with the names, particularly the below average versions.
