Spoke with my attorney regarding copyright

Yeah I would not post it here. Links are another story. Got to work on my site too. I registered in October and it still says "this web site coming soon"

Anyway, the API code is mostly done. I am on the mapping in WBH. Just going to do plates and general land and water locations. That will provide some guidelines for using a tool like CC3.

After that comes the economic model (World Tamer's Handbook), then the user interface (boy that will be fun...).

This thing may even make the biggest gearhead I know happy.

Yeah me too. Looks like I might actually finish this one. .NET is so much faster, and its a good thing because time is hard to come by.

I will post updates as I go.

Maybe you could work with Hemdian on Universe?

I am actually preparing for my .NET certification. I learn better by doing, so I made up some projects with the point of simply allowing me to practice. Work alone is not enough to cover all the topics, and I spend enough time as it is.

So I made up some projects and I am working through them. I choose Traveller because automating the processes is difficult enough to require some significant effort. I started with the simplest problem first to practice some basic skills.

A usable game utility is really just a side effect of this effort. To be blunt, we do not play Traveller enough for me to justify the effort otherwise. It is seriously cool to produce something useable, but if it just sits around on a media somewhere then there are better uses for my time.

Of course, anyone that can use this for personal use is welcome to do so. It is purely an educational, non-profit effort.
