Navigation Path-finding
by Raygoe on July 26, 2010, 10:42 am CDT
I've finished the Solar System's navigation path-finding algorithm. In reality, it doesn't do much except show you the path it would take if it could move, but its a start. I've already made a blog post if you want to see what I will be working on next.

In a slightly random bit of news, I am posting this news article from a Lynx browser. Sure is an ... interesting browser!

Finally!

It took 6 minutes with a KD-Tree Algorithm in Python, and it was a 20 Megabyte SQL dump file. However, finally, at long last, all the systems are linked correctly.

You can see that the interactive galaxy map now shows connections. I still have a few bugs to fix with it, but it generally works fine.

I'll post a HUGE map with all the connections on it on the blog and the forums. You can see the large scale map there.

Interactive Galaxy Map Mostly Functional
by Raygoe on July 16, 2010, 1:10 pm CDT
The Interactive Galaxy map is now mostly functional. It doesn't have the correct star colors and it also is a bit hard to navigate, but other than that, it's fine. I'll probably add some sort of mini-map so you know where you are in the large scale. I do need to fill in the center of the galaxy and then I can start making solar systems.
