I had the day off and was going to get a lot done.\u00a0 Here’s how the day went.<\/p>\n
I went down stairs to work on the computer.<\/p>\n
Oh look, there’s face book, I should update that and see what’s going on.<\/p>\n
A few minutes later (many actually) I click on the email tab.<\/p>\n
After reading and sorting out that email I moved onto another email tab.<\/p>\n
That one done I remembered a couple of online builder type games, that need their daily updating.<\/p>\n
After all that, I remembered I wanted to order a Raspberry Pi.\u00a0 I’ve never had one before, so I have to look through all the goodies.\u00a0\u00a0I should have a case, and a power supply and an sd card with an OS.\u00a0 You know what they say, “Time flies when your having fun”.<\/p>\n
So there went the whole morning wasted on not getting anything done.<\/p>\n
On to Plan B.\u00a0 I found a spiral notebook and got to work.\u00a0 I wanted this game\/environment to be like a text adventure.\u00a0 You move around based on what you read in the descriptions by typing commands as small sentences.\u00a0 Sometimes just one word, like a direction (north, east, south and west) to move.\u00a0 I plan on using at least North, North East, East, South East, South, South West, West, North West, Up and Down to start with.<\/p>\n
I want at least some of the user\/players to be able to expand the environment by being able to add on as they go.\u00a0 This was a hanging point for me because I didn’t want something hokey to differentiate between players and builders.\u00a0 I figured I would code in a flag for the user and come up with a plan a little later once I get the environment working to tell who was who and impose limitations on the player.\u00a0 Along these same lines, I need to come up with a way to identify each person so they can interact when they are in the same place.<\/p>\n
