Functions and Spaceborne

I need to clear and redraw between moving peeps… drawRun(). The peeps are going right through that wall! 8-P I’ll have to fix that as well, but the trail-leaving peeps was a good place to leave things off. I need to make some progress on the new model world map, too! Check vorCllz() each time we add a new feature point, but figure out how to make all this happen fast? 8-P

I had a few words very early this morning, but not my drabble. I need to write the two functions, drawRun() in peeps and to check for vorCllz() in the NMWM, as well as some way of keeping peeps from going through the wooden wall, avoidWd()? If peepx and destx are on different sides of the wall, change destx and desty. That’s three functions and less than twenty minutes, so I’ll be getting them done after midnight…

I was thinking about my spaceborne workers and approximations. We start with about one percent of $⅓ Trillion or $3.33 Billion worth of early spaceborne production done by ‘millionaire’ spaceworkers doing work worth more than $100 million and needing millions in support and wages. We use my go-to 8% growth rate and get ten-fold growth or $33.5 Billion after thirty years in the 2050s and employ about two hundred spaceborne rockstars earning a few million. Wages goes up as the quarter power and workers go up as the ¾ power of production; even if this is not actually the case, we can actually expect these ‘rockstars’ to start their own businesses with venture capital and their own sweat equity, if and when their businesses fail to pay them properly or merely fail; it’s time to railroad and there’s gonna be a lot of trial and error until things shake out but old money with see the (potential) returns and throw money at it… A hundred years after that in the mid 22nd Century and that explosive growth and the spaceborne manufacturing would be $73.7 and more than the current GWP (meanwhile GWP has had over a century of slow growth, but the spaceborne economic sector is a large part of overall growth), about 60,000 spaceborne paid about $12 million, so at least some of these spaceborne workers will be able to live in habitats, perhaps retire to the Moon?
