Have Starship, Will Travel!

31 May 2023- Journaling Your Solo Roleplay

I'm working on a solo game...

This morning's prompt is 'flying monkeys', and I will be posting it here later, after I copy paste it into my journal.


I desire to run Space Adventure again, or at least write a roller coaster ride of an adventure which may never get run... Anyway, after reading up on 'Beyond the Wall', a no prep system where group character and village creation is roleplay, I of course want to do that for a starship and her crew.

There are of course several ways to approach this, from a captain finding a crew to crew as found family and community. Ownership is key; do the player characters have shares or is the ship owned by one player who doesn't have to be the captain, or anything in between?

We might be using some random tables for all this, as with BtW, but I don't own it and it's a fantasy OSR game, so I'm not really feeling it. I dimly remember how FASA Trek and Traveller worked. WEG Stars Wars is pretty much useless here, as I remember it being a random free-for-fall dropped ad hoc into the group! 8-P

Since player agency is important but this is a coop creation game, so back to shares; you buy in and the ship is PC property, it comes out of the character build.

This morning's prompt was 'code monkey'.


Have starship, will travel...

I want a starship and a crew, such a starship and such a crew!!! The game I want to run is all about space adventure, it’s my favorite kind of game. I want to run something about strange old worlds, aliens and blasters, starports and starships!


So a starship and her crew, the homeworld and starport.

Cludgy Code! 8-P

11 June 2023- Pushing out arcs!

An initial fan of colored triangles. Each tile in the fan which you click in changes to lime green and we get the points, center and first and second polygon border points in the triangle fan, if thst makes sense...
The page is not drawing the last triangle in the fan, 8-(
which shows up as light blue in the parent div. I have a gap. What I want is an arc of triangles, outside, around the second and then the first polygon border point.

Input a seed, please (the default is tau, or 2 pi), or click the button for a random seed number.

The page needs a number from which to generate some pseudo-random numbers.

World Data

This morning's prompt was 'penguin'.


So I fiddled with some older code and the thing is making a triangle but not all the way. This code monkey just needs to make that last tile and then figure out how to build a triangle fan off of the edge of the triangle tile which the user clicks... Yargh!!!
