1st Rough Moonscape
Alright, I have data and code to produce a rough moonscape on the screen (see attached image). Even though this moonscape is a placeholder for fancier graphics to be added later, I am not pleased with the appearance of it. It seems to me I should to extend the moonscape down to cover more of the screen. To do so I would need to scrunch down my planned control panel design (not shown). At any rate I can make that sort of change almost any time in the future, so I need to go ahead now and add the player controlled lander. I want to work out the physics of the ship's motion and player controls first, and then add a fancier moonscape when the core game engine is up and running. Also, while putting the moonscape data together I thought to myself this is the sort of thing a computer can do. Generation of a random moonscape with some constraints is not that complicated of a problem in software. So in the end I am considering the possibility of having a random moonscape generator in the code allowing for more replay value. Cheers!Rob
