Subject: Maps and Such
I have found a page that is used to randomly generate maps for RPGs. Most of the stuff wouldn't be too useful for FT and the like, but.... They also have a world map generator, and a system for creating star maps and planetary systems. The system generator is quite impressive, and for you people doing campaign games, it might be very useful. The output gives the number of planets, the mass, the gravity, the atmospheric pressure, the average surface temp.... Lots of stuff. Habitable worlds do seem a bit rare, though.... The URL is: http://www.cgi-bin.com/ForIronyGames/StarForm.pl The Star maps can be found at: http://www.irony.com/iG-Space.html Hope someone finds these useful.
