i am starting to approach the finish line with this thing.
right now, i am implementing a "scoring" system based off the data the computer/sensors collect. roughly speaking, you will get points for building generator setups that produce a lot of power output very quickly. high scores will be saved across rounds. i am hoping to breath some life back into the CE/engineering jobs through this competition (of sorts), and what i think would be really cool is if there were reward/medals/etc. for certain achievements. i also started a second, private, branch for things i'd like to keep secret -- throughout coding this i got pretty familiar with the atmospherics engine & had a lot of ideas to enhance this aspect of the game in a way where people would have to dig a little to discover.
