Planet Miner To Do List

Priority List

Render stuff
- Render a cube
- Render icosahedron
- Vertices to triangle mesh
- Subdivide icosahedron
Procedural worlds
- Morph vertices of the subdivided icosphere
- Terrain generation
- Planet scaling
Block game
1. World editing

Game Engine?
- Custom in C
  - Started work on one, kinda liking it so far
- Don't really like pre-built game engines
  - If I use one it'll likely be Godot
Voxelization
- Zoning
  - Each planet has its own coordinate system (non-voxelized)
  - Material is distributed in amorphous blobs containing a certain percent resource
  - Before world editing can begin, a work zone must be established to create a local voxelized coordinate system
Progression
- The cores of planets exist as large non-voxelized structures
  - Requires high level tools to mine
  - Contain lots of resources
    - Nickel
    - Iron
- Asteroids can be mined like planet cores
  - Less valuable resources
  - Mostly rock
  - Requires lower level tools
- Game starts on an Earth-like planet
  - Make basic tool with sticks rope and stone fragments
    - Stone fragments from smashing stones on rock
