This is todays progress, i have the ability to render planets and only render what is on screen so that i can have billions of planets. they have randomized locations.

this is consept art of what i want, the ability to view the world map and inside your ship so that you can f.eks experiment on your ship width what you buy on the world map. the required system is allready in the engine because of my topdown fantasy project. (1) WIP Early consept, Simengine game. - YouTube 

Fixed render and derender on the y axis.

Added basic coloring.

Fixed a weird secound color rendering bug.

The color bug i fixed

Reworked the mapeditor to work with colorblocks. Now i have to rewrite the translation algorythm.

Fixed Performance.

Rewritten planetwireframe rendering to increase performanse, and given planets two colors instead of one.

Added inventory system.

Update on progress: currently taking vecation for one more week where im just focusing on messing with my new arduino robot car.

Coded in ship encounters. The plan now is to work on spacecombat and visual dammage.

Currently working on starting senario/tutorial.

Keep in mind everything shared here are placeholders so that i can setup the code. The senarioes may look alot different later on in development.

Todays updates: 

Added names to the planets and a list that i can extend to have more names later, if it runs out of names it starts form the first name again.

Added compass so that you can find out where the planets are by name and coordinates.(Compass is a WIP and does not have the right coords for all the planets currently).

Fixed the compass, it now shows the x and y distance to the planet

Added 30 new planet names.

Updated shiptexture in worldmap(frames are because now i have increased planets to 100)

Making sounds and AI voice lines. Also thinking of reverting to ascii style for characters because it makes them look more realistic and less like cartoon people.

Currently making ascii aliens so i can place them around the world.(This is my painting program so thats why there is a M also fps is not messured in that app)

Added retro programmed frequency music.
