ingame machines and gameplay build progressing.

expanding ship hull generation to include some hullplating over the current gaps. WIP, and there's gaps in the coverage but those are getting patched

first item: more new enemies for the roster.

second item: level generation is now able to give the ship a stable hull. this took a while because as it turns out the math to determine "outside edge of the ship" was a bit more complex then first intended.

testing the mood and ambience of things as i get player control systems wired into the text frontend.

HUD test

new HUD and player test. endless terrain generation works in a basic test. exact tone of the world and setting is being refined more

the UI states work now.

the star generation is running once again finally. sorry it took a year but the game engine switchover took a while and for the engine itself to update some things.

good news: endless generation of multiple ships is possible, as is progression with travel

bad news: crossing a gap for five boring minutes is unacceptable

possible solution: no more spaceships? switch to endless terrain?
