Next up
the UI states work now.
testing the mood and ambience of things as i get player control systems wired into the text frontend.

new playermodel format, gen system upgraded with more options and roughly triple the ship size. enemy and item spawning to follow alongside with getting all ship parts to ideally generate
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?

HARMONY VOID is back ontrack with some huge design improvements and a setting change back to outerspace proper, specifically onto smaller scale procedurally generated spaceships.
