main menu controls work now. work on the new game start of setting the factions properties can begin now. after that, i can plug that info into the world generation, and we're off into gameplay.

ingame machines and gameplay build progressing.

player UI is coming together.

the UI states work now.

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

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.

minor progress on the new procgen code

limited working code for painting planets, not all the sections work right just yet, sadly.

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.

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?
