I had the same idea, but I don't have net at home (still) and I have a really nasty firewall at work I do have enough webspace and bandwidth tho, to maybe later augment your work..Anyway Travis, I've been doing some concept work, so I'll just post it here so you can maybe use it..Rules: (unfortunatelly, we need a set of those too)- Anyone who wishes to participate, must make at least 1 custom base, as their home. - All faction claims must be available to others as addons - meaning, you cannot say, you have a base on Ganymede, unless you actually make a custom base and share it with others- In other words, you can only participate if you contribute to the sharing experience. This is simply put a very effective measure to automatically dismiss trollers and deadweights - Author credits must be respected and permission gained if so required . Meaning, you can't set up an installation with meshes of others people and claim it as your work alone. Credits where credits are due.- Site management MUST be separated from the game itself - otherwise, you may have a moderator restricting user rights or screwing up their addons, if they have a territorial issue in the game itself - We cannot trade Orbiter-related stuff (meshes, textures, sounds, etc.) as it is: a. Against Martin's rules b. Will create problems - e.g. if I say I will do a skin for She'Da'Lier alone and he then gives it to others, it will both be a breach of authorship, as well as a stupid thing of me to demand in the first place c. It would eventually kill addon development, because the fun of it will be lost.- We can only trade fictional stuff (like beer, gems, minerals, whatever) Phase 1: What we need for starters (PHP nuke and such packs should support most of this)- ability to upload and edit uploads- ability to add screenshots to uploads- ability to add a description and possibly receive feedback (comments)- user priveledges of at least three levels (guests - view and download - participants - upload and comment - and admins - all the rest of the not-so-fun stuff)- have some sort of download/view statisticsPhase 2: What would be nice, but may be too difficult to implement immediately- Some sort of diplomacy module - you could have your status (prestige points), declare disputes, alliances, wars, peace or run for Solar Council positions - basically a limited forum.- Solar Council (this name to-be-determined) - a fictional entity, who's sole responsability is to promote peace and declare outcasts (participants, who are generally viewed as troublemakes - in game terms of course) - Voting - a poll system, where various "political solutions" or decision could be put to vote.. The primary function being to select a Solar Council president (this title to-be-determined) and periodic votes on Prestige points.. Basically we evaluate eachother in terms of how honorable, fair and cooperative a player we are. All in good fun of course Of course, results may also indicate a player to be nasty, underhanded and evil in which case he may be delcared an Outcast.. but this would sort of be reserved for trollers that would manage to sneak into the game.- Some sort of trading system would be nice, but since we trade in fictional stuff only, rather useless Anyway, hope it helps Other suggestions invited.
