Radio Communications

We need multiple voices for players and Non Player Characters so please consider recording and contributing any part you wish. These will be used as selected by editors and programmers like ourselves as we need them to flesh the user environment. There is no guarantee your contribution will be used indefinately but contributions are scarce so I suspect unless there is major discrepancy somehow your contribution will be used. Perhaps it inspires someone else to do even better. Thus your effort will not be wasted. We are overproducinng and cutting and pasting just like the paid pros do but we do not have budget overruns, except for personally required equipment and time. 8) 71.161.8.137 00:47, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

draft for .o1 level Space Traffic Control in initial engineering prototypes of gameplay

Voice Pilot

"Spaceport Control this is Freighter Alpha X-ray fourteen requesting clearance to commence countdown to launch."

Voice Tower

"Negative Freigther Alpha X-ray fourteen. Hold for incoming vertical landing.

Voice Pilot

That's a Roger Tower, Alpha X-ray fourteen is holding.

Background roar of rocket thruster splash as other spacecraft lands

Voice Tower

Alpha X-ray fourteen you are cleared for launch. Window closes in ten minutes.

Voice Pilot

Roger that Tower, Alpha X-ray fourteen is counting down at to launch at this time.... 5 ...4...3.....2....1.... we have ignition!

Background roar of own vehicle here.

What is needed, as many voices as possible without putting same distinctive voice in both the vehicle and the tower at the same time.

A pssoible/suggested approach

Find a friend, parent or sibling to read the parts with you in the same room as you record or separately in a Jam Session. Help may be available by pickup or appointment from audio engineering. A third way is read both parts yourself, make one a cartoon character caricuture of yourself or someone you know (no spurious cruelty please). Please list other ways here as you think of them.

By all mean adlib and add Foley Effects, our audio and programming guys will be exercising the mod rights to chop up recording into animation clips and interactive varying dialogues. Think Wing Commander. Please use the most liberating of licenses when you upload.

draft material for .5 release

a model for space based ATC

Space Trafic control has various levels

One was indivdual space ports

This controls the launch windows and landings but essentialy the aim is to put spacecraft into an entry point for orbit spaced.

Level 2 is Orbit space - ( Kind of like a 'metropolitan' airspace?) Essentialy this has local traffic and approach control
Level 3 is Flight lanes, - these are like air lanes...

But note these take account of 3d rather than 2D (and vary based on planetyr position

The model is based upon our team's current understanding of how earthbound ATC is structured

Level 4 Is the space equivlant of an Instrument Flight Rules zone

In this model you have 'Red' regions I.E No fly areas which are either premenant (ussaly for the saftey of craft) and temporary ones (due to asteroids and so on).

The suitability of this model depends on how advanced your spacecraft are but Orbital Space can be bit cultters by drone satallites and so on we are using very advanced spacecraft because we wish to ease real constraints a bit to allow for more fun in the game.

How ATC works on Wikipedia:

Maybe check flight School manuals We might also want to look into what the Orbiter sim people use?

For fun during trip to moon we dodge trash instead of blast asteroids, unless and when a NEO wanders in at us.

We need to keep in mind that in game programming the trick is keep game simple enough we can get it started then built towords better simulations if it enhances fun and educational goals of the game.
