Procedurally generated and interactive faction territory map

[deleted]

Greenfire wishes to not be added to the map, as that would show their hidden outposts and open them up for attack. They are definitely not stationed near the top right...

darkwyvrenD Can my faction be added? Its the Zankaran Infinity Empire, we control 1180 star systems in the Outer rim on the top of the galaxy 🙂

darkwyvrenD This is great idea, love it.
Just curious how people will mix vanila faction with one mod faction and multiple mod faction together :S

faction borders!

The Ancient Army is dominating the very outer space.
They are controlling 'one' gigantic galaxy.

darkwyvrenD

Impenetra
like a seperate galaxy?
slight regret deepens

Impenetra

darkwyvrenD yes

darkwyvrenD

Impenetra if you can make an 800x800 black and white picture of that galaxy, representing the number of stars per pixel, and tell me the location of that galaxy relative to the milky way - ill do it 🙂

because allocating a whole galaxy to a faction is pretty op and unfair to the others.
e.g.

DarkPearl

darkwyvrenD So my faction is op we have a whole universe '-'

darkwyvrenD

DarkPearl its op, if you can just say 'demolish all other factions' and it has a good chance of succeeding. 🙂

darkwyvrenD Afterwards one can always say that the very powerful faction is a federal state or that it has other problem and that it does not invest in the galaxy.

Besides, I am happy to be your first example!

darkwyvrenD 2 questions, in your galaxy is there a Sol System? Has someone claimed it? If there is one and it belongs to nobody, I would like Earth Federation to control it, as well as some adjacent systems.
Btw, Nice interactive map, I hope you finish it, because it looks really good

DarkPearl

Jesus3747 to be fully faction-complete a galaxy would need at least 4-6 Earths since lots of factions made Earth related storys

darkwyvrenD

Jesus3747 yes there is a sol system in the Orion arm, yes someone is requesting to claim it 🤔

darkwyvrenD

DarkPearl very true, perhaps earth can be a point of contention

@darkwyvrenD Where did you do this?

darkwyvrenD why not generate a galaxy and plot faction territories on it?
It'll make it much more engaging to see who its neighbours are, what it claims and so on and whatnot.
So currently I got generating the galaxy down. It generates a galaxy of 1000 star systems

Doge420GoodGuy on my computer xd

Doge420GoodGuy

darkwyvrenD Any specification on program? Or is it made completely by you? I always wanted to create something like this map but i never seen a program/game/anything that could make it

DarkPearl

darkwyvrenD Just a question, how many star systems are in your simulation?

darkwyvrenD

DarkPearl up to 50000 because even my craptop has its RAM and CPU limits. rn its 10080 star systems for the milky way so enough.
