User Guide

This is currently a very brief note on how to use the software.

Creating Sectors

Creation of sectors is handled by the uk.org.glendale.rpg.traveller.sectors.Sector class. The only way to configure this is currently by editing the code.

It will create a new sector, and populate it with stars and planets. The planets will be uninhabited.

Alternatively, sectors can be generated from UWP data. See the page on Data Import for details. Such sectors will have populated worlds if the UWP data includes this.

Populating Worlds

Class: uk.org.glendale.rpg.traveller.civilisation.Empire

To populate worlds, use the above class. This takes a sector, and finds all uninhabited systems and tries to stick a colony on them.

Creating Maps

Class: uk.org.glendale.rpg.traveller.worlds.WorldBuilder

To create world maps, use the WorldBuilder class which can be used to create a world map, and a 3D globe, and stick them in the database.

Creation of 3D globes requires the Java3D APIs to be installed.
