Micropolis (SimCity)
I have a long list of interesting ways to develop Micropolis (aka SimCity), which I have written about on my blog!
The source code is on Google Code, and I've been working on finishing up all the grunt work that requires familiarity with the code and would be hard for other people to do, to enable other people to work on the higher level stuff that depends on that.
There are two Micropolis projects:
- The old "micropolis-activity" which is the original TCL/Tk version of SimCity for Unix, which I ported to Linux and adapted to the OLPC.
- The new "MicropolisCore" C++/SWIG/Python module that I've cleaned up and I have started developing a user interface.
It would be best to put effort into developing the new MicropolisCore code for the long term, although there are some small tasks that could be done with the old TCL/Tk code for the short term.
