Good to know. 😀

Kudo's on your efforts to date but I have been pondering over your project and come to the following conclusion: You are putting in considerable effort aimed at a game that VERY few people play. Unless you are doing it out of an unbridled passion for this game and the fact that you MUST have a portal like this for your own personal use, then I really cannot justify you going to all this effort to appease the masses, it seems pointless. And if you are doing it for that reason, then there is probably no reason to broadcast it far and wide given its a kind of personal thing which for the most part will preclude others given they have no StarTrucker account or indeed want one. The very act of asking for input from others on this project is hampered by that fact, I had a look at the site with a veiw to provide some insight but I find my account now deleted because of the fact I cannot produce a StarTrucker game key. You seem competent enough from a development point of veiw, it appears you simply need to focus on something that those masses can all embrace. 🙂

Cannot see how to add an image for a created VTC, probably needs to be something on the creation and profile pages.

Tells me I need to login to apply, however I am logged in, so we begin a loop.

Great job, just need to address the <input type="submit" id="submit-button-register" class="btn btn-primary" value="Register" disabled=""> for the register and login buttons as they don't work.

Like peterisgb said, some screenshots would be interesting. What version of PHP, what other dependencies and is it fully responsive?

Interesting, are the various activities modular or hard coded into the game?

Slots.php, roulette.php, poker.php and buy_property.php all return blank pages or is there nothing there yet? Heist.php should return a notification similar to gang_crime.php, instead of the white page with a bit of text top left. Add a sitemap and perhaps a robots.txt file. Run the site through https://seositecheckup.com and try and address some of the shortcomings (if possible). Run the site through https://www.immuniweb.com and address and shortcomings found (if possible).

Landing Page: Console errors. Remove floating header, was better without and you already have that name in the logo ... it's repetitious. Add a favicon. Add a ToS page/link. Add a privacy policy page/link. The logo size is far too large and it's weight is 2.3MB, reduce the dimensions and compress the file ... maybe use webp format for better results. Needs to be more contrast between the auth.card and background container. Run 'Lighthouse' for both desktop and mobile results and implement whatever changes to increase the 'Performance' scores. Have at it and keep up the good work.

All good, I was able to log in after I cleared the browser cache.

Working fine for me.

Let us know what you go with. 🙂

gRPG is now open source also ... check it on Github.

Its awesome isn't it, although this is a cover by TinaS ... she really rocks it. 🎸

Uridiums 'Theatre' mod (with a contribution from AlizHarb) running on a version of gRPG at LT which is actually kind of compelling to use.

Howdy, I believe he meant the copy was for @Uridium to include with his comparing of various versions.

I clicked to view it working and umm, it works ... great job. 🙂 NB - Just to be clear, this version of @Uridium 'Theatre' mod is for gRPG V2.

@Inveteratus and @newttster, some very notable and interesting things you address above, makes for a great read. Does anyone have any insight into how Joe Chedburn and TORN manage that games economy, given they are likely the benchmark in terms of longevity and success? I can only imagine that many hours of debate and pouring over what works and what does not, with plenty of statistical analysis is/was involved as the game progressed. Joe would not have the benefit of all this data or the support staff to rely on early days but yet this game has turned into a bit of a monster, is he a savant perhaps or maybe was just in the right place at the right time? What about we invite him along to MWG's as a guest typer and pick his brains? 🙂

My suggestion was not to wipe out random players but rather cull/remove from the game inactive players (maybe after six months of no show) thereby removing those monies from the game. Those points you offer above certainly have merit and could provide some valid ways by which to keep a games economy in check.

Stop players making money or taking a bit of money out of the game huh. I am toying with the idea of a 'plandemic' mod, where once in a blue moon an insidious affliction rears its ugly head, wipes out a number of accounts thereby reducing the games economy by the value of the monies held by those accounts PLUS it removes a set percentage of the remaining player accounts monies by way of the cost of dealing with this blight. As far as the removing of accounts, it should probably cull users who have not presented for a given period of time, let's say after 6 months of inactivity and I envision a 10% reduction of monies for the remaining players. What does everyone think, or is it too soon? 🤣

What MNG said above, both educational and inspirational ... thanks @Inveteratus.

Howdy MNG, thanks for the kind words, it's a work in progress. As for your mobile responsive template, if I did, I have not come across it to date ... cheers.

You can download it here ... autoload.php · GitHub.

Composer is a dependency manager for PHP, you have downloaded it, but have you installed it?
