I've moved this reply over to the Hard Sci-fi muds thread, hope I'm
not confusing or losing anyone by doing so.

Assuming an area generator to bear the brunt of the building work, I believe
the models described above, including functionally parallel models, to
be the most interesting type of sci fi mud universe to implement.
Elsewhere in this thread we've discussed a number of plot-devices to
achieve the same functional ends as the model above. They all give a
plausible reason for having a functionally-finite mud universe of any
reasonable size. They are also expandable models, allowing star
systems to be added to the mud as desired without requiring any new
plot-devices.

If you ever decide to release your generator, put me on the
distribution list :) I've attempted to do similar things twice in
the past and it looks as if I'll soon be developing a similar
generator. (Make that attempting to develop.) It will be
interesting to compare notes.

I need to modify this slightly, I've been messing around a bit on
swmud and there are some things in it that are implemented in an
interesting manner. Still, assuming that as the state of the art,
we've a ways to go.

Traveller, particularly book 6 Scouts, is worth a look, not sure if
it's still in print though, it was published by GDW some years back.
If and when you create a sci-fi mud, I look forward to playing in it. I'll
also have to keep an eye out for your writings.
The model I'm currently toying with is a trinary system such as Alpha
Centauri, having enough seperation between its stars that each has
planets. It assumes human colonization via relativistic flight and
interplanetary pc travel. Basically it gives me three star systems
for the price of one. At some point in the mud's development, I'll
introduce the plot-device of the discovery of an ancient alien
artifact - a jump gate network. (Hokey but workable.)
This approach should allow me to develop the mud and the virtual star
system generator in parallel. It's one example of how a mud could
start out as a model A universe and evolve into a model B universe.
