I love working on the terminal and this looks great, but can I ask why do you require to sign in? To be that's a bit of a downer :(

I am working for a while on a command line game about spacepirates playing basketball across the galaxy. The game is a basketball managerial game with some pirate-y stuff. It's a P2P game with no central server, built on top of libp2p.

My family is from Sicily, and I remember taking this train every year when I was a kid. After several years, I took it again last summer and was bufflled at how inefficient the whole ordeal was... Basically you have to wait for the train wa

I agree with that comment. Experts can be wrong, of course, but the null hypothesis is that their opinion is 'more correct' than that of a science journalist. As an aside, nobody really believed the earth was flat: https:/&#

True, I can see your public key, username, and IP I guess. I only log the username and hash of the public key/password that I use for storing save files (the logs are for debugging, but I swear I don't sell them to google). You ca

My server can't handle all the traffic, guess it's an opportunity to show that the game doesn't need a central authority to keep working. I created another relayer and ssh node on 85.214.130.204, you can either ssh to this ma

Thanks! I agree, I really need to write a wiki or something. The problem is that this game started as a basketball managerial game and then got completely derailed as I kept implementing whatever I thought was cool at the moment. I think th

At the beginning of the match, a match ID is created. Randomness is then seeded from this ID and every random event is determined consistently. If you want, a game could be completely simulated just based on the initial ID.

Thanks:) Basically users can interact by playing basketball games against each other or by trading players. This sort of interactions are handled with something similar to a TCP handshake, since we must ensure that we end up with a consiste
