Think Tank 3

Please add your discussion topics here. Create a title and a detailed description (this will allow the other to prepare them-selfs for the discussions). At the Think Tank you will be asked to open the discussion for your topic.

Proposals

• Build systems (patrick): So far we used automake to build Orxonox. But as we all know, automake makes our lives harder than it should. Let's change to another system. Suggestions (please add more):
  • SCons
  • GMake
• Orxonox V2? (patrick): The game idea: If we take a third party game engine we are able to focus more on game-specific topics. Let's define a goal we want to reach over several years but more imporant: let's define a short time goal, that we will reach within the next semester. Let's work in iterations (each cycle creates a running game), let's focus on game development (instead of engine development).
• Orxonox V2?

Topics from the Forum

Owners: please add these topics to the 'proposal' section (with a nice description:D ):

• The schedule of the PPS, because this semester will only have 13 weeks (last semester had 14, normal is 15) (x3n)
• The rework of the World Entities (x3n)
• Maybe some changes on the basic math-classes (vector and quaternion), because they are unpractical (I'll explain what I mean when I have time) (x3n)
• More (self) teaching → more efficiency → better results → better PPS → more popularity? (beni)
• Physics engine and Collision Model (bensch)
