Well, the title may be slightly misleading. It would be more of a civilization experiment (3d).
The Plan:
1. Multiplayer - NOT AN MMO!!! MMO's give the coder a workload beyond what it should be. Basically, 50 players on at the MOST.
2. Building - For this, it would be a simple [to an extent] system of variables set to an object. If anyone's ever played Stranded II(which I highly recommend), you'll understand what I mean. A player would set up a building site through a simple system of menus. They would add the proper resources to the site, and once they're all there, the building site would be replaced by a static model with a health property. Once this health variable reaches 0, the building simply disappears.
3. NO LEVELS
4. A set of literal roleplaying chat features (e.g. OOC, IC, etc.)
5. Combat would be completely real-time. A simple slash will do.
I will go into further detail if someone interested in this plan comes along.
I have a bit of experience with modeling, so for now, I'll be taking care of that. The primary focus of this is to see just how people would handle things if they had complete free will over how a civilization would come about, or if there would even be one at all.
