-sst.py =-- Super Star Trek in Python
-
-This code is a Python translation of a C translation of a FORTRAN
-original dating back to 1973. Beautiful Python it is not. But it
-works.
-
-Dave Matuszek says:
-
-SRSCAN, MOVE, PHASERS, CALL, STATUS, IMPULSE, PHOTONS, ABANDON,
-LRSCAN, WARP, SHIELDS, DESTRUCT, CHART, REST, DOCK, QUIT, and DAMAGE
-were in the original non-"super" version of UT FORTRAN Star Trek.
-
-Tholians were not in the original. Dave is dubious about their merits.
-(They are now controlled by OPTION_THOLIAN and turned off if the game
-type is "plain".)
-
-Planets and dilithium crystals were not in the original. Dave is OK
-with this idea. (It's now controlled by OPTION_PLANETS and turned
-off if the game type is "plain".)
+sst.py -- Super Star Trek 2K
-Dave says the bit about the Galileo getting turned into a
-McDonald's is "consistant with our original vision". (This has been
-left permanently enabled, as it can only happen if OPTION_PLANETS
-is on.)
+SST2K is a Python translation of a C translation of a FORTRAN
+original dating back to 1973. Beautiful Python it is not, but it
+works. Translation by Eric S. Raymond; original game by David Matuszek
+and Paul Reynolds, with modifications by Don Smith, Tom Almy,
+Stas Sergeev, and Eric S. Raymond.
-Dave also says the Space Thingy should not be preserved across saved
-games, so you can't prove to others that you've seen it. He says it
-shouldn't fire back, either. It should do nothing except scream and
-disappear when hit by photon torpedos. It's OK that it may move
-when attacked, but it didn't in the original. (Whether the Thingy
-can fire back is now controlled by OPTION_THINGY and turned off if the
-game type is "plain" or "almy". The no-save behavior has been restored.)
-
-The Faerie Queen, black holes, and time warping were in the original.
-
-Here are Tom Almy's changes:
-
-In early 1997, I got the bright idea to look for references to
-"Super Star Trek" on the World Wide Web. There weren't many hits,
-but there was one that came up with 1979 Fortran sources! This
-version had a few additional features that mine didn't have,
-however mine had some feature it didn't have. So I merged its
-features that I liked. I also took a peek at the DECUS version (a
-port, less sources, to the PDP-10), and some other variations.
-
-1, Compared to the original UT version, I've changed the "help"
-command to "call" and the "terminate" command to "quit" to better
-match user expectations. The DECUS version apparently made those
-changes as well as changing "freeze" to "save". However I like
-"freeze". (Both "freeze" and "save" work in SST2K.)
-
-2. The experimental deathray originally had only a 5% chance of
-success, but could be used repeatedly. I guess after a couple
-years of use, it was less "experimental" because the 1979
-version had a 70% success rate. However it was prone to breaking
-after use. I upgraded the deathray, but kept the original set of
-failure modes (great humor!). (Now controlled by OPTION_DEATHRAY
-and turned off if game type is "plain".)
-
-3. The 1979 version also mentions srscan and lrscan working when
-docked (using the starbase's scanners), so I made some changes here
-to do this (and indicating that fact to the player), and then realized
-the base would have a subspace radio as well -- doing a Chart when docked
-updates the star chart, and all radio reports will be heard. The Dock
-command will also give a report if a base is under attack.
-
-4. Tholian Web from the 1979 version. (Now controlled by
-OPTION_THOLIAN and turned off if game type is "plain".)
-
-5. Enemies can ram the Enterprise. (Now controlled by OPTION_RAMMING
-and turned off if game type is "plain".)
-
-6. Regular Klingons and Romulans can move in Expert and Emeritus games.
-This code could use improvement. (Now controlled by OPTION_MVBADDY
-and turned off if game type is "plain".)
-
-7. The deep-space probe feature from the DECUS version. (Now controlled
-by OPTION_PROBE and turned off if game type is "plain").
-
-8. 'emexit' command from the 1979 version.
-
-9. Bugfix: Klingon commander movements are no longer reported if long-range
-sensors are damaged.
-
-10. Bugfix: Better base positioning at startup (more spread out).
-That made sense to add because most people abort games with
-bad base placement.
-
-In June 2002, I fixed two known bugs and a documentation typo.
-In June 2004 I fixed a number of bugs involving: 1) parsing invalid
-numbers, 2) manual phasers when SR scan is damaged and commander is
-present, 3) time warping into the future, 4) hang when moving
-klingons in crowded quadrants. (These fixes are in SST2K.)
-
-Here are Stas Sergeev's changes:
-
-1. The Space Thingy can be shoved, if you ram it, and can fire back if
-fired upon. (Now controlled by OPTION_THINGY and turned off if game
-type is "plain" or "almy".)
-
-2. When you are docked, base covers you with an almost invincible shield.
-(A commander can still ram you, or a Romulan can destroy the base,
-or a SCom can even succeed with direct attack IIRC, but this rarely
-happens.) (Now controlled by OPTION_BASE and turned off if game
-type is "plain" or "almy".)
-
-3. Ramming a black hole is no longer instant death. There is a
-chance you might get timewarped instead. (Now controlled by
-OPTION_BLKHOLE and turned off if game type is "plain" or "almy".)
-
-4. The Tholian can be hit with phasers.
-
-5. SCom can't escape from you if no more enemies remain
-(without this, chasing SCom can take an eternity).
-
-6. Probe target you enter is now the destination quadrant. Before I don't
-remember what it was, but it was something I had difficulty using.
-
-7. Secret password is now autogenerated.
-
-8. "Plaque" is adjusted for A4 paper :-)
-
-9. Phasers now tells you how much energy needed, but only if the computer
-is alive.
-
-10. Planets are auto-scanned when you enter the quadrant.
-
-11. Mining or using crystals in presense of enemy now yields an attack.
-There are other minor adjustments to what yields an attack
-and what does not.
-
-12. "freeze" command reverts to "save", most people will understand this
-better anyway. (SST2K recognizes both.)
-
-13. Screen-oriented interface, with sensor scans always up. (SST2K
-supports both screen-oriented and TTY modes.)
-
-Eric Raymond's changes:
-
-Mainly, I translated this C code out of FORTRAN into C -- created #defines
-for a lot of magic numbers and refactored the heck out of it.
-
-1. "sos" and "call" becomes "mayday", "freeze" and "save" are both good.
-
-2. Status report now indicates when dilithium crystals are on board.
-
-3. Per Dave Matuszek's remarks, Thingy state is never saved across games.
-
-4. Added game option selection so you can play a close (but not bug-for-
-bug identical) approximation of older versions.
-
-5. Half the quadrants now have inhabited planets, from which one
-cannot mine dilithium (there will still be the same additional number
-of dilithium-bearing planets). Torpedoing an inhabited world is *bad*.
-There is BSD-Trek-like logic for Klingons to attack and enslave
-inhabited worlds, producing more ships (only is skill is 'good' or
-better). (Controlled by OPTION_WORLDS and turned off if game
-type is "plain" or "almy".)
-
-6. User input is now logged so we can do regression testing.
-
-7. More BSD-Trek features: You can now lose if your entire crew
-dies in battle. When abandoning ship in a game with inhabited
-worlds enabled, they must have one in the quadrant to beam down
-to; otherwise they die in space and this counts heavily against
-your score. Docking at a starbase replenishes your crew.
-
-8. Still more BSD-Trek: we now have a weighted damage table.
-Also, the nav subsystem (enabling automatic course
-setting) can be damaged separately from the main computer (which
-handles weapons targeting, ETA calculation, and self-destruct).
-
-After these features were added, I translated this into Python and added
-more:
-
-9. A long-range scan is done silently whenever you call CHART; thus
-the LRSCAN command is no longer needed. (Controlled by OPTION_AUTOSCAN
-and turned off if game type is "plain" or "almy".)
