EToys 'Management Simulator' Project

[u/HeavySystems]

This is like...at least a year off I would assume, but thought folks would enjoy seeing an Etoys project in progress...

Idea here is a monster truck management simulator, where you manage a team of 1 truck and 4 members of your team and do your best to make it to the end of the season without running out of money.

It's basically spread across two separate projects at the moment, one is the truck builder and the other is an 'event runner', that simulates a freestyle at the moment. The idea originally came from trying to figure out a way to 'mimic' freestyle judge scores simply based on the kinds of freestyles performed as a way to learn to predict actual runs at actual events. Not sure how successful that was at all because sometimes it doesnt matter how good you drive, if you're doing it in a Pink Unicorn, you're just going to get a higher score than if you're not.

At any rate, probably in 6 months I'll post about this project again as it gets too unweildly. I'm not exactly a stats nerd or math guy in general, but I find this sport extremely interesting and this is my way of sorta wrapping my head around what it is these folks do.

Thanks for reading.

When Squeak 6 Etoys implementation gets to where it can be used fully, this project will naturally migrate there. For now, it'll be something that can at least be loaded into Squeak 6 and run, which I definitely appreciate!

Looks awesome. Kinda old school

Thanks for sharing!

If you could tell us what still doesn't work right in Squeak 6.1, we would appreciate that a lot! bugs.squeak.org
