need to run properly in sequence. Gulp is running stuff asynchronously. Other processes gets EPERM.

Use redis to share player data among instances

Designs

I'm no good at designing. Need help on creating concept art for everything.

Battle mechanism

Mechanism to warp to other systems

I'm thinking of holding a warp key then GUI appears around the ship for destination planets then when you release, you are warped to another planet.

Convert JS to typescript

Heroku deployment

Need to deploy on Heroku with automatic build. Currently, the app is built (gulp build) first and then commit.

Communication mechanism

Just some brainstorming:

1. proximity communication
2. Distress beacon
3. broadcast transmission

Refactor system map to exclude generated files from repo

Able to customize each system

The map is using Map Editor to create the whole universe.
