StarBase

The Traveller RPG Mapping Application

Starbase is a desktop application for generating and editing maps of regions of space for science fiction roleplaying games.

Development

StarBase is developed in the Python 2.7 programming language, and is open source software released under the GPL version 2 license. The source files and associated data files are all available on Github from the following URL:

https://github.com/simon-hibbs/StarBase

There are plans to release a Windows executable distribution of StarBase, or you can run it from source on Windows or Linux.

In order to run StarBase from source or modify the code you will need a copy of the Python programming language and several third party modules for Python. These are:

Python 2.7 Pywin32 (Windows only) PySide - Qt GUI framework bindings for Python NetworkX – a network graph library

Starbase is tested on Linux and Windows. Optionally if you wish to build the application as a Windows executable yourself, you will also need:

Py2exe
