Who: Fox and anyone
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: Probably none unless there's a meeting that shows up
When: Probably like two weeks ago but w/e w/e

I have been working on a small program for anyone who has trouble keeping on-task in any measure, or for those who would like some kind of reward for doing their tasks. It's still pretty basic in use, but I can expand it better via suggestions than on my own.

The most basic overview is it's a standard RPG - you complete tasks to earn money and EXP, plus get random rewards now and then. You'll lose HP whenever you fail to complete a daily task. The better your equipment, and the higher your level, the more rewards you get for completing tasks. If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

[So what Fox has made is basically a comm-version of Habitica, formerly HabitRPG. It's gonna be super basic right now - the flow of it will be the same as it looks on Habitica - here's a screencap if you don't want to log in/sign up - though there is no party battling or inn at this time! Any other questions, feel free to pp/pm or just ask ICly 'v']

[The feed doesn't start out terribly clearly, and it appears the communicator has been all but abandoned on the edge of a table, its only point to record... something. The blank white walls of a bedroom feature first, of course, and there's a voice that rises some few seconds later. Those with particularly sharp ears might hear the shift of a hand, or the faintest sound of what almost sounds like keys being tapped.

The voice itself is odd, androgynous almost to a fault and not quite... natural. Its inflections are close to the real thing, but if you listen closely, you can tell that many of the words are made up of pre-recorded sounds, rather than being stated aloud. Anyone from the Heron will likely recognise the 'voice' of their quietest member, the peculiar, pale-skinned man with a shifty stance and a very, very weak constitution.]

I have been working, for some time, on a number of programs. I've seen what is available here, and much of it - while a fun waste of time - doesn't suit my personal whims. As a result, I have several projects and have decided to ask for my shipmates' opinions on which ones to finish first.

To keep this short, I won't go through all of them - but what sort of functions would provide you with some sort of ease, living here? Something to help with measurements, time, ratios - anything, really.

[As he speaks, there are screens - that's the best descriptor for them, really - that pop up in the view of the communicator. They're shaped almost like bubbles, and they float similarly - but a pale-skinned hand reaches forward once to adjust the size of one, so they're not quite so flimsy. The adjusted one shows a number of designs on its screen, some that look like clocks, others that look like measuring spoons, still more that have designs that are difficult to pinpoint from their view.]

I don't have the materials I'm used to having, but even so, this is a challenge I find comfortable.
