2. Mneme World Generator

Description: A procedural star system and world generator built as a Progressive Web App (PWA). Designed for tabletop sci-fi RPGs, it produces scientifically grounded systems using recursive logic and dice-based mechanics.

Statistics: 15+ pages | Active development, Draft 2.1 (260222)

Philosophy: Simulationist and modular: stellar formation, planetary placement, habitability, and civilisation development are each broken into separate procedural systems that feed into each other.

Key Features

Four-level hierarchy — Stars → Planets → Moons → Surface detail and artificial habitats
Orbital stability — Mutual Hill Radius calculations and Rule of Five constraints
Habitability waterfall — Multi-step algorithm evaluating mass, orbital position, composition, hazards
Civilisation layer — Population, development, inequality modelling, technology level integration
