FT nation mapping project?

I'm going to be honest for my reason of doing this: My new robot, the Collector, goes around collecting scraps floating around space and I want a map to keep track of where it is. But this will benefit everyone if we make this. So, for all of you who are in the Milky Way (Nations in other galaxies will not be mapped). I remember Gaian Ascendancy had a map of the galaxy that looked really cool that you showed me for Planets I. If you wished ot be mapped, please post here and I can arrange for you to be put on the map.

The names of the actual stars and if they have planets around them doesn't really matter.

On the list:
Earth
Green Sun
Ardessia
Chronosia
Tannenmille
Arizona Nova
Solar Collective
The Tau Splinters
Azaha
Dying Camels
Trekys
HyperspatialTravel
Parlim
Tsaerin
New Grunz
Koprulu Colonies
Chronosia

Sounds like fun :D
Ardessia
30-07-2005, 03:09
I would like to be on that map.
Green Sun
30-07-2005, 03:13
I'll contact the FTU and see if the members there want to be added.
Chronosia

Me! ME! MEEEEE!

I didn't know you were in the Milky Way. Hm. Whatever, you're added.

I already have a rough map of the Triune Systems and their relation to the Milky Way / Sol:

MI #493-432-401 is a Military Installation of mine, I haven't done much with it yet. I know a whole arm like that being a military installation for one nation is overkill, but using the base image I had, there wasn't a detailed image of the Perseus arm to get a better location for it.
Green Sun
30-07-2005, 03:41
I was hoping for something more closer and detailed to Sol.
Tannenmille
30-07-2005, 03:45
Oh. Well, since Sol was full I decided to create the Triune Systems, and put them close to Sol but not in the same arm, thus the map I posted above.
Arizona Nova
30-07-2005, 03:45
Could I be included?

Milky Way, Perseus Arm, M103 Star Cluster.

A map for reference:

Much better. I can edit this for my uses.

Me! Based on the map that I made for the now-berift Planets I.
Green Sun
30-07-2005, 03:58
There we go. The first map is finished. I put Chronosia and Concordiat a bit farther apart because they're kinda powerful. Yeah.

Wha? C'mon dude, I gave you the map and you don't even put me on it? :P

Oh, I thought you were Tannemille! Sorry! I'll add you!

Updated map with Arizona Nova in it. Sorry, man, I thoughht it was Tannanmille posting since he posted the first map.
The Solar Collective
30-07-2005, 04:18
Could you possibly add a little nation like The Solar Collective. I just joined as a FT Puppet of Novikov - not that you've ever heard of me - and I want a location to reference when I begin to RP. Anywhere on the map is fine, but preferably close to a few other nations.
Dying Camels
30-07-2005, 04:26
Dying Camels is based in the midst of the Norma Arm, spread out between several systems. Many thanks for your efforts.

The Tau splinters
30-07-2005, 04:27
Yo, could you please add The Tau splinters, and Azaha? As I am Azaha and this is my puppet.

If you could, coudl you put Azaha kind of isolated, and The Tau splinters right at the border of Chronosia?(RP reasons)
Green Sun
30-07-2005, 04:31
Please, no puppets, I don't want the map filled up with puppets. Ecept for puppets used for FT RPing for MT nations.
The Tau splinters
30-07-2005, 04:33
No no, it may be a puppet, but it's a nation I plan to use extensivly, it's more of a secondary main then a puppet.
Green Sun
30-07-2005, 04:34
Hmm. I'm not sure, but since I don't want to piss off Chrono, I'll make an exception.
Arizona Nova
30-07-2005, 04:36
Hrm... thanks for including me, but I'm not quite in *that* area. M103 is in the Casseiopia constellation, which is ensconced in the Perseus arm... here is a pic I found of it in relation to the sun - small, but this stuff is hard to find.
http://www.glyphweb.com/esky/_images/galactic/cassiopeia.gif
Though I get the feeling you're about to be deluged with "Add me" requests. ;)
The Solar Collective
30-07-2005, 04:38
Perhaps puppet was the wrong word. Novikov, being an MT nation with no dealings in FT, has no connection to The Solar Collective other than the fact that I control both of them. With Novikov going inactive for the next couple weeks - my main RP partner is in Jersey, away from computers for the next two months - I decided to start up a FT Nation to pass the time, thus The Solar Collective was born.

Seriously, I hate to beg, but I really would like to be added for the reasons mentioned in my last post. I want this nation to suceed in the FT world, and will be giving it my undivided attention for the next few months. Please accomidate me.

Hey, it's hard enough to fit them all on the map without crossing them over. If you're not quite where you wanted to be, I'm doing the best I can.

There, I moved Arizona Nova and added a few more nations.

I'd liked to be mapped, i know you may not want this but i'm located in Rigel System (i saw it on a map once, its close to Sol, prolly 100 Ly's from it i tihnk)

Thanks. I thought I was posting the link to the updated map, but it posted that. Since it was cool, I decided to leave the link as a joke^^

If you could put a single planet somewhere on the outskirts of the map, I'd be much obliged.
Parlim

Slap me on there, would you? Preferably on the other (less populated) side of the galaxy, if you please.

:D

I've been thinking of doing FT stuff (although I just started). Can I be in? Preferably somewhere around Cygnus? But anywhere would work...

My nation inhabits a nebula near the Zero on the map. It would be much appreciated if I were put there

I downloaded the ROM of Zero Wing and got really far on it. Man I love AYBABTU, and now that the fad has died down it's better because it's not quoted on every site anymore.

Move zig for great justice
Koprulu Colonies
31-07-2005, 05:11
Sure put me on there.

Koprulu Colonies, or rather I, would like to placed on the edge of the map. You see that line just below 90 degrees thing? Place it there on the edge. Please.
Tannenmille
31-07-2005, 05:20
The original (?) two AYBABTU videos:

http://www.planettribes.com/allyourbase/AYB2.swf

http://www.planetstarsiege.com/allyourbase/ayb4.swf

I really like how Mechanic says "Somebody set up us the bomb" in the second one.

But here's a cool idea: A nation using Zero Wing tech. Hell, I'm going to write up a storefront here in a bit for the idea, somebody might just buy some Zig.

It's starting to get crowded... which is real cool.

Now if you can get all the other FT nations to ask to be put on there, and make it the official map, we are set.
Green Sun
31-07-2005, 05:43
I intend for that to happen.

A noble idea. Course our existence in the Milky Way Galaxy ended many NS years ago, but still this is an applauded effort.

The transmission froma peoples in anotehr galaxy has made a large buzz in the science communities. Is it really that easy to travel outside of the galaxy? Or could these be higher forms of life? Could they be the true 'God' we have searched for throughout the duration of Mankind's lifetimes? Many people in Green Sun think so and are beggining to start cults and churches dedicated to these beings that have such immense technology they can travel outside of our galaxy.
((Happy now?))
Gaian Ascendancy

((OC- Actually you're pretty darn accurate in rp terms. Fold Jumping and HPG-Comm capabilities for us are very effective, though we employed a 'large' series of HPG-repeater Deep Void stations to conduct messages across the hundreds of millions of light-years between my Supercluster and the Milky Way Core Galaxy.

It's all just a matter of scale to get used to for us. =^^= ))

also dose anyway have a general guide to some of the Future tech ships used by various people on the map, I plan on designing my own ships and would like some bench marks.
