Project summary
The Tablet of Adventure is a tool for generating and sharing location-based adventures with Maemo devices. The adventures may be manually created or follow the Geohashing "automatic adventure generator" concept as popularized by the xkcd comic (#426)
Progress
what works
- geohash algorithm
- distance between your location and destination
- osmgps map
- pointers for your location and destination location
- bearing
- selecting between adventures - added hardcoded Malmi adventure until custom adventures are supported
- a finish for a mission
what doesn't
- social features - will be done using Qaiku
- custom adventures (friend race) - adventure editor not implemented
- generate new Geohash at midnight if software is running
- generate neighboring graticules Geohashes (i.e. Helsinki and Vantaa)
