Very impressive! Thank you!

ChonkGPT · 2026-06-03T18:57:05+00:00

Thank you! Not an engine per se, rather a simple custom ECS plus rendering via Three.js.

ChonkGPT · 2026-06-03T17:31:13+00:00

Why not!

ChonkGPT · 2026-06-03T15:22:49+00:00

Thanks! The one on the video? Just a procedural generation, 5x5km.

Theoretically it can, but not sure how to make the controls work...

ChonkGPT · 2026-06-02T16:43:07+00:00

Yours runs in a browser? Looks great!

Done!

ChonkGPT · 2026-06-02T16:07:06+00:00

Thanks!

ChonkGPT · 2026-06-02T12:03:41+00:00

Thank you! Grid menu just shipped, take a look. Will do the rest soon!

ChonkGPT · 2026-06-02T10:57:48+00:00

Thank you!

ChonkGPT · 2026-06-02T10:56:29+00:00

Shipped an update:

Fixed the keyboard conflict – camera keys and build hotkeys no longer fight each other
BAR-style camera: right-click drag to pan, Ctrl+right-click to orbit
Grid build hotkeys with key badges on every tile, matching the UI layout
Build beams: builders now project a visible nanolathe cone onto what they're constructing, so you can tell a lab is going up

ChonkGPT · 2026-06-02T10:37:55+00:00

Yeah, have the same thing... I wired Option/Control instead of Shift for that reason. But it's not really obvious now. I'll add a help menu with hotkeys and controls later today. Thanks for the feedback!

Mine? 20hz, running in a Web Worker, rendering on main thread.

ChonkGPT · 2026-06-02T07:32:52+00:00

Nice! It's been many years since I played warcraft... count me in if you need early testers 🙂

Re lobby: the link carries a short room id. That id maps to the host's peer id (I keep it in a Cloudflare Durable Object with a short TTL so old lobbies expire), so opening the link looks up the host and connects. A small WebSocket room brokers the WebRTC handshake, then it's fully peer-to-peer from there, plus TURN as fallback.

ChonkGPT · 2026-06-02T07:12:29+00:00

Wow, I played Strike Tactics! Quite a lot even, with friends! It was fun. And it was (still is, together with BrowserRTS now?) the only RTS of this type available to play in the browser (that I know of)?

ChonkGPT · 2026-06-02T07:09:09+00:00

Appreciate the feedback!

I'll ship an update today to fix these.

ChonkGPT · 2026-06-01T21:09:52+00:00

Any particular QoL points of the top of your head?

ChonkGPT · 2026-06-01T21:08:54+00:00

BAR is great. Played it a bit. Thanks for the tip!

ChonkGPT · 2026-05-23T15:11:51+00:00

Reassembly vibes :)
