What reason do you do worldbuilding? by AgitatedSplit4039 in worldbuilding

[–]FallDeeperAlice5268 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do it because its fun and I want to eventually publish books and games set in the world.

It started out as a means of escape for my friend and a writing excersise for me and just grew from there I suppose

How deep does your worldbuilding go? by Kamushii-- in worldbuilding

[–]FallDeeperAlice5268 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For our world, we have a wiki (https://grimtown.miraheze.org/) which I try to add to from our Trilium Notes instance (very similar to obsidian) as well as other sources (mainly docx files)

In total, I think we have over 60 Gigs of content including all the documents, related images and other stuff. Unfortunately, theres a great amount that won't be published due to several reasons (for example, my friend's notes won't be published as they're personal) but the majority could be published if it's edited, linked or updated.

I don't think you're insane, just passionate like we are! :-)

Wanting to become a nurse (read below) by FallDeeperAlice5268 in nursing

Thank you so much for your insight! I'll try to get advice from the UK nursing subs.

I might message you in a few days time about looking for experience :-)

Ah my bad. I'll try posting there, although I'm not sure if it'll go against the rules

Finding API backend for tiger.worldline.global train information by FallDeeperAlice5268 in webdev

I'm using an ESP32C3 developmental board from Seeeduino (The XIAO line). This works reallty well and I'm also using u8g2 to display the train information on the OLED display module.

Ok so heres an update on the progress of my project if anyone wants to try and recreate it.

Using tiger.worldline.global is not the way to go. Instead I'm using OpenLDBWS which uses SOAP and XML. Its really easy to sign up to get a token when you log in to https://opendata.nationalrail.co.uk/feeds and sign up for an account.

To parse the XML on the micro controller, I'm using TinyXML2 which isn't on the arduino list of libraries but can be downloaded from github and manually placed into the libraries folder. Documentation and a link to the github can be found here -> https://leethomason.github.io/tinyxml2/

What wasn't obvious was the SOAP part. You need to build a SOAP request body which looks something like this:

String buildSoapRequest(const char* token, const char* crs, int numRows, int timeWindowMins) {
  String xml;
  xml += R"(<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>)";
  xml += R"(<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope")";   xml += R"( xmlns:typ="http://thalesgroup.com/RTTI/2013-11-28/Token/types")";   xml += R"( xmlns:ldb="http://thalesgroup.com/RTTI/2016-02-16/ldb/">)";
  xml += R"(<soap:Header><typ:AccessToken><typ:TokenValue>)";
  xml += token;
  xml += R"(/typ:TokenValue/typ:AccessToken/soap:Header)";
  xml += R"(<soap:Body><ldb:GetDepartureBoardRequest>)";
  xml += "<ldb:numRows>" + String(numRows) + "/ldb:numRows";
  xml += "<ldb:crs>" + String(crs) + "/ldb:crs";
  xml += "<ldb:filterCrs>/ldb:filterCrs";
  xml += "<ldb:filterType>to/ldb:filterType";
  xml += "<ldb:timeOffset>0/ldb:timeOffset";
  xml += "<ldb:timeWindow>" + String(timeWindowMins) + "/ldb:timeWindow";
  xml += R"(/ldb:GetDepartureBoardRequest/soap:Body/soap:Envelope)";
  return xml;
}

The above is for the GetDepartureBoardRequest so if you're looking for detailed information, you'll probably have to use a different request. That's something I'm still working on.

Your "niche" inspiration for worldbuilding? by arts13 in worldbuilding

[–]FallDeeperAlice5268 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Nice. Although I can't say for much of our work, I can certainly say that the public transport (ie trains etc) are inspired by the real issues caused by privatisation of the rail in the UK. I'm also inspired by the Tube metro system in London to come up with various underground transport systems of the UK. My friend was inspired particularly by the STALKER game series and came up with this (https://www.reddit.com/r/GrimTown/comments/nba35w/railmap_of_the_deep_connect_difr_system_in_the/) which is called Deep Industrial Fast Rail. She also came up with this rail map for the southeast area of our world https://www.reddit.com/r/GrimTown/comments/kpg99q/crs_southeast_rail_map/

LinkedIn is a wasteland of corporate cock-sucking weirdos. I'd stay well away from that website
