Game Master

I've realized we haven't mentioned one more "position" that we use in the TSN RP sessions: the Game Master.

Have you thought about adding it to UNION? Playing in a pre-written mission is different than playing with a live GM who can respond to the situations created by the players.

The GM should have possibilities of spawning ships (enemy or friendly), executing scripts, etc.

Yeah we'll absolutely work on a GM console at a later stage. When exactly I am not sure, but probably during beta.

It will definitely have the ability to spawn/remove entities (ships, stations, environmental objects etc.) and trigger scripts.

I'd say we'll have it as an open source application, which connects to the server as a client (using a GM password which the host sets). That way the community can add features to it, or create their own customised version.
