Now it's easy to add your content thx to new [modular architecture](obsidian://open?vault=LunCo%20Docs&file=LunCo%20architecture)\n2. Start developing in minutes! Just [clone the repo](https://github.com/LunCoSim/lunco-sim#installation) *(no more custom [package manager](https://github.com/LunCoSim/godot-package-manager))*\n3. Updated to Godot 4, as it was finally released on March 1, 2023\n4. Implemented [multiplayer](https://youtu.be/hxd3Y432irQ)\n\n## About\n\nLunCo is a single entry point with a nice UX into a rabithole of space engineering, fully open.\n\nCheck our [Youtube](https://www.youtube.com/@LunCoSim).  There (hopefully) should be an explanation video, launched right before the round.\n\n### Key Ideas\n\n* Save engineers time with great UX\n* Global database of engineering solutions\n* Opensource, relies on open space standards\n* Reuse existing code for simulations, models, etc\n* Integration with professional SW like Solidworks, Ansys, etc.\n* A playground for Space Engineering AI\n\n### Sample applications\n\n- Design solar power station in space \n- Assess impact of solar panels\n- Plan satellite constellations \n- Visualise robotic transportation system\n- Monitor remote agricultire robots\n- Model Closed Loop Biological Life Support Systems\n- Build custom submodules for ERP, supply chain, CRM, etc\n\n### Roadmap / next steps\n\n1. Implement crucial PM tools: Kanban board, Infinite Whiteboard\n2. User generated content distribution via IPFS\n3. ReqIf - based requirements management\n4. Basic models:\n\t1. Solar power generation\n\t2. Electricity consumption\n\t3. Air quality\n\t4. Thermal balance of a building\n\t5. Basic connectivity modeling\n\t6. Basic orbital mechanics (mostly to identify Sun position above the horizont at any given time)\n\n# Contacts\n\n1. [Site](https://lunco.space)\n2.
