I have uploaded what I believe to be a production-level version of the Rimworlds enrollment application. Its purpose is to allow a new player to design his first ship and equip it with everything necessary to give orders in the main program. The app is totally live, except for the final "launch" button which is not enabled, but would save the ship to the database and transfer the player to the log-in screen of the main app so he could file turn one. (He doesn't have to and can simply look around, check his inventory, etc.)
You are perfectly welcome to head off to http://starflight.rimworlds.net/ without doing any backgrounding but you might want to check out the overview of the game I posted here, and the the gameplay page of Rimworlds.info In designing the app, I assumed that the player would have been made familiar enough with the basic concepts from reading the wiki that the help pages would simply remind them of what they should keep in mind as they built their ship, not re-explain the basic concepts.
I would appreciate feedback from anyone who is willing to take the time to test the application. (It shouldn't take more than ten minutes, start to finish.) If you encounter a problem, 'twould help if you remembered the details so I could attempt to recreate it.
Thanks, and Good Gaming!
