Original Summary

A few months ago I started a simulation called Chronicles. About 50 people land on the coast of an unknown continent, and nobody controls them. Each one has drives like hunger, longing, grief and wanderlust. They have traits their kids inherit, skills that improve with use, and relationships that grow into friendships, family, rivalries or marriages. They build huts, make tools, get sick, fight, have kids and die. Every so often an LLM reads what actually happened and writes a page of the chronicle, like a history book for the world. The rule is that the sim decides and the narrator only dramatizes . It can't invent events, only write up the ones that happened. This is from the opening pa Somewhere inland there are ruins of an older civilization the settlers know nothing about. Whether anyone ever finds them is up to the sim. There are magical animals that can bond the humans. If the bonding happens and the ruins are found then a war between good and evil will start The setup TypeScript sim in Docker on an old machine at home, saving a checkpoint every tick 1 world day = 6 real hours. It's been running for about 13 world years. Claude writes the chronicle pages and Gemini writes short hourly updates It costs a few dollars a month to run I'm still working out the kinks. A world with no script finds a lot of ways to do something you didn't expect, and I'm tuning it as I go. That's honestly been the most interesting part. One strong day-371 scene has "a man" who is actually a 5-year-old girl and a grown woman who is 4, and it calls a 3-year-old killed by a predator "old and difficult." Those pages will sort themselves out once my most recent childhood fix is deployed, because the narrator will be describing kids who actually act like kids. Happy to answer questions about the architecture, keeping an LLM narrator honest to the sim, or running something like this at home on basically nothing.   submitted by   /u/HeadroomDevs [link]   [comments]
