To give in to my narcissistic streak, I'm posting the next step here:
To do:
Lots of improvements and bug fixes of the engine.
What's up?
Automatic "unlimited" procedural world/area creation.
Isometric/ 2.5 D representation
What else to do?
Game/World Idea.....

You also have to give in to public interest
I might not be responding to everything but just like others I like your projects and think you are doing good by sharing information about these.
I'm sure you know it already, but you can also reduce the impact on RAM when you use pseudo-random numbers and noise-functions for world creation. You just have to find a way to pre-determine the seed values for a given position, and/or to combine seed values. This way you can forget or store remote parts that are not needed anymore and rebuild them with predetermined pseudo-random values when needed & fill with the stored objects.

The maps consume about 200KByte , gfx and sound can be streamed. So the overall RAM consumption is about 200MB. Today RAM is not the problem. It's how to create (automatically) a playable world, with attractive gameplay.

Statusupdate

Prototype
engine extension
Procedural World Creation:
With this, complete worlds, such as basic worlds, which serve as the basis for complex adventures, can be created automatically.
Not only "individual" objects are supported, but complete areas, which are predefined in WorldCreator (c) Deutschmann, so that complex, high-quality environments can be created.
The basic framework is created when you start a new world.
The final creation of the world occurs in real time as it is explored.
