Python programs for making a galaxy

[Knapp]

These are both weak beta programs but they should both run without
errors and are commented well, I hope.
Panda3d is needed by Torus
Panda3d, pylab and psycopg2 are needed by Solar Creations. You can
turn off the bits that need lab and psycopg2 but not panda3d, if you
can program python.

Solar Creations is based on the attached worldgen.pdf and a bit of my
own research.

Torus was a shape that I picked because it forces the most paths and
the longest paths from star A to star B thus making for more traffic
and a more interesting game area. To explain it just look at some of
the nebula that exist and think of something bigger and older. The
really hard bit is explaining how humans got there. This is something
I was thinking that that lost space ship could help explained.

Todo with these programs:
Make Turus dump the data into a database
Make Solar Creations dump into same database one for each turus
location. Also finish it. I have only implemented part of worldgen,
there is a lot more to do for the planets descriptions.
For both it might be nice to add a gui and also for solar creations
some way to edit each system with a live update as the random numbers
are changed to see how it changes the system.
A method to save the random numbers generated with Solar Creations so
that some retro editing can be done.
