Hello all,

I've had this idea for a game in my head that would require keeping track of multiple variables over, say, a 1 week period.... So that means if I wanted to "fast forward" to Wednesday at 9:30pm, it could recall if an object was at x,y,z. Now, I know this would take up A TON of data, but with computers with 1 terabyte of Hard drive available, I figure we've reached the age where my game could be possible

What would be the best and most efficient way of doing this and in what language?

I tried doing it with QBasic, and it could record and track up to 20 objects for an indefinite amount of time, with a very very small file size, but I tried it in C++ and the file was much larger for some reason.

My ultimate goal is to implement this algorithm into a 3D setting, so that's something to consider when trying to pick a programming language. Any ideas?

This is a sort of long story, but I have to set things up for anyone reading this. A couple of months ago, Mom had to do a total hard drive reformat and reinstall. Her computer (Dell running XP Home) was just too full of spyware and other junky stuff that she couldn't get off. I was ...more
