In Response To: Re: Aleph Null game engine name (fracai)

: Aleph originally comes from the size of sets of numbers and in terms of game
: engines, Aleph Null would refer to the original Marathon engine.

: If your advanced engine is built on the original Bungie source or the
: community Aleph One source, you might pick Aleph Two.

: Personally, I think I'd pick something more distinctive. "Omega"
: might be too… finite, but you could always dive into heavy math theory and
: look for a concept that implies "complicated" and
: "next". Or, cardinality and the Aleph notation were defined by
: Georg Cantor, so maybe something derived from Cantor? Or, the concept of
: Continuum Hypothesis? Now I'm just pulling terms from Wikipedia.

: Just my thoughts.

Continuum engine is taken.

I'll call it Aleph Two if it is based more on Aleph One.

I have a design that's based more on Aleph One, but I don't understand Aleph One completely.

Aleph Two would be if Aleph One used mathematical planes clipping polygon portals to find visibility of a polyhedron.
