This is a Flutter application for managing characters in a game or story. It allows users to create, view, and edit characters with various attributes and associated markers on a map.
- Character Creation (with AI): Create new characters with details such as name, vocation, and description.
- Character Editing: Edit existing character details and levels of skills (such as health, attack, defense, etc).
- Map Integration: Plot character markers on a map and view their associated information.
- Marker Management: Add, edit, and remove markers for each character on the map.
- Marker Information: Display detailed information about each marker, including associated characters, dates, and descriptions.
- Search Location: Allows users to search for a specific location. When a location is entered into the search bar, the map navigates to that location.
- Current Location Tracker: The map updates in real-time to follow the device's movements. Additionally, users can quickly return to their current location on the map with a designated button if they have navigated to another area.
In this novel, characters sustain themselves with books and belong to distinct families/houses, each with its own unique traits. Coexisting with us, the normap people in society, they face internal conflicts and navigate their own challenges which are usually tied to their house arrangement. As I delved into the narrative, I couldn't help but wonder about the author's logical thinking behind the story. This sparked the idea of creating an application to manage each family's members and track their real-world locations. My goal was to enhance the realism and coherence of storytelling and timelines within the narrative.
