Not the author here, just thought this was cool. My dream is to find a fully 3d realized model of the Enterprise, with working comm and internal computer systems that my friends and I can all pile into and adventure around the universe. At least with this I can run around and figure out where all those mysterious bathrooms are.

I've had this dream for a long time, too. A while ago I built a little text-based MUD kind of thing for this: http://deepship.com/ where you can have multiple people all controlling a ship in a little universe. There's not much gameplay and I've gotten a lot better at programming since this was made, so I'd still like to build out this kind of idea one day.

With a small transporter you don't need toilets anymore.

How do I get to Engineering?

looks like there will be a way by going to the battle bridge, but there's a locked door with passages behind it, probably still under costruction; check back later.

Right, I personally can't get past the foyer.

Looks good, can you offer more info about what engine you're using etc? Also, is there a point or just wander around and admire the ride?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems like it's a Flash engine, which means it's likely custom rather than a game 'engine', so to speak.
