DCSSCADAsystem

The DCSSCADA system is a specialized software platform designed for real-time monitoring, control, and data acquisition in industrial environments. Developed as an extension of the Dungeon Crawler Dungeon Survival (DCSS) project, it integrates Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) functionalities with the game's simulation engine. The system is primarily used for educational purposes, allowing users to study industrial automation concepts through a simulated, interactive environment.

DCSSCADA operates by emulating industrial processes such as conveyor belts, pumps, and chemical reactors, which are controlled via a graphical user interface (GUI). Users can configure sensors, actuators, and control loops to manage these processes, mimicking real-world SCADA applications. The system supports scripting and automation, enabling users to implement custom logic for process control. It also provides data logging and visualization tools, allowing for the analysis of system performance over time.

The platform is open-source, built on the same foundation as DCSS, which means it benefits from community-driven development and continuous improvements. While not intended for commercial industrial use, DCSSCADA serves as an accessible tool for learning about SCADA systems, control theory, and automation. It is particularly useful in academic settings, where students can experiment with control algorithms and system dynamics in a risk-free, simulated environment.

The system’s flexibility allows for modifications and expansions, making it adaptable to various educational scenarios. Users can simulate different industrial scenarios, test control strategies, and observe the effects of their decisions in real time. Overall, DCSSCADA bridges the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical application in the field of industrial automation.
