list of finished points : RoadmapDone

Simple multiplayer

Target : just fly around together, blowing up asteroids and each other.

• (generate LOD meshes for ships)
• server : detect and handle create-listener error
• client : detect and handle connect error
• server : detect and handle client-disconnect
• enter name before join (?)
• maybe http://jamendo.com background- and mainmenu-music
• weapon icons
• with range and damage indicators
• weapon icons with recharge indicators
• gui : target lists
• tactical hud elements indicating weapon range
• powerups/health packs in asteroids ?
• design decision : newton physics or not ? not might be better for combat

Coop multiplayer

• enemies arriving in waves (herodefense)
• buying/salvaging equipment and ships between waves

Spaceship interior

• meshes and textures for indoor stuff
  • chair
  • stairs
  • lamps (wall, ceiling, floor)
  • elevator (=door + moving platform)
• save items inside ship to file (ingame save and/or mapedit save)
• shipeditor : toggle between inside/outside
• interior : align cam to outside cam on switch

General

• gui : generic list dialog (for cargo, shop, etc...)
• missions : delivery (special cargo, jettison fails mission (or not possible?), mission dialog)
• namen vor dem login
• savegames : collective property : everything in mothership, not individual players
• transfer cargo from fighters to mothership on docking
• collective money ? avoid if possible to avoid grinding, rather rewards for missions, like gather 100 iron to get weapon.
• return-to/approach mothership button for fighter/space-suit
• pickup jettison box
• missions : navpoint displayed in hud
• missions : objectives displayed in hud
• pickup jettison box content
• pirates : the whole group should counterattack if one of them is attacked (requires group system)
• auto generate doxygen for sfz and lugre (cronjob or commit hook)
• toaster name changes to floating ghost toaster if placed above a table

GUI widgets

• excel table (autosort on header click, updatable, cellrenderers, see java,gtk,cegui,qt,win32api, has scrollpane?)
• treeview (hierachies : trade categories like vegastrike ?)
• tabpane
• scrollpane
• scrollbar
• cliprect of parent also affects childs
• table layout html like, starts as hack with proper interface

Central info server

• get and display message of the day
• version check
• usernames
• host game : max player limit
• host game : description text

Interstellar travel (jump)

• load system from file
• list of all systems
• jump to other system
• limit to adjacted systems
• map displaying system positions graphically (debug:display coordinates under mouse)

Interplanetary travel (space-folding)

requires large scale systems, e.g. distances between planets in a somewhat realistic scale. this will require some form of space-folding-travel mode to remain playable, we'll keep that for later, other things are more important first.

• gui : hud : distance display, on mouse over : name, type
• larger system, spec travel
• 2d system layout (orbits, but not moving)
• gui : system map (render to texture, mousepick, click selects planet, planet has stuff orbiting, hierarchial)

Tutorial/Story

maybe a small story as intro/tutorial to game :

• deliver something to a nearby station/planet (basic controls) (problem : 1 player ?)
• targetting practice : shoot some debris/junk(Aquanox) /Astreroids/ old-junk-space-ship(EV)
• destroy some drones that have run amok (hacker,FOF-malfunction,...)
• bounty hunt : destroy some pirates , reward : jump-drive
• sientist sensor tutorial : search for right materials, reward : construction plans (weapons, shields...)
• asteroid mining tutorial
• crafting tutorial
• explore mission ? (nearby systems, some other sientist needs help, delivery..)
• capture some animals on planet, planet personal weapons tutorial

Bugs

• when you are in writing mode you cant zoom in/out only move the camera
• you can shoot yourself writing your name in select/by name and shooting.
• keyboard input does not work in fullscreen on some machines...
• bad situation in editor : click new, rightclick , problem (last block gone)
• the sun can be clicked from within the spaceship ? (check click detection for cross location stuff)
• hudmarkers (edges) and name display is totally broken (related to location system)
• changing ship and going inside should close cargo dialog
• w-a-s-d accelleration is not very intuitive, should not only add to current velocity, but also try to redirect the movement into the pressed direction
  • e.g. currently wrong : when going forward it goes right diagonally, not directly
• sun, additive blending z-sorting bug
• shipeditor culling is broken if not started with -se commandline option
• i can resize the window! but when i do it. the chat bar and the interface dont move! i should not be able to resize

Install help

These problems should be automatically detected (see also troubleshooting in INSTALL)

• check if scons is available in makefile
• scons : check ogre version (1.2 leads to LINKER errors, see sfz thread in free gamer forum)
• scons : dpkg info for ogre version? 1.4.0 or later
• scons : check lua version, 5.1 leads to errors
• scons : plugins_linux.cfg : "locate libOgreMain | grep .so" folder + OGRE/ for plugins
• scons  : detect fmod or openal automatically
• scons  : openal esd trick/warning if alsa
• scons  : /etc/ld.so.conf : add a line with "/usr/local/lib" (where ogre is) and run /sbin/ldconfig
• scons  : check all libs, vorbisfile, with pkg ? etc..
• check runtime shared object files : libfmodex.so libOgreMain.so
