Pause the game server module when opening the menu in single player.
Add an option for a server admin to pause the game in multi player.

FS#111: Plasma cannon sound

Stijn Buys — Sat, 18 Jul 2020 16:49:20 +0000

Plasma cannons need a fire sound.
Some kind of heavy whoosh. Think fireball launcher.

FS#110: Better camera handling and control

Stijn Buys — Sat, 18 Jul 2020 16:36:28 +0000

The camera handling is rather confusing. It would be best to retire the third-person "Turret" view and have a cockpit view and an external, third-person view.

Freelook should still work on both modes, but the camera angle should not be reset when leaving freelook.

TODO

remove Turret view
use shift+mousewheel to zoom in/out
remember freelook angle
remove 360-degree rotation limitation
remove control lock (spacebar)
do not pass ship control events when in a menu

FS#109: Button Tooltips

Stijn Buys — Thu, 28 Jul 2016 19:40:02 +0000

The ui::IconButton class needs to support tooltips.

It might be a good idea to implement this at the Widget level,
and display it for any widget whenever a tooltip text is set.

FS#108: Model: pirate base

Stijn Buys — Mon, 18 Nov 2013 22:24:16 +0000

Pirate base models, to serve as NPC headquarters.
Several generic models are required.

FS#107: Moving selection fails unless active entity is clicked

Stijn Buys — Mon, 18 Nov 2013 22:11:26 +0000

If you box-select a number of entities, and you want to move them, you have to drag the active selected entity.
CLicking any other selected (highlighted) entity will deselect the other members in the selection.

Dragging any member of the selection should work.

FS#106: HUD camera mode button

Stijn Buys — Mon, 18 Nov 2013 22:04:19 +0000

The HUD lacks an iconbutton to change and indicate the current camera mode.

TODO

- Add an iconbutton to the hud, change the icon depending on the current camera mode
- Add three camera icons to icons.svg:
track (aka third person)
cockpit (aka first person)
free (aka turret view)

FS#105: Admin commands

Stijn Buys — Mon, 18 Nov 2013 21:58:21 +0000

Implement administrative commands. Players should be able to receive
and 'admin level' enabling them to execute special administrative commands.
Those commands should still be available to the console.

The admin level is unrelated to the in-game player level.

TODO
- Implement a core::Player admin level property
- Implement admin command functions (core::Func)
- Implement admin.ini to define admin levels and the commands they have access to
- Add admin commands to handle player admin levels
- Turn existing core administrative commands (kick, mute, ...) into admin commands
- Change existing cheats (give, goto, ..) into admin commands,
have them take a player name as argument (e.g. give ingar credits 1000)
- Combine the 'jump' and 'goto' cheats into a 'teleport' command,
make it work while docked, support teleporting players accross zones
- Add 'nudge' admin command.

FS#104: Improved inventory menu.

Stijn Buys — Sun, 17 Nov 2013 19:48:20 +0000

The current inventory menu is too confusing.

TODO
- tabs for cargo/weapon/equipment
- show weapon slots
- show mounted weapons inside their slots,
mounting/unmounting a weapon moves it back and forth
between slot and inventory

FS#103: Gunmen

Stijn Buys — Tue, 12 Mar 2013 19:43:19 +0000

Allow a player to control (some) weapons on another player's ship,
making him a gunman

The details of this idea still need to be worked out.
