Running Bug List

This is a running bug list.

General Bugs

1. (Mac) Cursor disappears when pressing <ESC> in a game to access the menus. Possible SDL2 problem? seems to happen when alt-tab away first on 10.6
2. Fix twoplayer.bat
3. Fix music (remove in lobby, add variety to in-game)
4. Level changer scoreboard mark '+' isn't always shown with several clients? When admin use "/setlevpass" the '+' status doesn't update.
5. Seeker sound effects?
6. Put this in the bot documentation: logprint(debug.traceback()) prints stack trace See http://bitfighter.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=14&view=unread&sid=294322f71fe40d0344d26186b94317a6#unread
7. /idle command timer is wholly client-side - open to hack
8. Seeker client-side prediction isn't so great (will go through forcefields, while burst doesn't)
9. Joining a game already running won't show your badges in the scoreboard until next level
10. Client-side prediction problems with TestItem (MoveItem?). Duplicate by hosting a level with a TestItem and pushing it around, you'll see the TestItem jump around like it had lag. Happens with resources and soccer balls, too.. Also increasing lag (with /lag ), you can see that client-side doesn't predict collisions with MoveItems really well..
11. When soccer ball is just a tiny bit on the top of the screen (i.e. mostly off screen), it appears to flicker (scope issue?)
12. Teleporter scope wrong -- they disappear when center is off screen (wat will fix)
13. Add red-box warning about messed up joystick profile (button misspellings)
14. master JSON sometimes doesn't show an authenticated user is authenticated (and thus no underline in the 'currently playing' list)
15. Edit level with forcefield in it; edit a different level with no ff; test the level; behold the ff!
16. Select two walls in editor, hit [-]... crash!
17. Linux and Mac packages need to include new music. Windows has been taken care of.

Things that really should be done

1. Master writeConnectRequest() should send gameType as a stringTableEntry rather than a straight string. Easy change, but will break compatibility with the master unless we're clever.

ideas

1. A /nextmap feature to determine what the next map will be would be quite helpful
2. Currently, Bitfighter prevents players from switching teams multiple times... instead, I think Bitfighter should prevent any player from purposely stacking the teams. Ex. If it's 8v7, no player on the team with 7 should be allowed to switch over to the team with 8. This would also need a toggle however, otherwise it would break dungeons.
3. rotate/scale commands -- make use new quickmenus we created for plugins, also id menu (! or #)
4. Get rid of getValueForDisplayingInMenu() or of getOptionText()... seem to do similar thing in menus
5. /maplist to view the maps on the server would be nice. Make it a toggle if the server owner wants privacy
6. shield countdown timer
7. When tons of bots, remove some from scoreboard to avoid making text too small... include some note like (+ 10 more robots). Remove lower scoring ones first.
8. Add level rating system (+1/0/-1) as described in forums citation needed!
