# Specific projects
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Currently working on:
|
||||||
|
- player selection
|
||||||
|
- planet outfitter
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Small jobs
|
||||||
|
- Procedural suns
|
||||||
|
- 🌟 Back arrow -> reverse
|
||||||
|
- No wobble for ai ships & autopilot
|
||||||
|
- 🌟 User-configurable outfit space types
|
||||||
|
- 🌟 Sticky radar
|
||||||
|
- Configurable radar
|
||||||
|
- 🌟 Ship damage events, unify spawners
|
||||||
|
- Better landing animation (slow down)
|
||||||
|
- Land from farther away
|
||||||
|
- Ship collapse: damage + force events
|
||||||
|
- Redesign UI elements
|
||||||
|
- Background haze: 3d perlin?
|
||||||
|
- nova dust parallax
|
||||||
|
- Motion blur
|
||||||
|
- 🌟 Generate outlines and colliders
|
||||||
|
- Then: outline self in status
|
||||||
|
- Reverse engines + flares
|
||||||
|
- Turn flares (physics by location?)
|
||||||
|
- Angled engines & guns
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Misc fixes & Optimizations
|
||||||
|
- 🌟 Better errors when content/asset dirs don't exist
|
||||||
|
- Clear `// TODO:` comments
|
||||||
|
- Correct drawing order (player on top, landing ships)
|
||||||
|
- Faster handles (better than a hashmap?)
|
||||||
|
- Check for handle leaks
|
||||||
|
- 🌟 Log/warning system
|
||||||
|
- Clean up & faster frame timings
|
||||||
|
- 🌟 Handle lost focus

||||||
|
- User config file
|
||||||
|
- 🌟 Document content
|
||||||
|
- 🌟 Clean up content: one ship per file, autodetect
|
||||||
|
- CLI: pack sprites(?), check content, content location, logs, etc
|
||||||
|
- Better WGSL preprocessor?
|
||||||
|
- Projectile performance
|
||||||
|
