+# 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
+- Starfield clusters, shader instead of an array?
+- Collider groups for factions? (projectile optimization)
+
+## 🌟 Player selection
+- Planet name, ring, and distance
+- Selection UI (around game object)
+- Selection UI (radar arrow)
+- Selection keys
+- Select ships
+  - Selection UI (HUD)
+  - attack selected ship, even if friendly
+
+## 🌟 Planet outfitter
+- UI, show ship on land
+- Money
+- Display name != key
+- then: non-removable outfits
+- then: cargo space
+  - then: collectible flotsam
+  - then: mass from cargo and outfits
+  - then: space conversion
+    - then: heat + energy stats
+      - then: damage type (heat, energy, disrupt, etc)
+      - then: debuffs
+- then: assign guns to points
+- then: guns with consumable ammunition
+  - then: enable/disable weapons
+
+
+## Ship Spawning
+- requires: Basic ship AI (disable collision for now?)
+- requires: Fleets
+- Spawn ships from planets
+- Land ships on planets (destroy)
+- Start with player on planet, respawn
+
+
+## Debris (requires: flotsam)
+- Destroyed ships leave debris
+- Destructible & floatingdebris
+- Orbiting debris: asteroids
+- ES-style asteroid field (how should we do this?)
+
+
+## Camera physics
+- lookahead
+- damping
+- Don't jump when landing/taking off
+- wobble / ship thrown when hit?
+- UI/effects when damaged?
+- Focus important objects
+
+## Sprite reels
+- Sprite reels in content
+- Trigger sprite reel during collapse sequence
+- Trigger sprite reel when firing (requires: non-removable outfits)
+- then: ship tint
+- then: frame timing randomness
+- then: leaks during collapse (needs particle physics)
+- then: passive engine glow, ease in/out
+- Sprite color variation
+
+## Texture loading
+- loading screen & menu
+- GPU limits?
+- Cache direcory
+- How to pack?
+
+## Particle physics
+- Particles should stick to their ships. How?
+- Particle compute shader
+- Land and unland particles
+- Effect on fire gun
+- Particle / sprite color variation
+
+## Sound effects
+- Sound effects
+- User-configurable music (?, game config or user config?)
+
+
 ## Specific Jobs
- - Fix angles (point, land)
+ - Correct depth order
  - Land from farther away
- - Take off
  - Prevent collisions on unlanding
  - UI: text arranger
    - loading screen, menus
