-Todo
-----
-L: low priority
-
-[L] change lispreader to throw exceptions instead of simply assert() on
- syntax error
-[L] tux sometimes makes short jumps in the endsequence, mostly when
- going through the goal with a small jump, might be old_up related
-[L] fadein/out for intro/extro would be nice
-[L] when bumping a special with 2 blocks at once, it won't change direction
-- leveleditor crashs when pressing the button with the levelsettings
-
-
-Stuff for past milestone1:
---------------------------
-Note that this list is far from complete, but lists some bugs that we don't want
-to touch before milestone1 at the moment.
-- You shouldn't be able to stand on invisible blocks, before you bumped them
-- bombs should explode directly when hit by another bomb or a mr.iceblock
-- we only have a global counter for multiple coin blocks. This should be handled
- per block.
-- We should reduced the width of tux collision rectangle so that he falls easier
- between 1 tile wide holes.
-
-Fixed
------
-
-- leveleditor lacks enemies support (will be fixed soon by Tobias)
-- points aren't reset when gameover
-- when jumping into the exit with a star, the endgame music will change back to
- levelmusic after a short time
-- when jupming against the 2nd multiple coin block in a level only 1 coin will
- come out.
-- when you interrupted the intro (by going to credits for example) and go back
- to it, tux doesn't jump anymore
-- supertux crashs from time to time - fixed
-- mriceblock doesn't fall down when being squished in the air - fixed
-- It's not possible to duck while jumping - fixed
-- Intro/Extro textspeed is CPU dependent - fixed
-- sometimes the level restarts/you die after collecing a growup - fixed
-- mriceblock doesn't disapear after being kicked my another iceblock,
- not sure when exactly it happens, might depend on direction or so - fixed

+Notes
+~~~~~
+High priority [H]: milestone goals that should be implemented for next
+ milestone
+Medium priority [M]: would be nice to have for next milestone, but should
+ be secondary to high priority goals
+Low priority [L]: things that should be fixed sometime
+?: Things that need to be discussed to determine whether or not they should be
+ implemented
+
+
+Programming
+~~~~~~~~~~~
+--Scons--
+ * [H] Add an install target - done (however scons is creating stupid .sconsign
+ files at the install location :-/)
+ * [M] improve opengl check to work on win32 and eventually more strange
+ systems again
+ * [H] Make sure compilation on win32 and cross-compilation works
+ * [M] compile some test executables to test for SDL, SDL_mixer and SDL_image.
+ Also test for version of SDL_mixer and SDL_image
+ * [M] Create a distclean target
+ * [M] Create a dist target
+ * [M] Add instructions to the README
+ * [L] If all of the [H] and [M] issues are fixed, remove autoconf/automake
+ * [L] Take a look if it is possible to make it a bit more quiet. (Similar to
+ linux kernel, samba or jam output would be optimum, ie.
+ C++ build/linux/src/bla.o
+ C++ build/linux/src/blup.o
+ C++ build/linux/src/error.o
+ Error on line xx in error.o: This source contained an error
+
+ g++ -Wall .... -o build/linux/src/error.o src/error.cpp
+
+--Collision Detection Rewrite (all [H])--
+ * enemies:
+ - implement fish
+ - implement flyingsnowball
+ - implement wingling
+ - implement tree (really?)
+ - bring back stay on platform flag
+ ** implement ability to cary mriceblock (and other objects) around - delayed
+ for after big commit...
+ * smoke clouds are too fast
+ * rethink slopes collision feedback... tux becomes too slow when walking up
+ and starts jumping when walking down
+ * think about an attachement mechanism for moving platforms
+ * implement paths for the moving platform, implement simple moving platforms
+ * fix bullet speed/behaviour
+ * check if unducking is actually possible or if something is in the way
+ * fix flapping
+ * what to do when stuck under tiles (after using duck-sliding)
+ * do we want multi hit scores again?
+ * tux doesn't stop at igloo anymore
+ * buttjump is deactivated
+ * implement quadtree or grid to speedup collision detection
+
+--Code Refactoring/Cleanup/Optimisation--
+[H] make the title using GameSession instead of reimplementing all the stuff
+[L] rename gameloop.* files to gamesession.*
+[L] rename GameObject::action to GameObject::update()
+[L] use physfs for loading files
+[L] change physics class y-velocity-coordinate to be like all other
+ y-coordinates again (positive y to go down)
+[M] harmonize to 1 single gameloop that switches between title, worldmap,
+ ingame mode and eventually leveleditor mode
+[H] introduce a special mode in DrawingContext for objects that want to draw
+ themselfes. This could speed up rendering of tilemaps.
+[M] Make the gamelogic run in a fixed logical framerate
+
+--Miscellaneous--
+[?] think about how to implement scripting, and how to make a simple and easy to
+ use api for the scripting interface
+ (language will probably be lua - just have to figure out how well we can do
+ without OO support in the scripting language.
+ Other candidates are python, ruby and less likely java, mono/.net,
+ surely no own invention, perl or 1 of these c-like scripting languages)
+[H] Create a "sound object" that is an object or area, that can be placed on the
+ map and constantly plays a .wav file to improve game athmosphere.
+ Good examples would be a water sound which can be placed at waterfalls,
+ a kuckoo sound that can be placed into the wood, bubling sound for lava,
+ ...
+[?] Create a falling leaves particle system. (I.e. slowly falling leaves in the
+ background) along with nice leaves graphics.
+ - the problem here is that leaves don't fall of the sky and fir trees
+ don't have leaves :-/
+[H] Add a simple rock object that can be carried around
+[H] Add a rope object on which tux is able to climb, also add a ? block that
+ emits a rope when hit
+[H] redo trampolines
+[H] Buttjump related things
+ - Should kill enemies with a certain range
+ - Done--now needs to be tweaked
+ - Animation (need images)
+ - Should be a powerup item (still to be discussed)
+ - Should break bricks if Tux is on top of bricks, otherwise it should
+ kill enemies within a close range.
+ - After enemy-kill is used, powerup should be removed from Tux
+[H] Icebullet related things
+ - we should decide on specifics
+[H] Tux should fall while walking in tiles that have a space between.
+ - Possible solution: reduce Tux's width when checking collision with tiles
+[H] Graphics
+ - New forest tileset
+ - Badguy sprites
+ - Tux's buttjump animation
+[M] Save score on per-level basis to make high-score
+[M] Save time on per-level basis to make low-time-score
+[M] Add bonus score for extra time left when finishing a level
+[M] when bumping a special with 2 blocks at once, it won't change direction
+[M] tux get killed if he kicks a iceblock while at the same time bouncing on
+[L] The camera does some nasty little jumps if you jumped up on a higher place
+ where the camera didn't completely follow yet and you fall down directly
+ again. This will suddenly raise the camera up.
+[L] Allow any object to be inside of a [?] box, ie. trampoline or badguy
+ - Not sure if this would be gameplay wise.
+[L] There is a report that the joypad is always used on windows and more severe
+ it generates random up/down events, though it is callibrated correctly.
+
+Graphics
+~~~~~~~~
+
+[H] Graphics+Animations for the Yeti
+ (see also http://netpanzer.berlios.de/supertux/index.php/Yeti)
+[H] Graphics for the 5 keys in the forest world, graphics for the castle door
+ with 5 key holes
+[H] New tiles for the forest worldmap
+[H] Create a graphics to visually present reset points. (Maybe a bell that
+ starts swinging once tux touched it?)
+[M] Add graphics for ropes
+[L] Create graphics for bubbles and soap (not necessary for milestone2)
+
+-new enemies need to be designed and added
+
+Beyond Milestone2
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+- More things than just levels on the worldmap (similar to SMB3)
+- if we have a logical framerate we could record/play demos by simply storing
+ the pressed keys in each frame...
