If you want to help the SuperTuxKart - Project, please contact us on the email list: supertuxkart-devel@lists.sourceforge.net Thanks in advance! The SuperTuxKart-Team ******************************** ******************************** ** ** ** Incomplete(!!) TODO List ** ** ** ******************************** ******************************** Things that would be nice to fix, but are not urgent ===================================================== - Write some documentation. - Display skid marks again (currently disabled due to problems of skid marks being 'in the air'). - Added settings menu (e.g. for MPH vs KPH (vs. KM/H), ...) - Add a tutorial course - Valgrind for memory bugs. - Update the web page, make more screen shots, ... - Tight/wide corner steering for AI. The AI is hitting the wall in very tight corners (e.g. subseatrack) [coz] long term ========= - Add network multiplayer - Make full use of OpenAL - Performance tuning - Support for multi-core CPUs (while this is not strictly necessary, it might be a nice headline for news entries. The physics/collision detection would be easy to parallelise) - More gadgets - Positive: - squirt oil on track to make karts slip, ... - Negative: - 'dirt on windscreen' - partial blackout of screen - More flexibility for items. E.g. - Tracks might hard code some items, change the distribution of some others (e.g. only a rocket at a certain location, but random choice which one the kart gets. Instead of just specifying GREENHERRING, one could write: ZIPPER:ANVIL and one of the listed things would be picked randomly) - Grand prixs might want to overwrite this, e.g.: "war" grand prix: only rockets for all gadgets - Perhaps make good and bad things indistinguishable? - sound/music manager needed Make it easy to replace sounds (which are currently hardcoded), e.g via a config file. Sound/music should be selectable for a track, but a grand prix should be able to overwrite this to create a consistent ambience, ... - More tracks - More grand prixs - Code cleanup
