12:17 <@schmorp> i do list all libs manually for pclient
12:17 <@schmorp> will have to do that for gce too
12:17 <@schmorp> remind me of it
12:17 <@schmorp> qwhen i next bundle it

- IMPORTANT: pickup ratio not settable?
- IMPORTANT: password-entry dialog (query!) not hidden, should be fixed
             together with removing query dialog altogether.
- IMPORTANT: toggle stats/messgae log window to visible while character creation is active.
- IMPORTANT: history for completer (cursor-up)
- IMPORTANT: bind keys using the completer
- IMPORTANT: map-clicking is still off-by-one randomly

should be solved/investitaged before BETA release:
- add lmb mouse = cast, mmb2 = invoke or so to spell list.
- maybe open the help viewer on the first start, or a simple dialog that
  initially lists keybidings for gcfclient converts.
- add a "serve rinfo" setup page that tells you what the server supports
  and more importantly what it does not support.
- put metaserver list into scrolled viewport, move Use button to back,
  add tooltips, close together with setup dialog or even notebook page
  becoming invisible.
- message log/textview flickers on update.
- binding window and editor layout broken for long recordings
- sorted spell dialog + second spell bind dialog with checkboxes: invoke and cast distinction
  (use popups, not buttons)
- minor: skill list which shows XP and lets u bind stuff
- adding another notebook page "Debug" that sets debnugging flags might or
  might not help tracking down bugs in the field?
- log messages received and commands sent to ~/.crossfire/log.$ip
- Attempt to free unreferenced scalar: SV 0x11f5d98 during global destruction.
  (after starting, press quit)
- mapmap (overview) - scroll visible area by clicking/dragging
- maybe move window managing functionality into toplevel: better window management (graphical feedback)
- the player weight somehow updates strangely when dropping/picking up
  (update: is this still the case?)

should be solved/investigated before 1.0 release:
- slider e.g. in setup/Spells is not updated when becoming visible
- add menu itemds for inventory items for UNcommon actions: mark/inscribe etc.
- split up gauges into: head, body and foot, so that contents begin in the interior of gauges
- enter runmode when cursor-key repeats (maybe not?)
- better focus management: put focus onto active windows, remove it again later
  (mainly to speed up gui interaction when map isn't important).
- cairo/win32 looks like shit (premultiplied alpha bug?)
  (despite horrendous efforts, this is likely not fixable except by building a custom
  libcairo for win32).
  (update: disabled antialiasing, this looks bad, but much better than antialiasing)
- the binding editor should have a append-record mode or something like that
- make a real "table" for the spell list (not long strings like lvl: xxx sp: xx)
  and add column titles (also for other tables like inventory and bindings)
- sliders do not change size after reconfigure.
- use more graphical frames/separators to make dialogs more eye-pleasing/clean.
- investigate fill widget option.
- win32, fow_tetxure sometimes nukes other textures
  (mostly fixed, but still there: displays list and texture uploads do not go well together)
- get rid of ScrolledWindow special case and use draw_xywh rectangle inside TextView for optimisation.
- completer should know more about arguments, e.g. cast summon pet monster,
  or that some commands do not take arguments ("drop all").
- textview should not snap to bottom on resize.
- alt+cursor == diagonal
- look into extendedmapinfo
- save only dirty cached maps, and save dirty maps != current map
- try to synchronize local animation speed with server updates to save on screen refreshes.
- player list from server for tell etc. commands
- examine etc., should use extendeddrawinfo or sth. similar
- maybe use outline fonts/effect for statusbox and floorbox (and health gauge stats etc.).
- fow intensity => fow color (greyscale, just rename), add fow darkness slider, too
- performance: use texture collections for upstream server data instead if gobs
  of small textures.
- when mipmapping upstream data files, run a fatten pass so pixels with alpha=0 don't negatively
  affect neighbouring visible pixels (border bleeding).
- pango fontsize measure and decrease to achieve real pixel height

TEMPORARY SERVER TODO:
- palyer peaceful setting should be independen of game peaceful setting
  (i.e. one should be able to become hostile against guards but still
  be peaceful - the palyer peaceful would be toggled by priests and shown
  in who, the game peaceful steting would be toggled by the peaceful command
  but not otherwise shown).
- pippij wants playerstealing to work between hostile players
- attempt_jump tries to kick jumped-into monster,s but doesn't work
- 1) If you hide, and someone can see you trying to hide, you'll get a
  message, even when you can't see that other person.
- 2) hiding exp is always 1, independant of how difficult it is to hide
- 3) jumping into monsters does no damage, even though it's supposed to 
  be an attack (mentioned before). You also get no exp for this
- 10) (feature request): bug/typo/idea commands to automatically log
  your comments, with the mentioning of the current map (and perhaps an
  item, if you do 'bug <item>').

   To achieve a more complete blending, you can have your drawing engine rasterize each transparent object more than once, altering in each pass the blending mode, object alpha channel, and buffer write masks. The first pass should perform RGB blending. Accordingly, you should disable writing any alpha channel or z buffer data during this pass.
   /*first pass*/
   glColorMask(TRUE, TRUE, TRUE, FALSE);           /*disable alpha channel*/
   glDepthMask(FALSE);                             /*disable Z buffer*/
   if (premultpliedTransparency)
       glBlendFunc(GL_ONE, GL_ONE_MINUS_SRC_ALPHA);
   else
       glBlendFunc(GL_SRC_ALPHA, GL_ONE_MINUS_SRC_ALPHA);
   /*render the object here*/

   On the second pass, you should set the frame buffer alpha channel value to (1- a s )(1- a d ). To do this, you need to render the object again, with a different alpha value, as follows:
   /*second pass*/
   glColorMask(FALSE, FALSE, FALSE, TRUE);         /*enable alpha channel*/
   glDepthMask(FALSE);                             /*disable Z buffer*/
   glBlendFunc(GL_ONE_MINUS_DST_ALPHA, GL_ZERO);
   /*render the object with alpha replaced with 1-a*/

   Finally, the third pass should replace the value in the alpha channel with the final value 1-((1- a s )(1- a d )). To do this, you need to render the object again, with its alpha value set to 1, as follows:
   /*third pass*/
   glColorMask(FALSE, FALSE, FALSE, TRUE);         /*enable alpha channel*/
   glDepthMask(TRUE);                              /*enable Z buffer*/
   glBlendFunc(GL_ONE_MINUS_DST_ALPHA, GL_ZERO);
   /*render the object with alpha replaced with 1*/
