Before 2.0:
- [DONE, Toulouse 2008 students, configuration option missing] if a fight
starts outside of the displayed zone, automaticaly move to center on the
fight (configurable)
- possibility to Drag and Drop the map
- perfect implementation of Risk rules (optional if some enhancements are
implemented) ;
- [DONE] hability to save game at any point
- [DONE] use khotnewstuff for new skins
- use Jabber to offer or find network games
Middle to long term:
- game periods (distribution of armies, attacks, ...) should be simultaneous
for all the players. But keep a turn-by-turn organization (partly-real-time) ;
- map = 3D model, map = earth or other planet; could be zoomed and rotated.
sprites = flat images or (better) 3D models too.
Ideas by Dre to be dispatched :
(3) [DONE] show the results of the dice rolled
(4) [DONE] make it clearer who lost what in a battle
(1) [DONE] The animation is
too slow
(6) [DONE] let me pick the number of armies to
attack with using the keys - 1, 2, 3 - clicking takes too long if you are
doing a repeat battle
(5) [To be done for 1.9] I would initiate an attack by clicking on the attack
armies and then when you drag you drag a canon with you to the target
country - this dovetails nicely
with opint (1), b/c then you don't have to slowly move the cannon afterwards
(2) [To be done for 2.0 ?] Color-code the countries by the owner - the flags are
too hard to identify
(7) [DONE] have a "battle until troops exhausted" option -
sometimes you just want a country no matter what the cost, but a cancel
button would be useful too (in this case it would be nice if a dialog
popped up with the two countries enlarged and the battle raging and
soldiers falling in each round - hey, it's a wishlist,
I can dream, no ;-) ?
