Your top wish list for update #2

[Damus_150]

Great Idea!

1 - F2P
2 - more updates: just more changes, more little updates.
3 - True ladder system!
4 - Bugfixes
5 - More variants in gameplay
6 - More environment, more important blocks and more things in Elite: Elite imho needs more possibilities and variants
7 - Update to replay! Interface, whole matches, something like these. Also for video, it would be nice!

1- Canyon/maniaplanet bug fixes (spec cam, holes in mountain road blocs, buddies...)
2- Height free placing for custom blocs (with mousewheel)
3- Titles servers in main server browser
4- More trigger sizes in MT
5- Valley beta
6- Some new blocs for canyon (can be cool 5-6 blocs every 2 month or something like that)
7- A total rebuild of the maniaplanet (actually i just play canyon and sm storm, but i just cannot imagine canyon + valley + stadium + storm + ??? + all titles in the main actual title browser, will be messy, a big server browser with many filters would be a lot easier to use.)
8- A real value for planets (buying goodies with planets, ubisoft games...)
9- Hylis participating WTC Cup and PMC

1. Variable fov. Let people atleast go as high as 110. Now you have no way of customizing it for comfort depending on monitor size and proffered distance to monitor.

2. Remove 3Dot laser. Just put a pure straight laser in and let the skill decide. It is a silly mechanic that makes the game appear broken for non-initiated.

3. Just pick a walljumpsystem and stick with it. You have really gone to far with b2 wj to remove it and just have b3 wj in the game. I would say that the only real option would be to try to build on b3 wj to get a proper flexible wj system to replace b2. There are so many more players out there now that actually learned to controll b2 wj. Going back to b3 wj's from that is like getting ball and chain on your foot.
Either way, just pick one so the discussion/whine/anger/joy can start and the game evolve.

4. Fix the mousepointer. Just keep it hidden until you press Alt as it used to be. As it is now you are pretty much forcing multimonitor users to change over to one monitor since you end up messing with stuff on the other monitors as soon as you die. And if you run game in res/hz, different from desktop, your monitor resets for new mode and so on.

5. Tweak Elite. Use small tweaks to try to change Elite into a more fun spectator/player gamemode. There are several parts of the Elite gameplay that would do good from some balancing and tweaks. Like give community the capability to mess around with cp timers to try to find a good balance. Cp system has been in over 6 months and you can't play with cp's since it is just broken and unbalanced.

6. Remove the 3cp limitation in Elite.

7. Open up the player variables more for custom gamemodes. I'm far from an expert but i.e. staminamax and staminagain is a real with a maximum of 1.0. This effectivly limits a lot of options for the community.

8. Expose more features in xml-rpc interface to server. As it is now you have a network interface that are very dependant for controllers to be installed on same machine as server to solve many things via local access to filesystem. I'm mainly thinking of maphandling.

• In the server browser, have the ability to sort by a certain column
• Ability to search your own track library
• More possible banked-road blocks in Canyon
• Ability to create Windows shortcuts to directly launch a ManiaPlanet title
• New map-size variants in Canyon and Stadium (see thread here for more info)
• Cross-environment servers (specify what titles are used in the config to allow only those with the required titles)
• More ManiaScript possibilities with TrackMania, such as:
  • implement block anchors akin to SM
  • ability to get the position/speed/angle of a player at any time (could allow for interesting modes, like tag)
  • Option to let CUIConfig.Hud3dMarkers use "block coordinates" and snap to the centre of a block
• TrackMania: Ability to ignore using server-side race UI (not what the * key does; that hides the interface completely)

[GanjaRider]

1-TM: Stadium release
2-TM: half block for Stadium (like this one in Canyon) so we can finally make a straight looping again since the physics changed in Forever 2008
3-TM: fix Triangles2D
4-TM: editor spectator mode
5-SM: hud in replays
6-SM: invert mouse setting easy to find at one place (see here)
7-SM: walljumping max 3 jumps in a row so you cant reach places you shouldn't
8-MP: fix blacklist in maniahome
9-MP: huge add campaign for more players
10-MP: more unity/simplicity and less bells and whistles like custom objects and different map sizes (keep underground)

- Add X and Z transition for item (in xml file)
- Idem for rotation


MediaTracker
- Undo/Redo button
- Show Item, Rockets (for ingame MT) and HUD
- Show player with Third Person View
- Loop button to loop some clips (like for actual Sounds Clip)
- Trigger with the offzone size

Other
- New Skin for Screens (1x3 and 3x1 in map editor) => enable Manialink on it (like spawnscreen) to make some ingame scores boards

Not for Nadeo, but link vote map (karma) with ManiaExchange

I have to add something more to my wishlist, (I'm not sure if you would've re-read it anyway so a new post..);

Relative-Absolute user interface engine.
The current ui engine (whatever) is ancient, dates from prehistoric times and will never ever support good-looking ui's. It's severely outdated and a plain copy-paste from TMF. Update it to a relative-absolute UI based engine (feel free to keep compatibility with the old system), and we're finally able to make stuff look amazing.

I don't understand why this wasn't addressed while making Maniaplanet 2.0 anyway.

quite some points already mentioned by others. also, keep up the good work: i must say that i'm very satisfied with the work done already!

just a couple of things that are either important to me, or which i think are important for the community:

1. multi-environment servers
2. improved AA (mainly in stadium)
3. more control over lighting (more lighting blocks, maybe the possibility to turn them on/off, strength, lighting in day and sunrise moods as well)
4. more moddable control regarding transparency
5. a third-party blockmixing tool like tmunlimiter (as far as NADEO can do anything about that)
6. ability to place custom blocks in mid-air (z-axis snapping)
7. imo, the the way titles work is still too unclear for me, and thus too complicated. i have not really thought about a better solution, but being a designer i cannot imagine that there are no easier and more intuitive ways to organize maniaplanet.

but all-in-all, keep up the good work. apart from some tweaks the games is awesome already.
