i dont know why this page was changed into the totally useless thing it is now but it was a list of topics that would come up all the time.
for example requests to include...
-better fps mode with a real cockpit
-sphere maps/"wrap around" maps
-midgame joining / save&load


check this random old version:

Midgame spec join has been implemented by BrainDamage - and its pure awesome. You can even rejoin if you dropped as a player!


Edit: Since asking what is MTR is MTR, I should lock :D

[Das Bruce]

Yes, it isn't pretty but it works.

[Beherith]

Works like a charm for me, takes me less time to get up to speed on a long running game than it does for everyone to place their start points and rup.

MTR is sort of a elephant graveyard of good, bad and ugly ideas.

[Forboding Angel]

Ugly ideas: like spherical maps... Sigh.

[Google_Frog]

Are you saying it wouldn't be awesome if overnight Spring was able to support spherical maps with no downsides?

At least if someone would waste time actually making spherical maps instead of proper ones, it would suck a bit

Spehrical maps, you say forb? What a great idea, never thought about that, but now that i take a closer look, i can see the sphere spining till every unit drops off the map. Who is this mysterious Sir Sigh, who has such great innovations to contribute? Id like to meet him.

Knowing that smoth sometimes refers to him as mr. le sigh, i asume he is a friend of emanuell.
