WWII Reality - Changes

Note: Generally, to-do is in order of newest on bottom and change history is in order of newest on top.

To-do

Next release

Completed: + = to-do item, V = vehicles, A = aircraft, L = land vehicles, S = ships

V  -Increase LOD distances on all objects and effects
AS -Modify reload times as necessary, especially on vehicles (research)
AS -Modify ammunition capacities as necessary, especially on vehicles (research)
   -Modify vehicle damage, especially water damage
   -Soldiers don't take damage from water
AS -Modify projectile velocity (research) [velocity is in meters per second]
   -Fix cannon reload freezing after 15 seconds in battleships
   -Make ships sink slower (suggested by JJ)
S  -Increase TimeToLive on all dynamic objects (some projectiles/explosives might need research)
   -Fix things known to "pop into view": defgun bunker, ammo box, flags, trees, watch tower, medic locker, some buildings, smoke, bombs
+  -Remove smoke trails on cannon projectiles
+  -Add externally visible bombs to planes and position them
AS -Make visible weapons operational: some aircraft, ships, and tanks
   -Reduce soldier crouch/prone collision height
   -Add objects that are exclusive to official maps such as the Ju88A
   -Add spent shell casing projectile where needed (especially aircraft and AA)
   -Increase spent shell casing lifetime
V  -Adjust mass of objects, especially vehicles and projectiles (research) [mass is in kilograms]
   -Add recoil force on all vehicles (e.g. cannons cause ship to move) [fireingForce]
   -Add collision physics to all objects as necessary (e.g. turrets)
   -Make visible mounted bombs reappear when reloaded
   -Adjust range of motion for mounted weapons
   -Fix patrol boat mines exploding when dropped
   -Stability test before and after release

Near future releases (most or all of these should happen)

 -Add sonar to submarines (voluntary) and other ships as necessary
 -Add independent torpedo tubes to submarines
 -Add simultaneous fire (primary fire) and independent firing (secondary fire) to ship cannons; depth charges and artillary targetting will need to be considered
 -Modify ship motion (research)
 -Redesign sonar to be realistic (outward instead of around and only works underwater)
 -Modify repair/heal speed and capabilities, such as one engineer can't repair a ship and soldiers can't be healed while they're moving
 -Make sniper scope more realistic
 -Add gravity pull to all projectiles (what goes up must come down)
 -Add tracers where necessary
 -Add fuel (engine life time) to all vehicles
 -Adjust speed of motion for mounted weapons
 -Add the correct number of torpedo tubes to Sub7C (4 forward, 1 aft) and Gato (6 forward, 4 aft)
 -Add additional positions and weapon types to vehicles: AA gun on subs, torpedo tubes on destroyers, more guns on ships, cannons on planes, etc.
 -Allow knife in water
 -Re-arrange class weapons (research)
 -Engineer can remove wrecked vehicles
 -Add 2 additional torpedo tubes to patrol boats
 -Fix prop blur on AichiVal (spinner appears and disappears)
 -Make bomb bay doors operational
 -Make vehicles act without a driver as they would with a driver not touching the controls
 -Make view ports in vehicles (and any other holes) pass bullets through and players inside vulnerable to it
 -Ammunition and other objects add weight to the vehicle
 -Adjust vehicles for correct strengths and weaknesses
 -Check and adjust size of objects, especially vehicles (research)
 -Improve wake behind sea vehicles
 -Add menu music
 -Add aircraft flaps
 -Allow bullets of a certain type and speed to pass through (limited) certain objects (e.g. sniper bullet passes through a head)
 -Modify weapon overheat speed (research)
 -Make weapons break when overheated too much
 -Allow disabling of explosives while prone (not standing unless possible by distance from wrench) and repairing while crouched
 -Allow artillery targetting for all cannons
 -Make depth charges more realistic both for time, depth, and damage effect
 -Make projectiles affected by speed of originating weapon, maybe except for rockets
 -Fix rifle ammo bug
 -Remove zoom from non-scoped weapons (probably to be replaced by iron sights)
 -Adjust speed of sound
 -Remove falling bomb sound as necessary (research)
 -Remove reverse from planes and add wheel breaks
 -Make it take time to crawl in and out of vehicles
 -Make shadows more realistic
 -Change controls for ship guns (mouse is too slow and tiring with modified weapon speed)
 -Add custom icon and background image/movie
 -Add blood

Probably distant future releases (most of these probably will not happen)

 -Destructible buildings
 -Specific damage to vehicle parts, affecting control of the vehicle accordingly
 -Soldiers can swim under water
 -Soldiers drown after about a minute under water
 -Add new WW2 vehicles (need pre-created models or a modeler to help out)
 -Add realistic aircraft instruments
 -Add better explosion effects, especially for cannons
 -Add iron sights
 -Fish (suggested by JJ)
 -Make timed fuzes (AA, TNT, etc.) settable by the player
 -Remove proximity fuze from AA once player settable timed fuze is added
 -Sharing of ammunition clips in vehicles, such as the B-17 guns take clips from the same stash
 -For planes that shoot through the propeller, sync the firing rate to the prop speed
 -Ability to change ammunition loadout at an ammo reload station
 -Add water motion effect and controlled anchor to sea vehicles
 -Make projectiles physically ricochet when below a certain speed or angle
 -Make explosives be duds on rare and random occasions
 -Add arrestor cables to carriers and arrestor hooks to carrier planes
 -Make vehicle enter/exit animations
 -Add manual transmission
