Todo List

Global BuzzData::LaunchFacility [MAX_LAUNCHPADS]

what is LaunchFacility == 1?

Global try_fopen

ENOENT is POSIX, ANSI equivalent for file does not exist???

Global DurPri

Link this at whatever place the duration is actually defined

Global Future

the whole Future()-function is 500 >lines and unreadable

Global Missions

This mapping of val -> drawing of missions steps should be more variable

Global CheckIfMissionGo

introduce mission attribute "manned vs. unmanned"

Global GetMisType

This is highly coupled to game logic and size of internal structures.

Global GetMisType

Missing assert for opening file?

Global Launch

The "early" missions should be defined in a file

Global PlaySequence

assumption about seq_filename len

Global PlaySequence

do not ignore width/height

Global PlaySequence

track decoding time and adjust delays

Global PlaySequence

idle_loop is too inaccurate for this

Global setup_options

possibly maintain a list of dirs to search??

Global setup_options

should use PATH_MAX or something similar here

Global frm_read_tbl

Assumption about the size of name is too high, right?

Global AstroTurn

: This code must be split... it's cluttered beyond hope

Global Replay

assumption on file extension

Global UpdateHardTurn

limit of hardcoded 28 hardware types

Global find_replay

Uses fread() here - should be fread_REPLAY(&Rep, 1, f);

Page Event Card Structure

A load of code uses these number directly. We should fix this and attach propper attributes to the missions or keep lists of missions having these attributes.
