=== Ideas ===
==== HUD ====
 * some kind of helmet with live support readings
 * semi transparent HUD (maybe with moving and adaptable HUD elements)
 * new cross hair
{{{
#!html
{<span style="color:orange">idea of simple but comfortable</span>}
}}}
 * sniper function
{{{
#!html
{<span style="color:orange">crosshair has to be changed and camera behavior</span>}
}}}
 * visual markings of important world entities (mission critical stuff)
{{{
#!html
{<span style="color:red">hard because it most definitely has something to do with OpenGL stuff</span>}
}}}
 * visual improvement of radar
 * ability to display and hide HUD elements (show only oxygen reading when not walking in an atmosphere etc.)
 * animations (weapon animations, HUD animations and stuff)
 * status displays in HUD
{{{
#!html
{<span style="color:red">probably easy just place some text somewhere</span>}
}}}
==== FPS ====
 * crouch function
{{{
#!html
{<span style="color:orange">Bounding Box is not affected by crouching</span>}
}}}
 * probably some changes with the camera and the weapon
{{{
#!html
{<span style="color:orange">recalibrated camera</span>}
}}}
 * probably a lean function (to look around corners)
 * weapon change (hand to hand combat (hand, knife, stunner), laser rifle, sniper rifle)
