Huh, guess I don't have mad enough skills with it.

So what's on deck for version 0.3? Online? More weapons?

I hope for customisable weapons or any sort of easier modding.

Modding is actually pretty easy at this point, all resources have been in convenient formatting, rather then in some obscure compression and then in some custom filetype. As far as editing preexisting elements of the game (sounds, textures, maps) there could be no easier way although it would be nice to be able to add new elements to the game it may be lacking a little bit, although this is not something to easily add.

Oasis. Less Running, more rifle.

At this point, for 0.3, I've
* added a kind of ambient occlusion shader, doesn't work with those bushes and trees quite yet
* enabled a similar cover system for all weapons as with m240
* added a prone button, can be used with any weapon
* made shooting on prone more accurate than on crouch
* reduced m240 and mp5 accuracy
* added a few sounds, weapon drop and pickup
* worked out a few bugs, less crashes, allowing turning towards a crate when using knife starting from the back-against-wall posture

Still to do for 0.3, I'm planning to
* get rid of that character virtualization crash, I haven't seen it for a while now, but I haven't tested for extensive periods really
* add map modding features like defining building color and textures
* add a view mode to allow traveling through the map to see how it looks like, for map modding
* make weapon specification available on the outside, that being accuracy, rate of fire, mag size, factors for how sustained fire affects accuracy, suppressed yes/no, usable while standing yes/no
* add more graphics options: ambient occlusion on/off
* add more game options: AI accuracy, soldier count

Also, for a later release than 0.3, I've
* started to experiment with dust particle effects for running on sand and dirt
* started to experiment with new tree trunk/branch modelling, to get it 3D, should allow making other pole-like structures as well, street lights, utility poles, flag poles, tubes to decorate building roofs
* been working with the online mode. I've so far tested it with two PC's in LAN in both cooperative and adversary setting and the game seems to be very playable. There's still a lot to be done, proper client side prediction for worse than LAN lag and position smoothing, direction indicators for fellow team player's outside screen, menus to control all the settings, trying the game with more players, then optimizing the network traffic for more players, etc..

Hopefully I'll release 0.3 this week already, but latest next week.

The developers are good coders because Notch codes GUI first, and never manages to fix a bug without creating a new one, and Terraria has a horrible system of checking for items... every time an item is generated, the game goes through a massive list of every item in the game and then just verifies whether it's the right one or not... That's not a very optimised or efficient thing to do.
