Bugs
| Bug | Fixed |
|---|---|
| The models are not rendering correctly in relation to the camera. The math of the model in relation to the camera is still pseudo-3D | |
| Collision when firing at enemy inaccurate...not really a bug as I haven't added point-to-point collision | |
| Firefox - The audio of the engine has a pause in between each loop. It can be done better I think | |
| Firefox - Game feels sluggish | |
| Internet Explorer - Spacebar doesn't work | |
| Internet Explorer - The game canvas isn't rendering at all | |
| Enemy displays on radar outside of radar | |
| Reticle doesn't respond beyond 1000 pixels |
