Nevermind, just found. It would be cool to add a mods selection menu (not from console, but from main menu) like in Quake rerelease and recently in Ironwail. Will the coronas that are visible through walls (my most hated DP bug) be fixed?

I'll think about the mods thing.  how can I duplicate corona issue? need  to cause it to examine it.

Mods menu item in main will need to look nice and natural.  If I can think of way to achieve that ...

(I only do things if the result can look nice).

Question:

I am making autocomplete better.

What autocompletes would make life easier?  I am having "save", "load", "exec" autocomplete for example using the save games in paths.

But some DarkPlaces users probably use features I do not think about often.

Anything that if it autocompleted would help?

Hi Baker, I am maybe an idiot, but what autocomplete means?

If I type "map e" and press tab it fills in e1m1 in the console.  If I press tab it says "map e1m2"

Or I type  "exec d" and press tab it fills in to"exec default.cfg"

I tried to create the coronas seen through walls thing in Zircon by setting Lighting High, which sets r_coronas to 1.  I went to several places with torches.

I was not able to cause the problem.

Is this problem only limited to unreleased DarkPlaces like the Jan 2023 build or should I be able to cause this somehow?
