Progress report
The reworked platform movement logic and sentry guns have been finished. I had to modify many of the existing levels slightly to work better with the new platform and elevator behavior. I'm quite happy with the results. Except for the "Pit" multiplayer level. I didn't like it much before and now it's even worse. I will likely redesign it from scratch or remove it completely.
I also rewrote all mouse control code. This time the mouse moves a visible cursor that the player character aims at. I will probably still keep it disabled by default.
Next alpha release will be coming "soon". There are still a few bugs that have to be fixed. I have designs ready on paper for two new single player levels. Those will likely be included in next release as well.
