Scripting
- Parse scripts into some form of IR instead of executing directly.
- Share loaded scripts between IOs
- Match timers by name when loading savegames
- Cleanup GetInfosCombineWithIO()
Savegames
- Keep the SaveBlock instance open througout the game (and create it at game start to simplify things)
- Autosave when changing levels - almost all needed information is already saved here
- Track which IOs changed and don't always save all of them!
Audio
- Implement environmental effects (reverb) for the OpenAL backend using the EFX OpenAL extension. Reverb is available in the DirectSound backend when EAX is available (Creative drivers only?)
