So, I was reading the proposed values to some QSB limits...

BSP/Dimensions
Normal limit: 4096 units
QSB: 1073741824 units(!!!!1ONE)

Aren't we being a bit overkill here ? I mean, while I agree 4096 units is too small, more than 1 billion of units is not feasible for a indoor-class 3D engine. And I am not even touching in the network part of the problem, lets just stick to how would we deal with such farclip limit.

Which brings another question: are we sticking to protocol 15, or embracing FitzQuake protocol 666, or DP 7, or create our own protocol, or what ?

Sorry it took so long, I've been busy

I'd like to see more bugfixes mentioned. I also have a feeling I forgot a bugfix or two which people mentioned should be part of the spec, please remind me if so, or add them yourselves as may be

Are any of the extensions questionable considering usefulness? Should I add examples of how the extensions might be useful for a modder or mapper?

Discuss!
