TODO

General

• use matrix thing for UVManager (linear algebra is hard)
• Add action wheel icons
• [.] add separate function for updating relevant state variables instead of sending full state to save bandwidth
• add function that gets total health with absoprtion
• retractable wipers when it rains
• avatar themes?? (AvatarAPI.getColor)

Rewrite

• [.] fix data api
  • [.] ConfigAPI
• [.] reimplement avatar settings
• [.] fix sound
• fix Blockbench animations
• [.] fix or disable custom commands (can probably use /figura run)
• fix armor, won't re-enable until cleanup

Cleanup

• Rewrite state management and synchronization code to be less horrifying
  • one library for syncing state
    • sender side: allow syncing entire state (EXPENSIVE) or just single values
      • internally map variable names to a number deterministically to reduce unnecessary data transfer i.e. t["this_is_a_very_long_but_readable_variable_name"]=42 -> t[6]=42
      • [.] use a lookup table/array based on order added
      • [.] user should never see this, variable name to number translation should be completely transparent
    • [.] alternatively no manual syncing; state should be implicitly "shared" and can only be written to/read from via functions to prevent bad programming from desyncing state
    • [.] receiver side: register handler function that has access to both old and new state
      • [.] receive value -> run handler function -> replace old value with current
    • i think figura has a shared storage thing but it's not real time, mirror values to this so newly initialized players load with correct state
  • [.] one library for storing configs and their default values
    • [.] this will insert values into the shared state using the other library
• [.] potentailly rework shared state variables
• rework appropriate action wheel items as ToggleAction instead of ClickAction
• [.] split off large snippets of code into separate files
  • [.] PartsManager
  • [.] UVManager
  • [.] utility functions
• cleanup tick functions, timers
• cleanup armor code to make less redundant

Low priority

• reimplement partial vanilla as texture swap
  • remove partial_vanilla stuff from PartsManager
  • fix UVManager with matrices or something
  • add swap to skin texture

Done

• fix pings
• fix action wheel
