 There's a big community, documentation and tutorials.

 It supports weapon and h2h combat. Of course Oni's unique fighting style would have be re-written. But everything else should be supported by the engine. Particle, trigger volumes, wide environments, details characters. What else could you wish for?

 Beneath the Game Icon can be set however I couldn't spot its used location yet. Maybe it will show up later when the game gets "cooked".

-====Difficulty====
+====Sockets====
-Easy
+You can't socket static meshes. Set them to be "movable".
-* -20%? health for foes
+====Powerups====
+If powerups don't spam the area they should fall to the ground after use. They should be throwable and kickable to attract the attention of foes.
+Maybe there should be a weight penalty to motivate h2h combat. As less items you carry around as faster, powerful and agile you are. Reminded to Ultra saiyan vs Super saiyan?
-Normal
+'''Done stuff'''
+* All powerup "glowtex" textures has been recreated in higher resolution.
+* Pickup '''materials use emissive color''' to be actual "glowtex".
+* Pickup event executes a '''preflight''' to check for valid objects. For example it will determine whether your pickup slots for hypos are all full or not. In a second step only one of the valid pickups is added to the inventory.
+* Slots in the character skeleton will be used for further experiments. Pickups will be stored in belt and chest pockets. (Short one-hand weapons (e.g. pistols) are going to be holstered at the legs while rifles are put on the back.)
+* Powerups in sockets are scaled down and their glowtex becomes disabled.

 * sounds ("cannot pickup more", "usage")
 * health bar interaction (the pretty, circular one)
-* usage of visible hypospray slots on the character ? (think of belts or vest pockets)
-** "sockets" can be used for this
-'''Disadvantage of sockets'''
-* They have to be defined in the skeleton.
-* Weapons and items would quickly make the appearance of a character very crowded.
