When can we expect to get the next version?

I am eagerly awaiting when Zandronum finally catches up to the latest ZDoom versions. Not being able to set up automap controls is particularly vexing. Also, the latest version of ZDoom already has a reload function supported.

I heard that after the next release (1.1), which is only a bugfix release, the developers will start upgrading the code base.

You're going to be waiting a long time, then.

We've been able to make effective weapon "reloading" systems for years without needing this function. If you learn how to use DECORATE, you can do anything. :)

Except non-hacky fixed damage bullets... :V

Okay well in that case, you DO need to wait for a backport. ;p

The Reload Button in ZDoom make things much less of a headache though, especially if you want a weapon that can reload AND have a secondary fire.

... We can still already do this with the help of ACS and custom key bindings. Although I have noticed (with both BrutalDoom and Mercenaries) that the Reload key is affected by lag, and it's really noticeable if you have a crappy connection like me. Sometimes you have to wait like 2 full seconds before your weapon actually reloads after pressing the key. (This is inevitable, it's because there's some client-server delay between pressing the button and recieving the "IsReloading" inventory item.) Hopefully ZDoom's reload function won't suffer this same problem. Hopefully it will instantaneously appear effective on the clientside (even if the server hasn't recieved that packet yet) just like pressing the Fire button.
