Here is a categorized list of issues and problems with the marvelous game Globulation 2.

Because of bugs in the wiki and separate bugs in common web browsers (like Firefox), it has been necessary to split this list into smaller sublists on separate wiki pages. These sublists are:

This list is similar in many ways to the Developer Todo. It has not been integrated with that page for a few reasons. First, this list is intended to include issues with using the program without necessarily committing to actually doing anything about the issues. (Some issues may easily turn out to be just too hard.) Second, there is no intention to specify exact solutions for any issues. Any suggested actions here are intended as tentative ideas that will need to be reevaluated when it is time to do actual programming. Third, the contents of Developer Todo are currently not very organized and many individual items there are quite sketchy.

This list differs from the Wishlist by focusing on issues with already existing features of Globulation 2 instead of proposing new features. This list differs from the Community Todo by including many issues that are probably best addressed by programming, whereas Community Todo aims to list items that can be done by non-programmers.

(As a historical note, the very first version of this list was initially developed by Joe during 2007-04, based on experience with glob2 versions 0.8.16 (from the Ubuntu Dapper Drake package), 0.8.21 (from the .deb file on the Globulation 2 web site), and 0.8.22 and 0.8.23 (compiled from .tar.gz files on the Globulation 2 web site). The contents were influenced by very helpful comments from Steph, Kai, Leo, donkyhotay, Bradley, and Eli Dupree. Some remarks elsewhere on the wiki by NoSpin and Xylix also helped.)
