These are confirmed for v4.0 (as Fred said in a previous post).

I'd like to see uncalled procedures NOT being compiled into the executable.

Optional parameters support for procedures. The weird thing is, these are already supported for the native PB libraries but not for any user created libraries and procedures ... ..

This is only true for procedures.
Libraries do support optional parameters since v3.50 (IIRC)

Yup... and even El_Choni's tailbite app allows for this feature.

Take a look at all of the pb native libraries that come with PB. There is the optional [Flags] parameters ... optional, they have been there for quite awhile

I didnt know about Tailbite supporting optional parameters, I'm now going to have to grab the newest release and read the docs

I look at the orge engine as a big bug becasue alot of it is buggy and out of date and thats the only part that hasn't been updated for a long time.
the only thing it really good for now is for 3d demos...

1. More complete Network library.

2. Update Visual Designer and better IDE ( isn't good we use other IDE and designer for work with PB )

3. Fixed length strings.

I have voted "more variable types", thinking to fixed lenght strings.

Big and nice feature i think is support Unicode in PB.

Very users like use unicode strings and apps in PB but is always hard to work for this they must use another programming language

Other nice feature is fix lenght strings and maybe fix problem in KillThread() when use it.
