1.) When will the next version be out?
When it’s done. End of story. There is no official release date internally, so there isn’t any way we can answer that question privately, never mind give a public release date.
2.) How do I edit SRB2 to make my own levels and characters?
Read the Editing section on the website. There is so much information there that you should find what you’re looking for. If you still don’t get it after reading it, ask a specific question about it.
3.) How do I play a netgame?
Use the game's Join Game (Search) menu in the Multiplayer menu. It will list all currently running public netgames
4.) Can you make Shadow/Amy/insert character here?
No. Knuckles isn’t even done, so there is no way we’re making addons officially. However, there is nothing stopping you from drawing your own and making it.
5.) Can you add loops and slopes?
No. Unless you’re an expert in linear algebra and are willing to help us with the math, of course. Rendering slopes requires REALLY nasty math. Loops are even more impossible, because the sprites aren’t capable of doing the movement required, and would need more sprites than feasible to create.
6.) How do I use levels and skins?
Press ~ to get to the console and type ADDFILE <Filename.wad> and press enter. Most maps replace Greenflower Act 1, and the loaded skins should appear on the character select menu.
7.) How do I host netgames?
You must open port 5029 UDP in order for people to be able to join your game. However, you can still join netgames without having to open this port.
8.) Where do I get that wad?
If it is not in the Addons section of the SRB2.org website, then it probably hasn't been publicly released yet. Some wads are usually passed around in the IRC chatroom for testing, so you may not be able to find them on the website unless the creator decides to submit it to the Addons section.
9.) What are all of the console commands?
Use the HELP command to get a complete list of commands.
