Absolutely love the mod. One issue I noticed is that only enemies ever cross the street. If you see anyone so much as leave the sidewalk you can shoot them dead.

Would it be possible for non-threatening NPCs to cross the road?

look in gameloop and gamedraw

I have a weird issue that when just crouching down with the sniperrifle and not pressing any keys or moving the mouse, the zoom will disengage after a second or two.
It seems SDL is erroneously generating a KEYUP-event for LCTRL for whatever reason. I have a workaround:

    mackey = sdlkeymap[event->key.keysym.sym];
+   if(mackey == MAC_CONTROL_KEY)
+       press = SDL_GetModState() & (KMOD_LCTRL | KMOD_RCTRL);

    if (mackey != -1) {
        index = mackey / 8;

SDL_GetModState() seems to return the state correctly. I didn't create a PR since I fear it might just be my system that is behaving weird. So, do you get this, too?

I played this game when it first came out and I remember there being a permanent slomo mode you could activate. I originally may have been playing on a Mac OS 9 though. Do you know about this feature?

Great work on this project. I know a little C++ and I would love to figure out how to get into modding some day.
