My favourite font is nonexistent!

I think I'm a bit OCD. When I was growing up, I was shown a way of writing and since have always preferred it. However, there seems to be no such font. This is very particular of me, and the font I'm looking for is close to a "natural" font, or so I've been told.

It is described thusly:

Sans serif
Single story "a"
Round letters (based on circles)
Double height "f"
Single non-looped "g"
Triple-tipped "G"
Serif-topped "I" and "J"
Non-flicked "q"
Inside and outside straight 45 degree Q-tip
Double-tipped "t"
Asymmetric "Y"
Seriffed "1"
Non-stroked "7"

Font buffs, do you know of anything? A hint is that it may have been used for educational purposes. I may have to edit a similar font if I can't find what I'm looking for. It's a shame that none of the "describe to find" font websites provide simply free software and open source fonts, or are available on Google's font library.

That's it for my incredibly OCD rant, till next time.

Features I'd like to see in Sauerbraten

I love the game Sauerbraten. But I can think of lots of ways I think it could be improved. I'll of course try to help this happen, and might update this list (and add suggestions!).

Proper gravity (including flying objects, perhaps toggle gravity of objects)
Fire hurts
Gunge/Poison
Circles/spheres easy creation
Saving of objects/big stuff for later
Admin coop AKA Play God - in which only the master can use editmode - great fun for "playing god" and wreaking havoc when no one else can.
Heightmaps in multiplayer (H key)
Breath (eg you die underwater after a while, like in Quake)
More ambient soundtracks, ambient noises.
Button triggers (eg you press or shoot something and something happens).
Proper doors that open or swing
Moving objects (automatic or manual via button/trigger) - eg trains.
Large walls of teleport material, for e.g. trains, yourselves.
Materials that change to others after a certain time, e.g. noclip slowly to air
Door keys
Liquid viscosity
No glitching when you try to put a hole in a pyramid
More human models
Gun reloading sequences
Auto getmap/sendmap (Getmap when you join, sendmap when someone else joins)
Master newmap restriction
Grappling hook
Item capture - person who captures most items without being killed wins.
Marks on walls from chainsaw
Flamethrower
Gravity gun
Physics gun
Time/space warping (global/local/gun) (haha)
Shield/Disarming field
Turrets
Vehicles
Flammable items/materials (e.g. wood) with degrading.
M/F Voices (inc. player), not just "captured" but also "lacerated" etc.
Female models?
Customisable music
Panic mode (Fuzzy/red view when player has too much adrenaline)

burning things and vehicles can be realized/simulated by scaling flames. In Sauerbraten you can change colours and scale of particles, including flames by pressing PERIOD. the door script isnt so difficult . If game mode is singleplayer it can be done by pressing ESC/options/ents/trigger and choosing the right triggers for switch and door. So it can be realized for examplethat a door opens if you walk towards it. But i miss some other things in sauerbraten,too: - *.tga as a texture file -breakabe things, e.g. glass -triggers for cubes and not only mapmodels (define a number of cubes as a model..) -more trigger options: ×trigger move(move sth to a position when u go through trigger) ×trigger movie (yes, I think, then a story will be created) ×trigger hurt(i dont like it to be death immedatley) ×trigger say(a text is displayed on screen when walking through it(e.g. for map-tutorials or quests)) ×ladderclip(i know that ladders are possible, but clip is better) -smaller grid(yes, i like to have very detailed things) -better gameplay(reloading nessecary, not so high jumps, not so fast running, more weapons, crouching instead of having small playermodels -monsters in Mp(all players fight together against monsters) -vis optimizing(you don't load what u don't see) -teleports/jumppads without sound(or custom sound) -... I think n general that triggers like doors should be realized with material(like clip,lava and so one)so that the trigger shows which cubes/objects should be the action of the trigger So you dont have to create own models( and animations(difficult)

for fire hurting just add the death material over the fire a few of the things that you want are already in there they are just single player exclusively. there are buttons and triggers in sp. for how to make one check out the sauerbraten docs that came with the game. (its under the mapmodal entrie in the editing reference). the doors opening thing is just because no one has made a modal with an animation that swings. you can achieve the telewall by making teleports with the tag /newent teleport [the teledest number] -1, this creates an invisable teleport of which you can create mutiple to cover said wall with. moving objects are also only in sp. use the ent type elevator to go up/down and the type platform to go any other direction. for door keys you just need to setup a script for your map that requires you to get one trigger before the other will do anything. (im a little weak on cubescript but ive seen it done) the rest would make awesome additions to the game (burning things and vehicles would be my favorites here)

My favourite font is nonexistent!
