One more "bug": If you have your inventory open, and there is an item on the ground behind your inventory, when you hover over items in your inventory it actually shows the details of the item on the ground. And also, hover text appears under other text on the screen (like your current AC, hit damage, etc) so it's hard to read if that text is in the way.

And about my previous comment about items falling in the water: You can still get them if their sprite is showing above the water. So I'm guessing that you're doing some kind of vector cast to see if there is an object to get, and that vector stops at the water.

Some ideas of things to add, some you probably already know of:

Add transparency slider for the hud to the options screen. I made a cool UW1 paperdoll for the inventory slots but I can barely see it.
Fix arrow stacks. Other items should stack too, like scrolls and potions
Potions should identify after you drink them. And maybe scrolls and wands shouldn't be identified until they are used also?
can you increase the "get" distance just a little? I feel like I have to stand right on top of things and look down to pick them up.
Maybe traps should show up on the map after you've seen them go off?

Some things, kinda bugs, but more like just some stuff I broke while trying to do mods:

trying to spawn items with the dungeon info.dat files makes them not getable
Ranged Weapons don't seem to care what missiles you use. for my UW mod I created sling, bow, and crossbow, and stones, arrows, and bolts. Any weapon can fire any missile.
Trying to create a healer, I made a monster with a negative attack. This crashes the game whenever it attacks. I then gave it a zero attack and a spell with a negative baseDamage. A negative randDamage will also crash the game. But this works - I can get healed from this monsters spell attack but it ignores maxHP and I can heal as high up as I want.
I was trying to make a fishing pole so I made a weapon with a range of 3 and a knockback of -2. This does weird things. Sometimes I can bring an enemy right through me and they end up behind me. Sometimes they are "inside" me. And sometimes they come, hit me, and then go flying back further away then they were before I hit them. Also it seems the knockback calculation is purely 2-dimensional as I can't knock things up or down even when I'm standing way above or below them.
Can you made it so that items on the ground are affected by knockback? Then my fishing pole would be really cool - there could even be a part where an item is up out of reach, or a part where an item is out on an island in lava so you have to decide to either brave the lava or go find a fishing pole.
Can you made a flag for monsters like isWaterMonster so that I can make my UW lurkers? Obviously a water monster can only spawn and move on water. Also, isLavaMonster so I can make my fire elementals.
also entities need flags for floatsOnWater and floatsOnLava. When an entity floats it will bob with the surface of the water, instead of being on a fixed y-offset like it is now.
I've tried creating enchanted items (like ring of fire resist or amulet of poison resist, etc) in the items.dat file but it crashes the game. I am doing it wrong or is this not implemented yet? I'm trying it like this:
         {
            class:com.interrupt.dungeoneer.entities.items.Armor,
            itemType:armor,
            tex:48,
            name:"RING OF FIRE RESIST",
            armor:0,
            equipLoc:"RING",
            yOffset:-0.11
            enchantment: {
               class: com.interrupt.dungeoneer.entities.items.ItemModification,
               fireResist: 3
            }
         }
