Not currently - transparency is generally a much different kind of thing than applying a color since transparency requires the polygons to be processed in a particular order.

So that will be a different task to work on in the future, it is not really related to the colorizing or lighting engine work that I recently did.

Collision detection would usually be something included in a physics simulation type program, not really in a modeling program. That's again something that would be a much different task to implement than what is currently in MoI. Maybe it will be possible in the future at some point, but not for quite some time.


You can control whether snapping is active on locked objects or not, there is a setting for that under Options > Snaps > Object snap options > Snap to locked objects checkbox.
