Newbies and Confused People - Look Here!

[Psitticine]

I doubt Shrapnel would have the slightest problem with 3rd party development. There's been so much work done with SEIV, Runesword II, and other products that I can't see why they'd be anything but pleased to see other people getting involved. And Illwinter certainly doesn't seem to mind, from what I've heard and seen.

I agree that being able to tweak the gods is much more satisfying, not to mention giving the whole thing that personal touch, and a third-party editor would be a great tool.

Maybe that same tool or another could add a game library management system that would promote selected games out of an archive system and into subdirectories, and vice versa, on command? It'd be nice to have all the old games around, to be able to pull something like these "add-water-and-stir" games for newbies and the curious we're talking about off the shelf, and to have various special games where the map and other settings have been set up to be a certain way all ready to play once they've been extracted.
