Gentlemen: my comment was made with programming in mind, as we know a few really good ones, however, they currently work for other companies as such, therefore any project undertaken in their spare time, as they are not SWR players as a rule, would most likely require as 'incentive' of some kind, first to consider the idea (RebEd 2?) then to promote swift enough progress that we might see the results in our lifetime, instead of missed release dates and the like, which we've suffered through before as I'm sure some of you will recall easily enough! It is my proposition, to get a small group of programmers together over the web or perhaps in my area, and present them some small amount of money ($ XXX.XX) ? to construct from what we already have and what we know (dll entries etc...) an editor to perform all the formerly listed possibilities- resource / maintenance points editing/training, 3d model editing, cut scene editing (remove and replace!), planetary resource editing/natural disasters- on/off/where/when... perhaps we could have an idea page here on the site - though of course the site is not mine so this is only a request/idea for Evaders- so that the players can submit some idea of what is needed to make the Final editor everything they could want, and we won't have to do this again! Well, start playing with the ideas that used to roll around in our heads, and let's see if we can put something together and get it off the ground! As large as the SWR Community is, I think we could accomplish something of this nature easily enough if we put our minds to it. GreyWolf
