All right the purpose of this is to inform you how to use the unofficial editor to do things
I:Overview A. Tabs Now, with the unnoficial editor you can see most parts of the moudule, you can change what you are looking at by going to the top, selecting view, and choosing what you want to edit.
1. Module Info. Here you can see a 2D version of your modules map, on the side are alot of things which tell your module what to do, Also there is a link to Thorgrim's map editor.
2. Conversations This part allows you to edit conversations, you can make people say stuff here. Nuff said
3. Factions This part defines the factions, and thier relations to one another.
4. Items Here is where you can edit items, the interface here is a little complicated so I'll get into it later.
5. Map Icons This defines the different map Icons, I will not teach you how to mess with this as I do not know myself.
6. Menu Here you can change what the different menus say. You can edit
the options you get at the begging of the game.
7. Mission Templates This is where things like how to get into battles, and how to enter towns is defined. You can also edit the Arena here.
8. Parties Here is where the information for the towns, spawn points, and troops in cities.
9. Party Templates This is where all the parties you see in the game are stored. You can edit what troops they get, and how many.
10. Quests Here you can add new quests, although what they actually do isn't defined here, just what appears on the quest menu ingame.
11. Scenes Anywhere you can walk around is defined here. You can edit passages, chests, and terrain code here.
12. Scripts Scripts are groups of operations that are callable from other operation blocks (triggers, conversations, menus, mission templates, etc) using the call_script operation. -Thanks Effidian
13. Strings I also don't hav much expirience with this, but the tutorial boxes are stored here, and different things that pop up are stored here.
14. Triggers This is the most complicated one. It defines everything from where parties spawn to what quests entail.
15. Troops This is also very complicated an I will go into detail later. You can add new troops here, change thier equiptment and stats, even thier face.

II. In depthItems Side Menu-The Menu on the side shows you every item in the game, select them to edit thier stats.
Name- This is located right under the word Properties. tis is what your objects name will be in game.
Type- This tells the game what proficiency that it will associate with your Item. Set it to what kind of object you want.
Base Cost- This tells the game the base cost of the object, that is before adding stuff like modifiers.
Weight-determines the objects ingame weight
Head Armor- Tells the game how much armour to your head the item gives yo. leave this at zero unless you are making a helmet.
Leg Armor- tells the game how much leg protection the item gives. Leave at blank unless making boots or armor that also protects legs.
Body Armor- Tells the game how much body protection the Item gives. Leave at zero unless making armor.
Durability-Not sure what this does at the moment, But if your making a melee weapon just set it around 25,000, as it crashes if you dont.
Requirement- varies depending on what your making, for melee weapons, armors, and crossbows it says how much strength is required to be able to use it. with bows and thrown weapons its power draw and power throw respectivly.
Swing Damage- how much the base swing damage is. leave empty if making armor, bows, or a thrusting weapon.
Swing Type- what kind of damage a swing does.
Thrust Damage- same as Swing damage only applies to thrusting
Thrust Type- what kind of damage a thrust deals.
Speed- varies, in bows and crossbows its reload time. On weapons its attacking speed, on shields its lift speed, does not apply to armor.
Reach- don't edit unless your using a new weapon mesh. how it works is unknown. If your using a vannila mesh just make the reach the same as the other thing that uses it.
Velocity- Only applies to ranged weapons, it controls the speed of the projectile. If its set too high the arrow hit might not register.
Abundance- the ammount it appears in shops, the higher it is the more it will show up.
Attach to- not sure what this does, If someone does know, tell me. My advice is don't mess with it.
Throw type- Only applies to thrown weapons, it determines the animation of the chosen type. Axe makes it throw like the throwing axe, spear makes it throw like the javilin, etc.
