Official editing tools.

I think this great game owes much part of its popularity to Module making. The community has already made a great work in tutorials, tools, modules, etc. so I think its time to develop official editing tools/instructions that let the mod community work in a more comfortable and fast way, specially in fields that the community has advanced less, like map editing, particles, etc. for benefit of the modders, players, and people who doesn't met the game yet.

They don't even look at the forums. At least since 2009.
It would be great, of course, but usually they reply us 1 year later, what makes me a bit bitter about all this.


As an example I requested copy-paste functionality in the In-Game Editor at the Bugtracker, and they said that would be in the next game...
Seriously? Is such a complex time-waster compared to the benefits for all their mappers and the entire community?

Also they basically restricted the modding in their newer game. Without giving us the module system until I personally emailed Sich asking for it (Thanks xeno for the suggestion).

Just a quick indignation post to show you how the things are.
They aren't indie, not anymore.

They haven't regularly looked at the forum since at least .808. We get bits and pieces now and then. It's not that they're not indie any more, it's just simply bad habit.
