Hi, That also gives me another thought. Yeah, even assuming such an automated feature did exist how on earth would someone automate everything anyway. Part of writing games is to get creative, creat new worlds, new civilizations, and to boldly go where no man has gone before. Grin.
If you are creating a Jedi Knight game and your template for a player class doesn't have force powers like heal, blind, lightning, whatever you are going to have to add it. If you don't know what the code does there is no way you are going to add it. Philip can't realistically think of a template wizard for everything. As for the "Dreamweaver users" I know exactly what you mean. I can't tell you how many times I've read web pages written in Front Page, Dreamweaver, etc and the html is so messy and sloppily written I feel like telling the owner just to delete it and start over from scratch.Especially, when the editor like Front Page uses a lot of non-standard tags for I.E. and don't work with Safari or Firefox. Like "hello, stupid! Not everyone uses Internet Explorer." That's exactly the kind of crap a person has to put up with when dealing with automated wizards.
