Hm.. visual compiling does sound pretty cool but it doesnt soundlike it would be worth allof the time and effort it would take to incorperate.

I think that the standard Qed Interface would be fine. Curves and rippled ground would be really anice feature. Say liek I want a large feild or something that is a large area with a lot of bummpy terrain. Ground isnt allways perfectly flat. If there was a way to put in a large flat editable mesh that you could stretch and pull sections off it up or down to make hills and holes, it would be really nice. I know I''m not explaining very well.

That as far as i can see would be an increadably usefull feature, not that I''m saying it would work, but it would be nice.

um.. Oh yeah, also a custome brush window. It would be really cool if you could open up a window and be able to create a brush in wire frame, and then import it into the editor.

Um.. maybe brush animation viewer. If you could set a path for a brush to follow when triggered, And then be able to veiw it moving in wireframe and in 3d. This would be really usefull for setting up explsions and moving objets.

Speaking of moving objects: rotating brushes.

Another thing would be that you could select a face of a brush and apply a decal over a texture. Possible even move it around or ratate it into the position you want it in.

There should be an option to center a texture on a brush, and more importantly, scale to fit a brush automatically.

Yeah Yeah, i know I''m asking for a lot... I''m just throwing out ideas.

let me know whats possible and whats not. I''ll design around it.

OK.. I''ll let you know if i get anymore ideas.
