True that. It seems as the development side of Graal as a whole has a giant bite taken out of it... Alot of the old talented people are gone(quit) or missing... (We're still looking for Spencer on 2k1 @_@; ) The 'newbies' don't want to take the time to learn something new.

Big loss. Graal needs quality, not quantity.

There needs to be a balanced mix of both. It's great to have flawless levels, utterly efficent scripts, and gorgeous graphics, but it's kind of pointless if you are only getting those once in a blue moon. We're having the same problem on 2k1... Apparently we have the quality thing down, we're just missing the quantity part.

I'm not talking about the work that's produced, I'm talking about the developers.

Anyway, bad developers produce bad work. If it is to progress, Graal needs good work to put into its flagship worlds. The little playerworlds don't really matter as much.

Ah, ok. Well, then we not only have to worry about good work, but good work ethic and the like... I believe one of the problems is that there are so many playerworlds. Stefan just basicly lets any Joe-Schmo get rent a playerworld... I don't blame him though, cash is cash.

Scripters are sooo much harder to find then Level builders. Level builders will flock if you put a nice public showcase out there.

There's a difference between "level makers" and what I call "level artists". The content has to be appealling to the eye as well as fuctional. It's part of the whole package.

True. But there is also a difference between decent and great scripters. People can know how to use chipset's outside of graal, but there are many commands on GScript you must learn by studying it. Therefore it is nearly impossible to find outside-of-graal people to help.

Learning the commands really isnt the hard part, it's being able to use them logically to accomplish something. GScript is similar to C++ apparently. So, if you can script in C++, I doubt it will take long to master GScript... But that's just me talking. I can't script worth squat.
