Modeller can now save and load the model meta data, including * a description * a list of tags * a list of connectors At first I was leaning towards including this data in the actual model file, but that would have required to move editor specific stuff into the engine, so meta data is now in its own file. This is kept in the same directory as the model, with the same name, but a different file extension (.xtra). The file is optional, so models without meta-data can still be loaded by modeller, I was briefly thinking about storing them in a directory parallel to models/, but then there's the danger of renaming the model file, but forgetting about the meta data. So what's this all about? * The description, I honestly have no idea ;-). But cirrus requested that, so I assume he'll know where he wants to see that. (Maybe as a tooltip of mapedit's entity list?). * The tags are added to the list of automatically generated tags and can be used for filtering (and grouping) models in mapedit (once implemented), * The connectors will enable mapedit to automatically suggest matching models and to adjust the grid so they can be easily placed next to each other. So as the next tasks on my list are making use of the meta-data in mapedit, Will probably start with the connectors, as those should yield the biggest improvement in comfort and usability.
