Most of the refactoring I am doing is actually leading up to features i plan to implement later.

I guess not: it looks to me like MotherHamster is at least > part of that. Motherhamster is a programming-required python library. HamsterWheel is (will be) the no-programming-required editor interface that accompanies motherhamster. The archetecture of motherhamster/hamsterwheel is totally different from the OHR. The editor is built right into the the game. I'll try to get some demos up there soonish. --- James Paige _______________________________________________ Ohrrpgce mailing list ohrrpgce@lists.motherhamster.org http://lists.motherhamster.org/listinfo.cgi/ohrrpgce-motherhamster.org
