[Idea/Request] MOD/Scenario Editor

[Aquilius]

This is my idea for a editor that can change nearly everything you need in a scenario based mod. This should make it possible to add new civs, units, graphics with only a few clicks. For example if you create a new unit you should be able to choose graphics from a combo box which lists all graphics available. You also should be able to alter all related xml tags and so on. I'm sick of using windows editor and searching for all the files and tags. I can remember the Civ2 Fantastic Worlds editor as a fine Editor. The interface should be something like this and should be able to alter nearly everything which is not hard coded. Any ideas, suggestions, comments?

this would be very much apreiated, its not boring changing the XML files but it is a bit of a drag. I think there are a few basic ones out there, but nothing quite on that scale. look under the utillities forum

The problem with editors is that they are very limited in functionality. Civ 2 and 3 had limited moddability which made making an editor easy. However because of the very open ended nature of xml it would be very hard to make an editor.
