RatBZEdit - Yet another map editor, only made with Python!
I am working on a multi-platform BZFlag map editor made with Python and wxPython. It is still in development, and is not yet able to open or save files. Despite these setbacks, I am working on it almost every day, and any help would be greatly appreciated.

Ratfink, this is very exciting sounding
There is 1 thing that is more important than everything, and that's distribution . Either make sure it's easy for everybody to install when it's in a working condition, or make a nice guide.
There was an earlier Python editor, and it was extremely hard to install and if you didn't install right it was buggy.
Thanks for your hard work!

Multi-Platform? Does that mean it works on any OS? And I used Winzip to extract the file I was expecting a easy install. Perhaps you can find some software that makes installations for you like Windows Installer. And maybe you can name it Ratfink Map builder Beta1 or something like that. But if can and if you think you want some other people to critic your builder I would recommend finding a software that will allow you to make an installation process. (like the same software bzflag used to install bzflag or whatever) But other than that I'm really exited and I know you did a good job. But while I'm waiting for an easy install... does the builder have any textures like iBZedit? I think iBZedit is my favorite map builder.

udied, to give you a kinder answer, yes. You install the python interpreter to run python programs, just like you install a JVM to run Java programs and web applets. Go to http://www.python.org/download/ and get the windows installer, then you should be able to run his program.
Thank you Mets. That was kinder and very polite. ok thanks for the info. I was just wondering.Mets wrote:udied, to give you a kinder answer, yes.
