Anyone working on a modding tool yet?

[Drax]

I was wondering if anyone has started work on a modding utility for the data files in starfury - like the editors for se4. Or should I just start up VB and make on myself?

Sj has a slot modder and a store modder out; I don't know of anything else.

I have a nifty VB library of functions for working with MM style datafiles if you want.

You do? VB 6, VB.NET, or some other Version? Post them, I might be able to use those... nah, I never get anything done

Most of it is meant for dealing with one-liner strings from the text files.
For example,
X$ = addvalue(X$,n)
This looks for the := and then adds n to the number it finds there. Non-numbers or words count as zero and are changed into just n.

"Get/Set first pos number" is for those "Ability # name := blah blah" type lines.
The "Get/Set nth value" functions is a generalization of the previous, and is great for working on the damage at range line.
