This is getting closer and closer to Forge. It would be cool to modify the spawn rates and everything. And move gametype stuff. This. Will be amazing.

CTF flags, KotH circle markers, Oddballs, Teleporter entrance and exits. Things like that.

dont see the point of a movable menu... i figured you could use the console or something to switch to the menus and moving mode, or hold a certain key to bring them up, or press a hotkey to select items on a menu.

focus on the basics first.

i speak for all when i say: WANT.

The menu is movable so a user can put it where he wants. I'm thinking about having 3 different menus, so probably make the current smaller and dup it. menu 1 will have editor options, for now it will only have Scenario editor and Object editor. menu 2 will have the scenario types(player spawns, mpflags, etc) or the object type. menu 3 will display info on the current object. how does this sound? I'll make it tonight and show video tomorrow so u can see it in action

movable isn't a good idea....

what you need is an interface similar to that in Crysis...but instead of weapon and ability option, you have your modding options.

Movable is a good idea and I've never played crysis.

What he means is just have a certain button you push to make the menu pop up, rather than have it up the whole time and making it movable... Like esc for the menu in Halo.
Very cool though.

The menu's will be collapsable and closable and have hotkeys to pull them up again. =p

Good. I love the way the Garry's Mod menu system works.

Id be glad to provide models for things like player spawns and MP flags.

Very nice.

Will this also have yaw, pitch, and roll capabilities?

You could also make it so when you go into "Forge" mode the weapon disapears so its just the mouse, with full moving around abilities
