      Ok, I'm an intermediate plugin dood for EV NOVA, and (although I've never released my own plugin to public) I'm working on a HUGE expansion. Being lazy and doin all the easy stuff first (like concept art, galactic maps), I've never really given the actual development much thought and, well all I can say is HELP! THINGS KEEP CRASHING! CAN'T DO THIS OR THAT! CAN'T PUT SYSTEMS IN PLACES, CAN'T MAKE OUTFITS - HELLLLLP! Ok, I understand HOW to do it, the concepts fine. I understand all about rescources and stuff like that. I don't know or care about scripting (I don't really think I need it). I've used ResEdit and got fed up - i switched to Mission Computer. But anyway, I can think of NUMEROUS setbacks and probs, here a small list -

      - My shan (ship anim) thinks don't work.
      - NovaTools does NOT show a thumbnail of my shan - grr..
      - In mission computer, I can't put systems too far away (somethin like 400pxs) or they dissappear.
      - My outfits are none existent - grr.
      - My sprites wont load.

      that's the first few... I have loads of em. ANY HELP WILL BE MORE THAN WELCOME!

      __Unfortunatley I can't release the content of my plug, but if you send my an e-mail, I'll tell you all my troubles!

      THANKS AGAIN!

      Well, you can send me an email and describe your problems. I'm doing a plugin myself, so I know about some of these troubles as well.
