    I didn't know this, is actually amazing. There is an always boring part to me... merging the player.config
    And now more than ever since they made the merging even more troublesome.

    I thought about that, but there is literally so many possibilities for player.config.patch files. Personally I use this website to generate patch code for me, then I just format it and toss it into the required file

    You should be wary of that site. It doesn't handle complex patches well.
    Especially nested arrays. Instead of giving you a proper patch - it uses overwrite instead which would cause incompatibility with other mods.

    A tool to create collision polys would be really great. I've used Grapher so far but its not really the best way to create collision polys.
    I've created a mockup how a good poly editor could look like:

    Yeah, I encountered that a while ago. Instead of using anything nested I just do it one section at a time. Takes up a lot of time but it's good for double checking.

    Writing it by hand is probably faster in the long run - I am planning on rewriting my tutorial to a more diagramatic colorful version where it will be a bit more easier to understand.
    But next few days busy with new years and all.

    Maybe a Editor to create your own craftable blocks from Ingods and other Materials?
    (I dream of building an Background Gundam Image, but havn't found the right colorful blocks now...)

    Oh god, I would do that but I absolutely hate dealing with reading/writing to image files in Java. It's something I've never gotten too involved in and I have almost no clue what I'm doing in there D:

    Actually I kinda liked Crystan's idea and started doing something on Java aswell. I'm going slow since I'm doing a project myself and helping with another one, but It'll be done early January!

    Nice! If you want any help shoot me a P.M., I can help with some other stuff besides writing to images.
