    Here are today's Neverwinter Nights forum highlights. Please take into account that these are only single parts of various threads and should not be taken out of context. Bear in mind also that the posts presented here are copied as-is, and that any bad spelling and grammar does not get corrected on our end.

    Don Moar, Tools Programmer

    Function Completion: Enigmatic, start typing the name of a function, press [F2] to get the list of possible functions based on what you've already typed, select the one you want and then press [Enter].

    Georg Zoeller, Designer

    HotU Toolset: Sorry, I can't comment on most things discussed here. You can be sure there will be some quite major improvements and feature additions to toolset and scripting language coming with HotU and I think there is even more planned by the Live Team, but we are not ready to discuss those features yet. Btw, did you know you can press F2 to get a visual studio like command auto completion feature in the script editor?

    Quote: Why did Bioware neglect the z-axis anyway? If nobody minds me asking.

    Every game has a limited feature set and, simplified, a 3rd dimension adds 1/3rd more work for level design, artists, etc.. Given NWNs somewhat isometric view (probably inherited from BG), not doing a 3rd dimension makes sense. Its sad, but thats a reality. Not to forget that NWN was planned during a period of time where 2D RPGs (BG, Planescape, Arcanum, Diablo etc) were state-of-technology. Thats my guess on that
