A tool that would ask a very long list of questions (maybe 50). The first question might ask what kind of script you want. The next question would be determined by the answer to the first and so on. There might be thousands of questions in the database but only 50 or so would actually be asked. And there would probably be tens/hundreds of thousands of possible combinations (I haven't done the maths). In the end the tool would generate a script based on all the questions and your answers. Ambitious, I know. Maybe crazy. Maybe moronic. It was just a thought. We thickos need an easy way to create totally custom scripts without actually scripting. The Visual Lua thing looks good too.

there are easier ways, something more like the visual lua editor from avram that skips all the other stuff and focuses only on the core commands
knowing you want something to move forward and clicking a button that says move forward is easy enough, i wouldnt want to fill out a survey for that

Totally agree.
Although being "old school" I prefer deal with myself, so I can learn more and improve my skills.
Anyway I am agree, save time specially in a big project, is quite useful.

I can't seem to get to grips with Avram's visual Lua. I think it has potential though. Maybe it just needs expanding.
