There should be support for creating and editing decals in AresEd.

Add the ability to suggest parameters for the standard message reward.

It should be possible to edit the messenger property class.

Add support for trigger on material (like 'above trigger'). This is a CEL 
request.

There should be support for editing and placing map nodes in AresEd. These can 
then be used for various things (like for example triggers with map nodes).

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Switch to Foliage Mode
2. Select a type of Foliage
3. Start painting with mouse

The expected output is that the foliage density should increase. However, 
nothing happens instead.

Add a way to visually see and edit triggers (pctrigger property class).

Marker node for 3D view (selected object) sometimes becomes visible in entity 
mode after save.

The name of the terrain mesh is currently hardcoded in AresEd/Ares. This needs 
to be more flexible.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. aresed

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Now it's black rectangle. Expected output is 3d view on the right.

The CEL inventory system supports 'loot packages'. There should be a way to 
edit these in AresEd.

Allow scaling of labels for objects that are far away.

In the entity and quest editor there are many cases where an entity picker 
would be handy so you don't have to type the entity name all the time.

After deleting a reward or a trigger the editor still contains the old values 
from that reward/trigger even if it appears as if another reward/trigger is 
selected.

AresEd needs a settings dialog with (at least) the following information:
- Default size/maximimze status of window
- Rendermanager from CS (deferred/unshadowed/...)
- Popup message window on error (bool)
- Display labels by default
- Label colors
- Enable camera light and edit light settings
- Default physics/opcode world
- ...

Many games prefer sound. AresEd should support that.

In some situations the connections between 'newstate' rewards and states are 
wrong in the sense that they are not properly interpolated. This depends on 
resolution and some unknown factors.

Make resources uneditable if they are in an uneditable asset

It should be possible to let the spawn property class spawn at the position of 
the associated mesh.

In the quest sequence editor it should be possible to move up/down sequence 
operators.

The subject basically says it all. We need to convert the CEGUI user interface 
in AresEd to WX.

It should be possible to set classes on individual entities.

There are a number of predefined classes in the entity editor. Whenever class 
values can be input there should be a popup/combo with these to make it easier 
to enter them (for example, the changeclass reward) 

AresEd immediatelly crashes if you press ctrl-p when nothing is loaded (i.e. 
right after startup).

Make it possible to define default parameters for quests

This isn't a code review, but rather a process review. The artist has questions 
on how best to set up art for use in the game, such as, how should I specify 
the 1st camera? do I need to specify a 3rd person camera, where should I set 
the origin point on a player character? where on a bird? and so forth. 

I don't have a definitive set of questions at this time, but Ares will be a 
better product, and it will enable me to write artist-friendly docs, if we 
confer at this stage. 

I'd like to have a place (like a forum) to post questions which can be answered 
at leisure and serves as a record. This applies to the writers as well.

Currently AresEd no longer crashes at exit but this is because of a hacky 
woraround where AresEd simply does exit(0). This avoids the failing cleanup.

For the dynamic objects as defined in the pre-baseline game file it would be 
great if they could have some global UUID system so that you can make changes 
to that game file (i.e. add mods and so on) without (seriously) affecting saved 
game files. The current system is very brittle as it depends on the unique ID's 
(32-bit integers) that are assigned sequentially when objects are created.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Select a number of items
2. Copy them to the clipboard
3. Paste them
4. Only the wireframe for the first object is shown.

Solution: show the wireframe for all objects as they will appear when pasted.

Currently the Spawn message in ares controller only supports spawning at the 
location of the player.

The sanity checker doesn't recognize $parameters in the property property class 
and thus fails to see that the parameters are needed in the parent template.
