I think the issue is b0b0, I've spent a lot of time developing bits and bobs for Vice City, so I'm pretty clear about what it can do. When this topic came up IJs refered me to it, and I made a small app to see how well it would work. The conclusion was that it would be a massive undertaking to implement fully, and that there would always be problems with items being in the way of the predefined paths. I don't think you have any real basis to critise what suggestions I "deny". I've spent a huge ammount of time developing some seemingly easy features of our new core (thats weeks, working 18 hours a day). One thing that people may not realise is that this new core, is tottaly new, and as no-one has any idea about its feature set, many suggestions are unneccessary. I think that once the new core is released, we'll see the suggestions we recieve changing a lot.
