It would make sense if it loaded the Convert files every time they were clicked on (so you can change them without have to reload) but it loads everything up in 1 go.
But I would think that loading 2 (at least) files up (2nd file being loaded multiple times in most scripts) would slow the server starting process.
I am currently rewriting every script to do away with the Convert Folder apart from for use with NPC's that use common #SAY sections. i.e. all Weapon guys will load up the standard script from the 01_Weapon_Stnd.txt file but inside each NPC's main file will have different details, i.e. Selling Different weapons, doing different quests etc.
This should make the total file size of the Envir folder alot smaller (no real benefit) and will make it alot easier to read the various scripts without having to load up loads of different text files to follow a script through. I made the Lotto system completely English (real English) for Xtreme and I had to load 9 documents up in 1 go to follow it all through, seemed completely idiotic way of working UNLESS it provided some so far unseen benefit.
Another benefit I have thought of is being able to change the language of the files without having to sift through loads of scripts or even having to understand them, the glitch in that way of thinking is that there are loads of scripts that do not use the Convert Folder and therefore everything would have to be checked anyway.
Anyway, just some thoughts, anyone else?
