I was prepared to keep an open mind until I actually got my hands on the game and the toolset. Now that I have it, I absolutely HATE this toolset - it's the most unintuitive thing ever. Even with NWN 1 you could dive in and work out how to use things - the wizards were easy to use. With this one you need to read all the help files to understand how to do even basic things like lay tiles, delete tiles, create areas, etc. Maybe it's a familiarity issue, and maybe it's designed for advanced users, but even just looking at it is daunting.

Some questions I have:

1. I want to lay out a normal interior tile (no corners with pillars, just normal floor. How do I do that? There's an option for open floor but all I see is black when I lay it down.

2. How do I scroll up and down and sideways? In the old toolset you had those arrow buttons to use. I can't work out how to do it with this one.

3. How do I lay creatures down?

4. How do I create items?

I realise these are elementary questions, but I'm not finding the toolset intuitive at all.
