Note the extra lil button on the 0.50.1.2 when you're on your own world (or have sysop on another world).

Currently you can use this mode to fly around the world (kinda), and theres a quite pleasantly functional pile of stuff to allow you to easily add (and undo) walls, terrain textures, trees (sorta) and stuff like that..
Its all very wip, but quite nice so far i reckon.
Hopefully the UI is neat enough to make using it to mostly straightforward. One thing worth mentioning, perhaps, is that everything u do in the world editor is added to the (clientside) 'edit buffer' .. it isnt sent to the server until you confirm with the button on the right. Right clicking any of the entries in the edit buffer deletes the change you've made locally - so you can fiddle about adding (then deleting stuff) without worrying about messing with the server map.

Accepting theres still a whole bunch of stuff still left to add (including dynamic terrain modification, buildings & buildzones etc.. not to mention all the top menus, which'll provide lotsa quick n easy helper wizards to make creating a world much much easier).. any thoughts/wishlist requests/bug reports so far?

was just testing it on sabrada making a racetrack.

it seems sometimes when dragging a box on the edge of a cliff, when you place a surface, it'll cover a large area instead of being just where you dragged the box (as if you forogt to clear the start point when doing it on the ground). only had it happen when drawing a box on a concave area (maybe it happens on all slants?), the box seems to stay level with the highest point instead of going with the terrain and thier was a steep drop right against the location whenever it happened.


also, you have to relog after confirming the textures to see them (not a big deal).
