Interested in autogenerating neutrals?
 
One small problem I've had when making missions is that the step of including random neutrals in the mission is tedious to me. As a result, I never quite finish most of my missions.

Therefore, it's my intention to make a small utility, primarily for my own use but available to everyone, such that you can create a "bogus" object within the game, and give it a name that specifies how you want them generated. Then, you hand the thing over to a small app I will make, and then it changes your mission (creating a backup!), replacing those "object specifiers" with numerous neutrals, depending on exactly what you specified.

It's currently in a planning stage, but I want comments on the design already now - that way I might be able to avoid pitfalls or inflexibility later. Now is also the time to submit wishlist items for such an application...

I use each time all neutrals DW give me on my scenarios.
~ around 12
then a dynamic group to choose some of them each time (min 5 max 7 for example)
I use to do that only after I made all the other stuff, including triggers.
Generally I need around 10 to 15 mn to complete this.
I'm not sure if you are not going to do something very difficult and a bit useless ...
