Hi Folks

This may be of interest for those of you struggling with the OPT -
A mission building tool with a graphical interface to display nodal relationships.

Francois has publicly announced it's just about ready -

If you ever tried making your own missions, you'll have noticed that it is NOT easy. With Jim's new editor and above all his User Interface, it is still 'work', but made a lot easier !

The JK Mission Editor will be FREEWARE for the 'base version', and a more extended version, including MSI installer, will be for sale via FSAddon Publishing.

Check out some of the demo's Jim made:
