Hello people, I want to make a giant compilation of tutorials for how to do a bunch of stuff in MMF2. I will be writing out how to do cool things, but am open to anyone helping out if they want. I realize I'm not the most qualified person to be writing this, but I think I understand enough about MMF2 to be helpful. The only problem I'm running into is ideas on what to write about.

As of yet, I have these topics so far that I either have done or am working on/ plan to work on soon: Introduction, Alterable values, Groups of events, Arrays, Ini files, Fast loops, Collision, Basic AI, Advanced AI, Paralaxxing, Cutscenes, Pathfinding, Particle effects, Physics engine, Online gaming (mooclick), Mode 7, and OpenGL.

I am aware that tutorials exist to teach many of these subjects, but they are all written by different people and I would like everything to be intertwined rather than patched together. Anyway, I think I'm missing some things here, so please post any suggestions for topics or anything you have personally been wondering about and would like to see in this ocmpilation.

 
If you put a million monkeys at a million keyboards, one of them will eventually write a Java program.
The rest of them will write Perl programs.

Before you go about reinventing the wheel, I recommend you send a message to Chris Burrows. He had been working on a project some time back regarding just the same thing you're talking about. Maybe if you two hit it off, you can collaborate?

I haven't heard of this, can you post a link to where he was talking about it?

The tutorials on Chris' website are very high quality, but what I was thinking was more expansive, covering more topics than he seems to have worked on. However, if he is willing to, I would love to work with him.
