Hmmm, perhaps this can be better organized...

Just spitballing here, this might not even be possible...
But as I see it, we've got a lot of worlds covering the same ground. Every server makes a system NPC from scratch, makes a tileset from scratch, makes new ganis from scratch...
...and ultimately wind up making the same damn thing...
...would things get done faster if everyone was cooperating?
It's a lofty goal, but here's the theory-
Everyone chips in and works on the same damn Generic System NPC. A bad example, but let's pretend nobody has one and we all have to make one.
Someone focuses on movement, someone focuses on hit detection, etcetera...
Someone else goes back over, moves the static values in Movement to Constant Float/Short numbers (instead of x-0.5, it's x-XOFFSET) so it'll work with their Massive Ganis too...
Ultimately they all wind up with a system NPC that, not only can they share, they can offer it to starting out playerworlds too and save them the quagmire of Developing A Scripted System...plus, if there's a change or an update to the scripting engine, it only needs to get updated once. Classic uses GenericSys v1.0, Era updates it to GenericSys v1.1, Maloria likes it and uses v1.1, Classic decides to keep with v1.0...

And another thing. Assuming my information's correct, why do we even weigh down the servers with distributing graphics? I mean hell, probably the vast majority of the files are duplicated amongst the servers...at least those using the same ganis...I say move all of the downloads to load-screen "patches", push 'em onto a parallel server, and just alias all the duplicates...save space, save overhead, save lag...plus it'd make a simple registry for people who want to say "Hey, that was my tileset!" - who uploaded it first? Exactly.
