Who will be making mods/utilities for TPF?

Lets say that the game is everything it is promising to be (ie; sim engine just as nice as the screen shots) who here will be making utilities for the game? There is one in particular that I would love to see. Since the game will not be recording team vs. team records, for example....

Chicago Bears vs.....Team:-- Wins:-- Loses:-- Ties:-- PCT:
GB 15 10 2 .657
NYJ 9 7 0 .858
Dal 10 10 1 .480



*the best example I could think of*

Also,maybe each score for every game could be tracked as well. May sound like alot but it would still be nice for historical reasons.

I know that the game would need to be released first in order for this to be done but is this something that would be easy to do and would some be willing to do it?

Won't know if any utility is possible until the game is released.

I don't think very many guys here are modders (with a few exceptions such as VPI97).

We're more "users" than "dealers".

I had talked to Erich (or somebody-can't remember who) about this and appearently TPF will be very 3rd party friendly.

Edit:
spelling

Well, from my perspective, it will depend on if I like the gamne or not and if I find anything lacking from it. That is why there is a TCY Helper. From what I've seen so far from the screenshots there doesn't seem like there'll be much of a need for utilities.

Fido, Im glad you posted

Like I wrote in the first post, the game will not be keeping Team vs Team records. This is something I feel that should be included but wasn't. However, that is where utility makers come in.

Yeah, but like I said, its based of of what *I* perceive as missing. I don't have the time to make utilities for other people's enjoyment. I make them because I want them then I share them with others. Frankly, I don't see the need for traking vs stats over the long term rather than simply a "that's interresting", so that in and of itself does not merit a commitment.
