Track howto video

@ joe, you're right. if everything can be placed in blender easily, through (append or link -> link) then it shouldn't really matter. but i'm still not 100% convinced that will be the best way to handle shared objects. it may increase the need to download large blend files full of the shared data to build a track or to import every object you want to use in your track, which can have the side affect of making shared objects less quick/easy to add to your track. so i'm not too much in favor of that approach.

the track_editor/in-game_editor maybe a good idea. but keeping them in a separate file could still be good for dealing with the blender export script. that way broader revisions could be done on the track geometry. perhaps building a large height-mapped country-side to replace the mountains in the skybox. without affecting the additions you've manually typed in the objects file. a smarter export script could work around it. but i would guess it would be easier to have it load from multiple files. bear in mind that almost all my programming experience is in c, so i'm mis-trustful of blender scripts because they're in pyth...some language that's not c.
