I also believe we should think about those who are just starting out, those who dont have the experience.
Isn't that where these forums are for? I mean, ppl who just get started ask a lot of question as we can help them here.

For pre-made engines, I released also an engine ppl can use.

ps 1. I vote "YES" for using pre-made engines
ps 2. wasn't this discussion already at the previous compo, so we have some sort of dedja vu?

EDIT: Those who pre-made an engine could also just "copy there code" and pretend nothing happend, so ppl always WILL use pre-made stuff...(a whole or part of an engine/content/whatever)
