So... I used to make my own small games based on HHS+, but I can't for the life of me get a new world to work as there seems to be alot of stuff needed that is not in the "template" school... I'm guessing I'm just out of practice as it took me a while to realise I had no paperdoll handlers, images, locations or anything, but even after adding those the game throws a bunch of errors (like halting init due to multiple instances of the same person or something).

In short, is there (or could there be) a totaly bare-boned school folder that people could use to build their own worlds, with the basics (generic adult/student PD handlers, a starting event and location and such)?

Afaik, "Template school" scenario is not up to date right now. So there are no easy way to get it running quick. However we do plan to fix it (unfortunately no estimates on that).
