Introduction
This tool has been done with the aim to make the life of scenario creator easier.
My main goal was to have an easy interface in order to to avoid lot of file manipulation.
Currently the software made his job correctly, more features will be added in futures releases :

Merging location.csv file with scenario.csv file
Quick launch of the game with your working scenario pre-selected ingame
Management of battlescript
Peer unit highlight on the map
Duplication of existing scenario
New mod/scenario wizard

About debug mode
Any scenario will be unplayable while this mode is activated, it must be only set for scenario conception , see the sdk for more informations
Actvate this mode is not necessary to manipulate scenrio with this software
Activation of this mode will write instantly the sowgb.ini file present in work folder with theses settings : DbgLvl=1, NoAI=1, AlphaOmega=1, other settings remain untouched
