NWN2 is using the Aurora toolset as a base to work off of, correct? That means at least not having to re-invent the wheel as far as the actual development tool to make the game, correct?

Wrong...and uh, wrong. Please see the "NWN2 Toolset and Custom Content" forum for the "right" answers to these questions.

More: It's not our FAQ, it's Rhomal's. While we "started with" the "Aurora Engine" many things have changed. The toolset has been complpetely rewritten...from scratch. Hence, there is no underlying Aurora Tool code or anything of that nature. The tool that will be used to "build" the game will be brand new. Electron is the new rendering engine and the same goes for it. It's 100% stand alone in the sense that it uses nothing from Aurora. Hope that clarifies..
