Yes I know it requires a lot of time that is why I have the Age of Freedom 
project. GUI on the server, in my opinion, is nice for people that aren't 
techies (though I am one, I like GUI's more than CLI interfaces) The XML 
advantage I think is that it can be both edited in an editor and through 
code, and it is pretty easy to read, and also good for maps (I have other 
projects that are developing maps in XML) Thrown objects are those such as 
catapaulted rocks, lightning bolts, etc.
