Yes, I did take a look at it..

I wasn't able to tell from the documents whether the Phantasmal
implementation would allow for "standard" coded rooms and objects, or if
they needed to be in the "buildertool" (whatever) format...

Personally I'm a hardcore LPCer from before MudOS and it'd be more
comfortable for me to hand hack my rooms and objects, but my inexperienced
wizards (I am getting them from a hardcore RPG background)  would
certainly like your tool.
