A new level editor for the Halo games based on a CSG/Brush workflow, similar to Source/Quake level editing.

The project is still early in development and some core issues need to be worked out. However, it should work as a solid proof of concept for those interested. Pull Requests for new features and bug fixes are welcome!

As much as I love Blender and other dedicated 3D authoring software, I don't find them as fun to use as brush based editors like Hammer for Source. So why not try and bring that to the Halo games now that we have mod tools. As well as hopefully simplifying map creation and streamlining the process.
Mostly for Realtime CSG. The awesome CSG library that's the core of this is tied into Unity, which means I am too!
I was looking at TrenchBroom and a Quake map compiler, but then I wouldn't really have the useful Subtractive Brushes. Plus C# is nice <3
I like to do silly things and creating a new level editor for the old Halo games seemed a bit of a wild and silly thing to do. I figured that seemed like something a Rampant AI would do, so it felt fitting for the name of this.
