Files not exec'd

Just an oddity rather than a bug I suppose...

The files PlayerMethods.cs and DrillMethods.cs are not exec'd alongside GameMethods.cs in Game.cs

This is in a project that has been created as per the TDN starter tutorial for the kit. I don't really see why they should not and this can cause some headache for the novice user if they are following the TDN tutorial.

I would go and update the TDN tutorial but I consider this to be something that should be fixed at the source really.

Craig, the reason that I left them out is mainly because they are game specific scripts. These scripts only contain functions that are "callbacks" from the various behaviors used in the kit. I do understand the headache that it can cause and I will update TDN, but for generalisations sake, they shouldn't be executed by default.

Phillip,

I appreciate your reasoning and as you said you'll update the TDN tutorial so all is good ;)
