Yes, there are a few:
- Notepad
- Notepad++
- Eclipse
- PythonWin
- PyScripter
They all need 1 extra component to work:
you
If you want to generate(create) quests, you have to code them

thanks...i kinda figured...i asked because i was googling quest coding guides, that explained what the codes actually did. I only found one guide so far and the author of it said put this here put this here, this here, and this here, but he didn't explain why you put those thing in those places. and while i was searching for guides came across a tool that someone had created...it looked interesting, it was a quest generator but seems to have some problems it is still under construction. I figured i'd rather code it myself than to figure out why this guys tool is not working. thats an extra headache i don't want....lol.
I really do want to learn how to code the stuff myself, but i need to find a good learning resource. I have ton of ideas i want to implement, and once i understand what codes do, and what i'm limited to i can do these things

Its simple to learn. Read other Quests Code and check how they work ingame. If you are Interessed in special features some quests already have, just locate the code and use it in your Quest. Jython is easy to understand and use. If you dont know what some code does, try looking into Java Sources where all those Methods useable in Jython are implemented.

Also, if you lookup a forum member called Rin4A(custom datapack mods, NPC buffer gracia), he has links to some nice Python tutorials in his signature. (Jython = Python with a java core, in case you didnt know
)
