How do you organize your work with GS?

Hello,
My question specifically is on organization of actors and behaviors that if not organize, can get pretty hard to track. I know you can rename rules, use tags, etc... I'm curious to know what people's workflow is like. Do you write on paper first like a flow chart, etc...?

Thanks,
Doron

Use tags to group actors (e.g. all HUD-related actors go into a "HUD" tag) so that I can use the drop-down menu to view only those actors.

Group and/or name the rules (not just "Enemy movement" but "Enemy moving right slowly").

Use notes to remind myself of special situations, math formulas, Otherwise behaviors, etc.

I also use a Notes actor that is just a yellow square that I place at the top of the actors pane and fill with Note behaviors that are more general in nature (e.g. credits, version details, outstanding technical issues, etc.).

Organize? Hmm.. that would be nice.

Thanks. Allready started a game and it is a mess in term of organization. I hope to get the game organized.

Thanks,
