LoadPlayerScript() function in embparser.cpp

Code:

	filename += "/player.pl";
	string packagename = "player";
	packagename += "_";
	packagename += zone;

build of the quests\zone\player.pl directory.. tries to eval it

Code:

try {
		perl->eval_file(packagename.c_str(), filename.c_str());
	}

then if it doesn't load,

Code:

if(!isloaded(packagename.c_str()))
	{
		filename = "quests/";
		filename += QUEST_TEMPLATES_DIRECTORY;
		filename += "/player.pl";

try templates. So if I'm not corrected, if a /<zone>/player.pl exists, it stops the parser from loading /templates/player.pl?

curiousity question, if I were to just take this code, and make it so it loads both player.pl, what would be wrong with that?
