I'm using SBT 0.13 on a fairly complex project. Not sure why it wouldn't work for you. What kind of project is it? Any specific frameworks you're using that are causing compilation errors?

Play2 pulling it in via SBT resolution so I don't have it "installed" on my development machine.

Are you doing "sbt idea" or "play idea?" From what I recall, "sbt idea" was broken, while doing it using the play launcher works, as they have some broken dependencies.

I use sbt idea. I can try play, but it would be great if it just worked.

Thing is, it does just work...if you follow the directions Play gives you once you create a new project. Namely, to use their play wrapper around sbt.

(I am not saying this is a good idea, but I am saying it "just works".)
