Platform requests

[Gunny]

Hi there,

 

Quick message from me to let everybody be aware of the following principles in adding platforms to the HUD4:

-Platform inclusion will depend on time I can dedicate to database edition

-From above come the following: the less time I spend in researches, the more platforms I can add at once.

-Reality has been the keyword of HUD since the beginning, HUD4 makes no derogation to the principle. If for reason of missing data I can't add a platform, it will be merely refused or delayed if I'm convinced there will be such platform in Harpoon Master Annexes in a "near" future.

-Some database integrate scores of platforms at once, but at a cost: realism. To request a platform, please be sure you'll need it for a scen you're thinking about, not just for the sake of having this platform in the DB. DB editing is a long term project, and sometimes need "complete overhaul" (new rules...).

 

Thanks for your attention

For my part, what I will do is go back to the ones I requested and mark the ones I would like to see soon because I've got a scenario idea, etc. (I imagine other people can do the same thing...even if I suggested a platform, it might actually be more useful to someone else.) If I don't add a comment like that, it means that I simply thought the platform might be useful someday and should be included, but there is no rush. Obviously, that might change for a few platforms as I get new ideas. In any event, I hope this will help.
