RE: Issue with US troops
Sorry. Didn't mean to ignore the thread, just busy with RL issues.
You guys can certainly make the fix to your own scenarios and reupload them with the same name, so no problem there I assume? So the issue is what about other designers scenarios?
Are you going to take, for instance, HSL's scenarios and make the fix, then have one of us FTP them up without getting his permission? You know I can't do that. Yes, I could (I think) find all the CS scenarios in whatever directory Raz has them in and download them, then find a way to get them to you guys and you can bulk fix them, but again, not without the original designers permission. So I think for now, unless Mike West disagrees, that's going to be a dead issue.
My suggestion is to make the fix to all the stock scenarios provided on the current 2.0. That alone should take awhile. Post on the site to designers that you're willing to help them make fixes to their own files, they can reupload them with the same name, overwriting the bad ones. Provide instructions (if you're willing) to those who would prefer to do it themselves.
Jason, as a site officer, can contact Raz when he's ready, to bulk upload all the fixed stock scenarios, overwriting the old bad ones.
I'm certainly open to suggestions and thoughts and I think it's time for designers to weigh in. Would you want your scenarios touched, even with good intentions, without first giving your permission?
This is pretty much what I said to Mike and he might disagree with me, but I thought this should be an open discussion as well, so if you disagree with me, state your case.
