Hi,

I'm not a military guy, so when I see a plane loadout in the base or on the carrier, it would be nice if I could click on the weapon name and open the database, instead of noting the name of weapon or plane on a scratch paper, and go in the database for all kind of weapons and unit in each scenario.

Thanks if it can be done, it is really killing me spending so much time opening and closing the same windows.

+1 to this. It would save a lot of time.

Yup, +1 from me too. However, I would consider this a lower priority than doing fixes to the database and adding more features to the scenario editor, which is being discussed in another thread.

+1 I've been working for the Navy since 1976 and I find myself doing the same thing. It's impossible to remember every weapon that every nation has. This would be a very useful feature.

Hi Guys

We can't hardcode any weblink in the game because the web isn't that static (URL's can change) and we can't really pay wikipedia for use of their site. What we are going to do is add more in game links so weapons entries go to the database viewer etc.

Mike

Thanks for the reply Mike. I didn't realize you'd have to pay Wikipedia for the links

. In-game links would be great.

Yeah how about an internal one to the database would be very useful mate.

It's on our requests poll guys, you can up-vote it there to increase its priority.

Thanks!
