We had various requests for new (sub)subforums over the past year(s). Quite a few
people seem to have problems in unerstanding the current setup and deciding in what
subforum to post their topic. Which is not that weird, as there is quite some overlap
between the current subforums and some topics do not fit well in any of them at all.
Therefore, I would like to collect ideas/opinions about a re-organisation of the (sub)
forums. Feel free to post everything that comes up in your mind. I will go through all
requests/ideas and together with Curt and Stuart decide on a new setup.
My proposal is the following. Between brackets you will find a very summier description
of the subjects that should be posted within that (sub)subforum. Things that do not fit
in any of the sub-subforums, should be posted in a subforum (eg. topic about ATCing should
be posted in Multiplayer).
- Using FlightGear
--- Installation (Installing: FlightGear, scenery, aircraft, other addons)
--- Flying (How to control your aircraft? How does the AP work?)
--- Multiplayer
----- Virtual Airlines (no comment needed)
----- Events (gatherings, like TransGear, across Austrialia fly-ins)
- Developing FlightGear
--- Aircraft
----- Cockpit (Working on a cockpit? Ask for help. Or provide help!)
----- Liveries (Need help on painting an aircraft? Showcasing your liveries?)
--- Scenery (How to edit an airport? New airport showcases.)
--- New features (Requests for features. Working on some new shader?)
- Stories and humor (Funny talk. Still aviation/FlightGear related.)
- Forum (issues, topics like this one about new subforums)
