My compliments and respect.

Very nice work! And I like the structure - in CMANO I am always reading the lines trying to find max range of weapons and on your site it's much clearer :) awesome.

Check out the newest Baloogan Campaign program!
General Staff

Image

It reads the autosave that Command provides and gives you a list of all the units in the currently playing scenario in Command. When you double click on an entry it will open up the new Online Database Viewer to that unit's page!! Only works for DB3000. :)

Available now! http://baloogancampaign.com/baloogan-campaign-launcher/

Take a look at the Burke: http://wiki.baloogancampaign.com/index. ... hip?ID=438
[:D]
Sensor groups, sensors inside of mounts, magazines inside of mounts all very tricky!

For ships I need to do magazines unattached to a specific mount, air facilities; then I think ships are done at that point! Aircraft are done currently too!
Tomorrow I'll tackle Subs and Facilities.

Under type it shows:
DDG - Guided Missile Destroyer (1955-)
What does that (1955-) mean? Something other than the year available I hope.

I guess that is quite confusing now that I look at it. That (1955-) is the era in which the Guided Missile Destroyer designation was used, starting with when the Farragut-class was first designated in 1955.

The year available shows up in the Unit Title "#438 - DDG 51 Arleigh Burke [Arleigh Burke Flight I] -- United States (Navy), 2008-0, SM-3, AEGIS BMD" where it says 2008-0.

Here is what the same Burke looks like in the Command database viewer:

I'll modify the online database viewer to be more clear about available date, say, I could put it under the "Pier/Dock/Davit" entry in the general data section.

Can anyone post what this looks like on a tablet/mobile platform? I don't have a tablet to see what it looks like. [:)]

(Newbie question)
How does one know the Helo capacity of a ship (eg. DDG) without looking at the picture?
I can't find answer by looking at database stats.

I have not yet added Air Facilities to the online database, its my next task : )


In the command database viewer its under "AIRCRAFT FACILITIES"

Eg, this ship can berth 2 medium aircraft, and launch one at a time via its pad.
I plan to have much the same interface on my site for Ships and Facilities.

Dock facilities, like some landing ships have, is a very low priority for me. [:)]

If you wouldn't mind, could you please show me what the database viewer looks like now on your platform? I've cleaned up the design based on what it looked like on your screen : )

Edit: also anyone else with a non-desktop platform; images are really quite helpful to let me know what needs fixing or tweaking.

Now the database viewer has the ability to have user editable descriptions! If you would like to help make the database viewer better please add some descriptions. [:)]

Would it be an idea to include a section on scenarios e.g. scenario descriptions? From official scenarios and popular fanbased ones?
