Oleg do you think it possible someday for a total land, sea, and air on-line simulated war useing SOW engine. With the introduction of drivables, be it land and sea it seems possible to me

It will depends of how much we will be able to insert in the initial release and its success on the market.
If it will go with success then we will be free to add more and more features to help third party to release their dreams.

With the release it will be ready for third party modeling of aircraft, ground objects (both static and AI), online maps, controlable by player guns. But our external special tools for inserting of these objects will be ready a bit later than the release of the sim itself. It will be separate tools for free downloading and use.

I think it is possible to get flight sim as a flight sim, where we have aircraft as main heroes with simplified model of control for tanks, cars, torpedo boats of drednauts. I don't think we are going for modeling of all the personel positions of drednauts...
Simplified controls of these ground objects need to be present due to standards of other games that to invite in our niche more non-fligth simmers.

I think the next code that we will release with the tools should be drive-able tanks, cars(with ability to dive and shoot from MG of this military car) and torpedo boats.

Am I right?

PS. Also... there is real complex tasks that to make all this alive and with superb playablity... We will need also to give user of tank(ship) to command other AI tanks (ships) and these commands are not the same type as we a doing for the aircraft AI
