Title: Union of Burma, plus Kawthuong Airport
Post by: wishfulanthony on February 27, 2012, 09:15:16 am

I have noticed two basic things that are of concern:

- Burma's national flag has been changed, from:

Old: (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/1/1d/Flag_of_Myanmar_%281974-2010%29.svg)

To this: (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/68/Flag_of_Myanmar-new.jpg)

I would like to see it changed because the government is currently in its transition stage.

- when I pull up airports from Asia, the first airport that shows up is Kawthuong, in which it should be moved to the letter K rather than being ahead of the list before letter A because it confuses players into thinking that it is a good airport to begin with, when in reality, it only has a single, 1,800m x 50m runway.

Hi Anthony,

We used a stock pack of country flags so unless one of our graphics guys want to have a go at creating a minature flag the best solution is to just remove the existing one in-game. The pack we use is not currently maintained.

The particular airport you refer to may be using some special character resulting in the sort becoming out of alignment, rather than a normal letter that gets sorted normally. We will take a look soon.

I would happily do the missing flags!

Malawi slightly changed their flag last year, so that should be updated too.

Just to double-check: What flags are missing/wrong?

EDIT:
Countries with different national flags/new countries:
Lesotho
Kosovo
Iraq
Rwanda
Malawi
Sint Maarten*
Curacao*
Burma/Myanmar
South Sudan
Libya

Sint Maarten and Curacao was formed when the Netherlands Antilles were dissolved in 2010. The other islands of the Antilles are now special municipalities of the Netherlands.
