I would like ingame forum.just like hangar deck ect but Forum.im getting annoyed to always tab down to look at the forums

This seems like it would be to complex and messy to implement. But I do wonder why they took off the link to the Forums on the main website.

I can get pretty lazy at times, but the forums exist right here and are easy enough to get access to. I definitely concur that it would be a waste of effort to bring in some sort of in game version of them.

Sure I see a link at the bottom, but at the top there used to be 3 buttons: Wiki, Forums and Contact.

It isn't there anymore lol. http://altitudegame.com/

vBulletin is fully-functional third-party forum software. Why waste the time to code an in-game forum to replace it?

umm for fun xD

Alti is built on swing (god knows why), so it's actually pretty do-able to integrate a browser into the game which directs (and limits?) to the forums.

If Karlam is actually gonna pick this up.

Altitude is built on raw OpenGL, so it's not trivial to implement a browser view.

The map editor uses swing, but that doesn't really help

Altitude is one of, if not the quickest game to open and close (not to mention alt tabbing). Like...for reals.

Get 2 monitors imo! That'll fix your problems.
