Obviously for us the driving range is an important one. It would be great if it will keep a record of all your shots for a session. We could then use it as a poor man's fitting tool.

[mmlincon]

Is there going to be a specific feature request queue for simulator play? There are some things that are important for simulator play that aren't a big deal on a PC or console. Like lining up to pin automatically which I've noticed the game isn't particularly good at. Also, I think the delayed aiming might get a little annoying when you are trying to play. I know we are in the very very early stages and don't expect a whole lot to be ideal initially but I think this should be considered once development gets further along, especially with sim play.

[Maverick]

Post important sim features here. We will also keep track of them in the beta group section.

[Maverick]

Matchplay and 4-ball modes for online are scheduled.

Drops/out-of-bounds are high priority.

Booyah!

[Throttle]

Ability to adjust wind settings (no wind) so we can dial in club distances. Hope that gets planned vs current status for the gamers (not planned).

+1 to shot stats on the range that we can later review.

[Brettster]

Awesome Zmax!

Post important sim features here. We will also keep track of them in the beta group section.

Any ETA yet on the Sim version?

[Maverick]

No ETA at this time.

No plans to allow ability to delete courses published is troubling.. Especially since Protee has stated they will limit number of courses mirrored.

[Craig118]

My understanding is Protee will control which courses they mirror from the HB site. Course s designed with the simulator version of tgc will go directly to ProTee mirrored site. Currently there is no way to delete these courses once published. So if you want to amend a course you have to create another copy and can't delete the old one

Ya I deleted my other post earlier after I re-read it. It didn't make sense, I was only thinking about online play. You will need this feature either way. Hopefully once we start testing we can have our own checklist with more appropriate priority levels.

[Maverick]

Allowing creators to delete a course should be easy to implement. Perhaps it's just too low a priority for them. This might not be a big deal for us. We should be able to provide a list of courses for ProTee to removed and to no longer mirror on the ProTee servers.
