    FEATURE/CONTENT STATUS

    http://www.hb-studios.com/forum/index.php?topic=6753.0
    Hi everyone - in a continued attempt to keep you as informed as possible, I have created a list of requested features/objects below. This list does not contain every single request, but it has the lion's share of the most common. Please understand that the items on this list, and their place of importance, can change at any time. This list is not meant to represent a commitment to an implementation schedule, or even implementation itself. It is to let you know of what requests we are aware and where they currently fall in the hierarchy of development plans. Currently we have scheduled out through four (4) content updates which are planned to be released roughly every 6-8 weeks starting in Mid-October. So as you can surmise, this would take us through about Mid-March. That does not mean we are stopping there, just that is what is scheduled out right now.

    I will update this list every week, or so, with new items.

    <table class="bbc_table"><tbody><tr><td>Implementation Status Legend</td></tr><tr><td>Scheduled</td><td>Already planned for an update, but not locked in to a specific one.</td></tr><tr><td>Low Priority,Med Priority,High Priority</td><td>Not planned for a specific update, but something we want to do. The higher the priority, the sooner it will likely get done.</td></tr><tr><td>Update 1,Update 2,Update 3,Update 4 </td><td>Locked in to a specific update.</td></tr><tr><td>Investigating</td><td>We are aware of this and are, or will be, looking in to the possibility of doing this.</td></tr><tr><td>Not Planned</td><td>We have investigated this and have chosen not to implement it.</td></tr></tbody></table>

    This will be nice

    "My Playing" for Tours/Tournaments not yet finished.

    Hoping they can figure out some kind of multi-planting tool for bushes and grass.

    Course testing would be nice as well.

    Doesn't look like they're hot on the idea of deleting courses.

          I don't understand why they can't/wont give us the ability to rotate trees. Makes no sense. Everything else can be rotated..
