Just checked out the map again, do we really have builders in China? From the map it looks like we have more builders in China than Europe!

I don't think so.

I think they got (mis)located in China due to complications in the coordinate data.

I seem to recall a problem when I put mine in and when I did Bill H's, we had issues again.

The "complications" are that for our longitude here on this continent we need a negative number for the longitude. Some people are not doing that. Ive sent PM's to those of us who are in China so they can fix it. Ill probably move some of the others if they dont get around to it.

I know I'm like a fly in the ointment, but is there any chance for having a Bearhawk added to the map build list choices?

It might be problematic because of the field heading "RV Type".

Maybe RV type could be "other"?

There is a "none" option that Keith is using. That does sound a bit exclusionary though.

Keith, getting a bearhawk in there could be a, uh, bear. :bow: At this point I dont have quite the bandwidth to do it and am not sure of the board direction that would start. That is something I will ponder.

Im going to move this thread to the Support forum since its turned down that path.

meh, if this place was exclusionary I would've be shown the door long ago as a non-RV heretic :P

I'm cool with "none". It is after all, accurate. :mrgreen:
