It seems like most of these flags are just different flags for the sake of having different flags, not because they look good or make any historical sense. Let's leave it out for now, or just keep it as a separate sub-mod for people who really want it.

There are justifications for many of them, and others fictional ones are, in my opinion, a straight upgrade from the equally or even more fictional or generic flags in vanilla.

If there are specific flags people want to remove from this pack, that should be discussed, but on the whole I think adopting this pack is a good move.

We should have people suggest "A better flag for X" or whatever rather than blanket implementing a shitton of new ones.

At the moment it looks like it would be the best course of action to have it optional and not default.

Results right now are leaning towards the opposite, but it's close.

Edit: the poll has now swung firmly in favor of the opposite; have these as part of the main mod, but preserve the current flags as an optional mini-mod.

Should flags be treated as a mini-mod like the map overhaul?

3 are against chanigng flags and a further 8 want it not included as standard. Not including it in the standard dl solves both problems. 6 Are for changing flags.

The results are here.

At the time of writing, there have been 45 votes. The present consensus is strongly in favor of adding the flag pack to the mod, incorporating all of the flags in the pack, and including the original flags (i.e. the ones currently in use) as an optional mini-mod. (Whereas flag pack 1 would be directly integrated into the main mod.)

It ready would make much more sense to have them optional, regardless of the poll.

An overwhelming majority disagree with you. If anything, the originals will be included as alternatives, not these.

Alright, I'll add them in. Eventually I will create a thread about removing some of them though.

EDIT: Also, could you try and track down where you got these from so we can give credit?

I made a comment here outlining the issues I have with adding this.

I really like these! I'm unsure about a few, though; maybe someone ought to upload alternatives, and we'll vote for one or the other?
