Custom flags functionality

First off, the same flag was used pre 1949.
Second, A lot of nations have diplomatic missions in ROC which is commonly refereed to as Taiwan.
Third, ingame there are vehicles that are from the ROC and thus should be selectable.

Making this political is clearly a way to make the mods get angry and close the discussion, with some of the most blatant bait I have ever seen here.

Every time, they say that after 1949 the Republic of China (Taiwan) lost its territory in mainland China and retreated to Taiwan, claiming it was “defeated” or “ceased to exist.” But the fact is, the Republic of China (Taiwan) continues to exist.

Next, they usually bring up UN Resolution 2758 to argue that Taiwan belongs to China. However, Resolution 2758 only decided which government would hold China’s seat in the UN; it did not decide Taiwan’s status or whether it belongs to China.

Oh, and just because a country isn’t in the UN doesn’t mean it isn’t a country. So from 1949 until the end of 1971, China itself wasn’t a UN member — technically, it wasn’t recognized as a country in the UN.

So the Soviet flag also needs to be increased (1922-1991)? Soviet has not existed for a long time.

It’s called the USSR tech tree not Russian. You don’t have a suitable replacement for the USSR flag under the USSR tech tree

No one said that, they have options to make it so if you are in the mainland you cannot select or see the flag, I feel like that would be the best way to do it frankly.

Also bringing a hot conflict into this and saying stop being political is so funny.

The Republic of China (ROC) was a founding member of the United Nations in 1945 and held China’s seat, including a permanent seat on the UN Security Council until 1971.

The ROC flag should be added on account of being a historical flag, it’s current use is beside the point.

This is a bad faith position from you. It was also the flag of the Republic of China from 1928-1949, which was succeeded by the current People’s Republic of China.

The ROC flag would qualify as 12 countries recognise it as a Country. Not to mention that it was previously recognised by the UN. This means that as vehicles from this era (prior to 1971, which includes the Sabres in the Chinese tech tree) would qualify this flag to be added as it was a national flag then. Not to mention that the Republic of China (1928-1949) was also internationally recognised, so what would be the issue with that?

As Taiwan used to be a neutral member of the UN and that version of Taiwan is represented in game, it is a neutral addition. Unless you want to remove all Taiwanese vehicles prior to 1971, your argument falls flat again. Not to mention that the ROC Flag was used by China prior to 1949 and as we have vehicles used by the Republic of China (1928-1949), it should be in game.

The Nazi flag in game is available, Stylized. It is still representing the Third Reich, which was a Nazi state. So it IS represented in game, and therefore your point makes zero sense.

Yeah, I am aware of it, it is currently status of a somewhat similar status to [Swiss subtree when Hunter F.58 were added, and not officially announced before.]

Very clear to see, just the official announcement hasn’t been stamped on it yet.

Also, sorry about the miscalculation of numbers about Pakistani vehicles. human error in myself.

But sadly, here we are, the majority of Chinese users on the forum protested about it, and a chain of hatred has started. :/


Anyway,

Back to the original topic
I think I really can’t understand adding Taiwanese flag as [subtree custom tree selection] option can be this problematic.

If we consider Taiwan as subtree of PRC just for arguing’s sake
-Because it is part of chinese tech tree
-and providing vehicles.

I really am unsure about rejecting that idea
because it is subtree.

Example: Thailand can be selected as flag of japan TT, and Canada can be selected as flag of both US and UK TT
