Ilya "Luthier1" Shevchenko was PF's Daddy RRG developed it, they work with Oleg's firm
Unfortunately both RRG studios and 1C:Maddox Games just didn't know much about the PTO. Shame, but they really put their collective foot in it...PF barely hits the high spots...I think of it as if it were an Eastern Front sim that only has Lvov, Kursk, and Berlin...they just didn't know the subject of the PTO at all. I've talked to people who were part of the process who have told me stories like the aircraft in PF of which the dev team were ignorant of completely- didn't even know it was used. They had never heard of it's use (!) I cannot guess how much or how little the PTO is known in general in the areas in which these people grew up- their country was never involved, after all. I think that PF was of a scope they vastly underestimated and misunderstood completely- and that the blame rests with them as they should have researched it
Luckily things like this Slot map are going to go a long way toward proper PTO content. I'm still stunned by what I'm seeing in this project
The quality and attention to detail are simply astounding. Maps are the biggest sin in the sim, and this is like absolution
