Putting a flag on the VAB

[Noname115]

This question dawned upon me while thinking about the switch to Unity 5. In real life, the Vehicle Assembly Building has the United States flag and the NASA insignia on it. Should something like this be added into the game?

Yesssss

I just voted option 2- 'yes, but toggle'.  Because if it is included I'd just like the option to be able to turn it off if I want to.  This is one of those things that to me won't really make any difference whether it's there or not.

I was thinking this as well. It's not so much a make it or break it deal for Kerbal Space Program, but it's one of those little things that could make the experience a little more intuitive. If not anything else, how cool would it be to have you're flag proudly being displayed on the side of the largest building at KSC.

That. I can always just plant a flag there if I don't feel my life complete without it.

What motive should be on the flag? The one you had chosen before? They are way too low res for such a huge display.

The last time I tried a custom flag (right when flags were introduced, so things may have changed), I made my own which was way larger resolution than the ones that come with the game.  I think it was displayed on the interior VAB wall at full resolution.  Might be wrong.

I stopped using custom flags straight away.  Flags make good nav beacons, and they give experience to Kerbals.  I never actually look at them.  So I voted against wasting dev time on this just yet.  I'd rather have an option to set flags on pods to "off" by default, it would save me a couple of mouse clicks every time I add a pod.

As an aside, what's the reasoning behind the flag in the linked photo having the stars in the wrong corner?  Aesthetics?

This would be a nice touch.
But I fear that your custom "Flag" will look blurred when it is displayed on such a huge building, so the only way would be to add another Flag-System for High-Res Images, wouldnt it?
