Desired features #2

Hi guys, from using Halp I was hoping to chime in with some features I really liked and disliked. Hope they're helpful. I assume you guys were familiar with the features of Halp - I could give a list of the basic features if you didn't use it much.

Things I especially liked: Being able to indicate whether a chunk was, for example, Spring 2012 or Fall 2012. This let you play with study away, LOA, etc. Counting up the blocks you placed and tallying those towards graduation. Being able to drag blocks around easily.

Things I disliked: You had to click to save the changes, unlike a google docs format that saves automatically. A couple times I navigated away and had to go back and redo work.

I really like being able to plan things out, I hope you guys are able to make Planet awesome - I'd like to use it for sure :)

Hey Franz,

Good to know! If you want we can loop you in as we design and develop. Also you can code some of it if you want ^^

I'd be happy to be included as it's built, I doubt I'd have the knowledge to help code it, though it'd be interesting to give the process a look. Never done anything like that :P On Aug 1, 2013 6:21 PM, "nrubin" notifications@github.com wrote:
