Bring back the Drag View (#SaveTheDragView!)

36.5k UnstableOrbit  8.7 years ago

For those of you who haven't yet heard, the latest beta version of simpleplanes has removed the drag view because one or more of the devs "didn't care for it" and they "hoped we wouldn't notice." Now, I don't know about you, but you shouldn't give people a useful tool, let them get used to it for nearly two years, and then suddenly yank it away without providing a replacement that provides the exact same functionality. And simply displaying the total drag points does NOT count as the exact same functionality. I found the drag view very useful; however, I don't know how many of you also found it useful. Thats where this post comes in. I want to thoroughly obliterate their hopes that the majority of the community would simply not notice it go missing, because I feel that a major change like this should NOT be hidden. Additionally, I want to gauge how many people would miss the drag view if it was permanently removed. Therefore, if you would miss the drag view and want to see it stay in the next update, please upvote or comment #SaveTheDragView(and maybe an argument for it) here!!!! #SaveTheDragView

UPDATE: ANDREW HAS STATED THE DRAG VIEW IS COMING BACK. YOU GUYS CAN RELAX NOW!

    @TheHardcoreFlyer You callin me a pointwhore? I started this because I didn't want to see the drag view go away, not because of meaningless points. Also, its already been confirmed that the drag view has been saved.

    @ShatterFox when you click the three lines in the top right, then select show drag. It makes parts white or red depending on how much drag they create
