I think the point at which people notice builders, spans from Gold to platinum, and the more you are known around the site, the bigger your leaving hype is. Say, if you were level 5000 and you had only been a user for 2 months, your hype would be quite big because you have acquired a lot of points in a short amount of time. If you have 5000 points and have been around for 2-3 years, you may not get a farewell (unless you are quite frequent on the site).
Perhaps the call can only be made if you know the person leaving is popular among other users.

But of course, if someone like Gestour left again, the world would implode into chaos,
Oh hey, if you want the game to run 20X better, in Unity, go to: speed trees in the standard assets, then click on one of the trees(Conifer, Broadleaf1, Broadleaf2) then open the inspector and scroll down till you see LOD's Drag the LOD levels down. The LOD order should be 100% 99% 98% 97% and 3%. *Repeat for all trees. *That way the trees only render when you're quite close. If you want to see what that looks like, play my latest map "Paradise Island". I did the LOD thing in that :D
@MyMessage well, The mod tools haven't been updated in like a year, soo, maybe it's a version error, I don't code, I only build maps, so I wouldn't know for sure :D
@Spikerya Nicerino, I already have a few in progress, tell me which sounds better, a cliff edge gravel rally that climbs a mountain, or a long fast countryside asphalt rally?
This mod was never released, it was merely a look at what was possible with the game. There is youtube footage of it under Philip tarpley's YT account: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oWMmj2c4M
@MisterT I used the speed trees for the trees seen here, the bush and tall grass was done using the grass tool. I just scaled them to 5-10. Also, to help with FPS find: Standard assets> Terrain > Speed tree, and pick either broadleaf or conifer, then click on the prefab, change the LOD's so that all the LOD groups except the last one are formated: 99%, 98%, 97%, tue last one should be 3%.
That makes the game render the tree details when they're really close, allowing solid good FPS. This will be most apparent in game, the editor will lag immensely
While it's true that people weren't asking for Simple Rockets 2, it's incredible what they've done, and, by the looks of it, it kinda includes the same principles as SimplePlanes.
Also, updates don't make developers money, so Simple Rockets 2 could possibly be a way to earn more money so they can update both games and perfect their current progress.
Also, with the techniques that they've learnt from SimplePlanes, it's not like they're making a game completely from scratch, it might compose of techniques used in SimplePlanes, and it may even refine it's faults.
Altogether, I'm excited to see Simple Rockets 2's release, and will definitely buy it as soon as it comes out :D
@Franticmatty only 20 days late 😂 Are you back from your vacation?

@CruzerBlade you're the first person to actually respond to that question ever! Thankyou!
+1@highlander1337 Maybe try Gestour or HellFireCoder
@highlander1337 I don't have a single clue... i don't code sorry, i only build terrain and 3D objects. :)
@MisterT So you know your Discord tag? Nimber?
@MisterT Awesome what is your Discord name, I'll be happy to contribute!
@Rodrigo110 Maybe! Hint hint, nudge nudge... ;) @MisterT
@Rodrigo110 Thanks! :) But, I don't know about the best looking, this one may top the charts yet :D
Actually, do you have a Discord? @MisterT
I've got a few tips I can give you :)
Also, I see you're using an in-game shader or GFX effect for your screenshots, what one are you using?

!!! Simple Warthunder! Nice work!!!
@mikoyanster Nice!
+1Awesome! Hey where do you get all those houses, warehouse, buildings assets? Or did you makw them yourself?
+2@MyMessage well, The mod tools haven't been updated in like a year, soo, maybe it's a version error, I don't code, I only build maps, so I wouldn't know for sure :D
+1@MyMessage I'm still not sure what you mean
@Awsomur lovin it
m
@WNP78 :P
@BaconEggs Easy points I guess
El rip, we had something like this doing its rounds today over the Manawatu
Nice, but it seems to have an issue with turning
@Spikerya Nicerino, I already have a few in progress, tell me which sounds better, a cliff edge gravel rally that climbs a mountain, or a long fast countryside asphalt rally?
+2You can tell you have a solid fan-base when even a mod upvotes your banter XD
@randomusername I know right? And I don't think the SP reddit has anything for Android modding
+1@randomusername Nice thanks
+1It doesn't seem to work for me, the clouds work, just not the meteors n stuff :/
+1@DeezDucks Yeah, before I worked out how to optimize it, it wouldn't run at 2 FPS!

Also, do you use easyroads3d?
Very nic tank, what map is that, or is it a designer?
@InternationalAircraftCompany That's so freaking accurate! xD
@DemonSniper8 Ok, thanks, but please remove your comment, it's really spamy and I don't know how to release for android. :)
+3@MisterT yup, this one worked
@MisterT The link doesn't appear functional, try right clicking on the file and creating a shareable link
@MisterT Upload the file to Google Drive, and link me to it :)
+1@MisterT sure!

@jamesPLANESii thanks man! :D
Incredible!

@RailfanEthan Simple beans
i'm new-ish too, but relatively experienced, if you need any tips, sing out :)
@jamesPLANESii I'm working on a couple maps like that at the moment ;)
I wanna try try somewhere local. Maybe even Wellywood
@Omnium lol, I downloaded it on my Y7 for lols, it froze my phone and I had to restart it XD
@Omnium Yes.
@CarsonG1017 I'm not sure if there will be a mobile version at this stage, but if I do it will be a seperate mod, all goods?
