Title: Trees again
Post by: RTR on May 15, 2005, 10:29:52 AM

It's been said before by others, and I'm gonna say it again now.

Get rid of the trees blocking the approach and departure paths of the runways please.

It is unrealistic to have 100ft tall trees at the threshold of a runway. It just doesn't happen.

I propose we send a couple of 24's of beer to HTC along with a few chainsaws. Maybe we can get the trees turned into firewood for the poor erks slaving away in the hangars at night.

Also the collision check should be redone.

You can fly through some trees without hurting your plane and on other occasions you will pass 50 feet above them and ruin your plane.

Has happened to me now on multiple treetop level dogfights that i was visibly higher than the tree texture, but still screwed my propeller, its getting annoying.

I agree.  The hit in FRs isn't worth the new trees.  It would be nice if users had the option to change back.
