Other games simply add fog outside of the bubble, so objects don't pop up, but appear out of fog instead. Cosmetically it looks nicer, but you simply loose ability to have different drawing distances for different objects. I would personally choose to live with popups, than with fog, which masks rivers, hills at distance and make navigation uncomfortable.

Perfect!
We just need that important buildings (like ground objectives, bases buildings, radar stations, etc) have huge drawning distance. In FMB for the sequel maybe we can set this and bomber pilots can have a easier life... Just a suggestion!
