Is there any chance that 'realistic' looking smoke can be added in a future update?

Now chaps, lets get away from personal insults, please?

This is now whether someone has a job or money, it's about adding a 'simple' effect to a 2D sprite to make it look like 3D smoke. The FPS hit on any system is really minimal

The problems in the past have come from large columns of smoke on the ground or huge fires, but that is what I am requesting TD experts could look at and overcome, so that at-least we will have a decent (which is already evident and available in MODS) representation of smoke effects as the 2D 'staircase' effect when you fly through trailing smoke, must surely be put to bed now and retired?

Please do not turn this thread into a flame-war, this is for mature discussion regarding a simple 2D sprite, there is no-need to get on anyone's case about their personal funding, thanks, MP
