The part of the boat that is underwater, and that we can see through the water, seems not to be affected by refraction. I know it's nit picking but I think it takes away from the overall realism of the image.

Are you planning on adding refraction to light passing through transparent materials?

Can't answer now. Maybe yes, maybe in future. There are different reasons to make it and to do not make. All such effects eat some time too much resources of computation. But our goal at first to get the realistic picture in air and what is really visible from air on the ground. There must be compromises becasue at first it is flight sim, and then - all other is secondary.

Even when I tell that AAA is controlable... this is not only for gameplay... this is for these that can't fly, but would try... and at least will be satisfied playing online for the AAA.
