CoD vs some other sims that model Kent?

If that IS true for CoD then it certainly shouldn't be, and it isn't how collisions are typically done. The visible trees should be arranged into spatial hierarchies or groups so 95% of them can be excluded from individual collisions tests with just a few bounding box or sphere tests. You do not have to calculate the distance from every tree to every aircraft.

I'm sure the devs know all this though, they just haven't had time to implement it yet.

Point proven, again..

So with that in mind your comments dont me anything now do they as you dont own this game "so every comment you make about it is just a guess" because you cant speak from experience.

I really think mumsnet is more your scene, you'll fit right in.

None of our comments on the collision problem mean anything. We're all just guessing. The light and color issue is a different matter. I have photographs and screenshots to support my comments.

I have no idea what point you think is being proven.

oh well shame, maybe you should ask all the others you deliberately wind up what they think, but i guess they have all made it obvious anyway.
anyhow i'm off to bed with my wife while you no doubt will go to bed alone, after spending a few more hours being padantic and smarmy over a game you dont even own. Why are you here again. Oh yeah to comment on other peoples comments. Mumsnet mate, spot on.

I never played Crimson Skies, but a quick Google search indicates that it had better color and lighting than WoP.
