True, if not a priority it takes time before we'll see it

In the map editor all 3D objects inluding trees can be freely moved and turned either in a property dialog or by object anchors if paced manually
This has been the case the last 10 years

License plates, police car livery, new billboards, road signage, yeah it's coming along nicely.

Good to see the Calcasieu River Bridge in game. It doesn't look so steep as in real life.

At the end of the video you can see the exits that lead to I-210 (exit 25), Lake Charles and exit 27 LA-378, Westlake.

Even though the A word was still used in the article, glad to see this being out there for Louisiana. More Hotels and Resorts, less arcades.

It's glorious isn't it, they changed their policy before we got to Louisiana and Nevada, so no more worries on that front :)

It's a very relaxing time to be a fan of ATS, for me anyways. We know the road networks of LA and IL already and they look very good, SD we know for a fact is in good hands given the NE/IA team's previous work, BC announcement should be coming this year or next year, etc. Just back to waiting on gameplay improvements. More dynamic loading should hopefully be coming (again, my hope is for tanker loading/unloading in time for Louisiana, although no evidence of it yet), and I'm also cautiously optimistic that their work on Coaches could provide a general framework or at least a base to work off of for the implementation of LTL/multi-drop. That's assuming they want to do LTL/multi-drop anyways, and I'm not sure we've ever heard those words come out of anyone's mouth at SCS, at least since I've been listening, so it may still be a pipe dream.

And of course, the ever-looming specter of truck washes :P

It's all coalescing, slowly but surely. Very fun times right now indeed.
