Making more of Rockingham driveable?
Little suggestion; why not make more of Rockingham X driveable? I'm sure many people would enjoy and appreciate the large open carpark and narrow roads surrounding the track, similar to Westhill X, as well if released alongside the graphics and physics update, It would carry on with the theme of expanding track environments, as Eric has already done with South City. Maybe even making the roads surrounding tracks like Blackwood, Aston, and Kyoto driveable! I don't know much about programming myself, especially on a scale of LFS, but I'm sure it wouldn't be completely out of the question Petals

Take my (excellent) diagram as something to base it on, or at least get a good idea of what I'm talking about Omg omg omg

They have so much work to do
I'm aware of the incredible amount of work that the LFS team are processing, and I'm in no way trying to force this down their throats. This is a place for suggesting potential improvements for Live For Speed, and I'm doing just that Smile
You are right, I never criticize your suggestions, but I think the order of priority is different. Wouldn't it be better if players made such suggestions when these priorities were implemented? So graphic updates, new tire physics and air cycle... We know there will be no new map. There will be updates on existing maps anyway. They've said this before. But they still haven't published a report.

I enter the forum regularly every day. I constantly check for the release of the new test patch. Or new news... I'm sure most people do this.
I can relate to checking here every day for a report, and after thinking about what you've said about a suitable order of operations, the best time for suggestions will be when the initial public release is made available, so devs can consider some users suggestions without having to divide focus between that and developing the latest version Petals
Quote from RealistAdam :Wouldn't it be better if players made such suggestions when these priorities were implemented? So graphic updates, new tire physics and air cycle...

Would it? I think that's a terrible idea. Priorities can be dynamic. Yes, it would be ideal if they are worked through one by one if it takes a short amount of time. But as we have seen, some of them take more than a decade.

The VW Scirocco was announced about 15 years ago and then placed on hold due to the whole tyre physics issue. Thereafter, for a long time (even now?) sorting out the tyre physics have been the most important issue. If everyone waited until that was finished to come up with suggestions for improving LFS... I don't know where would be.

People discover LFS, fall in love, drive for ages, and after some time move away... Their suggestions during that time is invaluable for the developers (and others) who could build up on them. Scawen and Eric can be inspired from the suggestions and maybe even decided to change the priorities and introduce new content.

As for UniValvePlums' suggestion - Rockingham is an actual track whereas all others are frictional. So it makes sense to recreate the actual roads around Rockingham which may be an issue?

Anyway, just imagine a world where the track/environment creation is opened up like car mods? Now wouldn't that be fun?
