Next Update?

Cool.  Whatever works for Planetside.  I love this program.

But at some point there need to be a better preview for objects cause it can take forever to just plant a simple tree at the right spot. Need to do a lot of test renderings and thats not fun.

Anyway... I look forward to the next update. Hope it's here soon

It should be easy with all those controls in the cockpit.

Also related to this, please, please give us a "sit on terrain" for objects.

YESSSS! That would be nice.

Use the right mouse button to click on a location. Use Copy Coordinates, then paste this into the objects Translate area. (The box on the right of the coordinates) The objects location is dependent on the objects center. You may have to enter values for thr y axis to make it sit correctly on the terrain. I start with adding 1 to the y coordinate (easy to change it back).

I love copy / paste coordinates.  What a great idea.  Was this Jo's?

A sit camera x' above terain would be a great feature...

It would also be nice to be able to tilt objects or put them along normals instead of only aligning on vertical axis. An option similar to what is offered right now on displacements would be really neat. It would help to avoid having "grass stairs" on sloppy surfaces and more realistic woods (with trees being actually tilted by some degree, instead of being 100% straight).
