Thoughts on a21 b30:
.Good work with the optimizations @faatal & Co, I've been testing 7dtd 21.2 b30 in an integrated graphics card from 2013 and it works astonishingly well at 30fps lowest settings 720p. And 480p runs perfect at 60+fps (4k map). Very little stuttering (still there at times in heavy cities with heavy numbers). That's just impressive.
On a side note, RWG needs quite a bit of work. Biome percentages work ok if all 4 are exactly equal in size for any map size, but if you tweak the numbers for lower-than-6k sizes wonky things happen, like just 2 biomes generate or things like that.
Also, we need an option to pick which map border we want, like setting them to Mountains OR Water. What is the point to deselect rivers and lakes if you are sure to find plenty of water in at least 1 side of the border? Aside from POI and remnants with water that is. Those are plenty enough already.
LOD is better, I can't quite put my finger on it, but the transitions are better for many assets and grass and stuff.
There's another issue that needs to be tweaked: The thing about looting small objects and have them dissappearing is awesome, but why is it that I can still use my stone axe or wrench to take away some hitpoints from a bird's nest and get feathers or wrench a water collector with items inside before taking them so it doesn't dissappear? same with plastic from trash, paper, etc. I believe that is not intended since the change?
