Exorcet Posted September 19, 2022 Posted September 19, 2022 This is just a general request for the modeling of rivers on all maps. Regions like Iran can have dry and wet seasons which drastically affect the state of rivers. The map as it is seems to model a dry season as many rivers appear as small streams or even dry. It would be nice if they varied with seasons, or if this is not possible I think having them a little more full would be an improvement. This is not just for visual reasons, deeper rivers would increase the value of bridges. Sometimes it looks underwhelming to take out a bridge that spans a dry ditch that is barely lower than the surrounding the land. If a major river was flowing under that bridge, its loss would seem more impactful. 8 Awaiting: DCS F-15C Win 10 i5-9600KF 4.6 GHz 64 GB RAM RTX2080Ti 11GB -- Win 7 64 i5-6600K 3.6 GHz 32 GB RAM GTX970 4GB -- A-10C, F-5E, Su-27, F-15C, F-14B, F-16C missions in User Files

Seconded - I have specific bridge-busting missions in some campaigns I'm writing and they feel a bit...pointless 1 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
