Scenery objects can be animated (see wind turbines etc).

Yes and the new crop harvesters  

[Darcaem]

Mmm my update download has ended, and I was able to log in with offline auth. The Germany map does not appear on the list of purchased terrains, I assume this is due to the server unavailability. But I also do not see the new airfields on the Kola map, is this normal?

 

EDIT: the version shown is the last one it seems 2.9.15.9408

So is the fix for "Failed to get authorization data. Error code is: 502" to wait for undefined amount of time? Or something else?

Yep jejeje There is nothing to do. It seems to be recovering though, it just worked for me and let me start installing the map

If I pedal my rudder pedals can I make it download quicker? It’s ETA’s 00:53 @ 32.9MB/s

[Guille H. Mono]

So I can't log in on the first day of holidays because there is an update??

This can't be serious.

As spread everywhere days before, now about 100 GB, later more as the map evolves

Ugh. Well that sucks.

[Gunfreak]

I did a quick look.

ME. Added units for GDR: PT_76, S-60_Type59_Artillery, Mi-24V, Mi-8MT, Su-25, MiG-23MLD with their respective additional liveries

 

Did a quick check GDR does not have any liveries for MiG23/25. And even with red force. The only liveries available for these two aircraft are Algerian.

[YoYo]

Very slow speed between 0-16 kb/s. Ups :(.

I guess the servers are clogged.

Just home from work, made coffee, patched up, and downloading Germany now on Steam. Coming in normal quick Steam speed. 

 

What to do tonight? What to do?

I purchased the map of Germany, but it doesn't appear so I can install it. The server authentication issue seems to be fixed, but the map doesn't appear.
