Terrain render distance

[Nathcraft]

Hello, I was wondering if there are any plans to find a way to increase the terrain render disance. The current one (2km) is fine for a very flat route as the one inculded, but it would make it impossible to create good looking hilly or mountain routes.

I'm myself creating routes for DTG's Train Simulator (https://www.rwcentral.com/topic/409-v13-disponible-réseau-nord-lorrain/page/26/) and I see a huge potential in simrail, but this low terrain render distance issue seems to me like it could become a big limiting factor.

Good luck and thanks so much for this game!

I second that.

Currently, it looks like you are driving toward an empty space.
Being able to see mountains and hills will be important in other areas.

Honestly, this is the only true negative I was able to find about this sim so far. I can also tell you that once people get started on custom routes, I don't this won't be a problem.

Agree, even if they render as low res distant mountains, like we had in MSTS.

I’m thinking the render distance should have a dynamic aspect to it, just as in Zusi: if FPS falls below a configurable value, then view distance should be gradually reduced up to a configurable limit until FPS is back above the threshold. Should have hysteresis, of course, so that the render distance doesn’t oscillate back and forth.
