You have already revealed everything, so no point trying to hold any secrets any more, just talk about everything

Nice try.

One small thing that would make my life easier would be to have the possibility to install landscapes outside the Condor2 folder. The hard drives get full pretty fast, and this would add a welcome flexibility in the way the storage can be managed.

There are ways to do this already. If you use Condor Updater this allows you to install Landscapes in a folder outside of the main Condor2 folder

If you don't want to use Condor Updater (which is probably a bad idea as this easy to use tool is really a blessing), an alternative is to use the junction generator I have written, see there: viewtopic.php?f=29&t=18924

Thank you Marc and Paul.
Never too late to learn new tricks.
(A native feature to declare the different landscape folders wouldn’t hurt though).

Hi, would it be possible to add animation of opening/closing glider´s cabin? Thx

We had this idea 3 years ago. All planes are prepared for it now, but we’ve not done it in favour of more useful features.

It may happen at some point.

It would be nice if server could record online race with all participants and then (if reply is published by the host) if we could could reply the whole race.

This would allow many things. For example to make a race recap video from future important races like FAI virtual grand prix.

The group I fly with, 'VSC UK', had a member create such videos of a race series we hosted (Thanks Stonks!), Here's an example https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ctVz-_mpCg&t=3s It's a mix of in Condor footage combined with a replay of all our FTR's. Most of us who use the Discord channel converted our FTR's to IGC so they could be replayed in Soaringlab (I think).

It'd be good if you could simply load up Condor in spectate mode offline and replay all FTR's provided for the task. Unsure if the uploading of the FTR could be automated as that has to come from each individual's PC, but that's what it'd require.

It'd be nice if you could restart after landing at the starting airport when flying offline. It's mildly inconvenient currently to practice winch or towing as you have to host a MP session to enable the restarts after landing.
