    This whole thread is loaded with awesome suggestions and feedback, I wish I was able to be on top of it all!

    It's a real treat being able to work alongside the community as we push the boundaries and mold the systems, so thanks back, to you and everyone else who has been active here! =)

    It would be cool to see contract in career mode, like with the deforestation someone suggested, you could get a contract to go there every hour or so and pick up a load of logs and take them somewhere.

    Can the entire ui and west coast textures get replaced by a png of my profile picture in 0.33?

    I'll see if we can do .webp format ;)

    Where would you like to take the logs to, what sort of deliveries would ensue? I considered this awhile ago, making a small "logging area" on one of the forest roads but then thought, "The trouble is, we'd just be bringing them back and forth to the new container shipping yard, players would get bored very fast." Making a new wood processing plant is out of the question for WCUSA unfortunately.

    Maybe, but the sheer beauty of the graphics would destroy many computers.

    Darn minimum specs...

    Is something planned for the "My parts"/"Parts inventory" screen? Finding a part in there is only slightly easier than finding a needle in a haystack. At least have each car in its own category.

    100% We are very aware of this and have grand plans to revamp the system, but it is a very complicated topic and requires many different people from many different teams. At the moment it's a priority to enhance the system, but an overhaul is the ultimate solution, and it's one of over 30 "top priorities" for the team, and as such there's no definite timeline available yet.

    How would you rate the community's influence on game development? 10%, 30%, 50%?))))) and why don't you use the voting system for some controversial issues, if our opinion is important to you?)))))))

    No, that was just an example, the actual suggestion was being able to get mor regular work in the laborer branch, another example, getting a job at shuffleboard logistics: more cargo, and either the start or the destination is the logistics center.

    Also, can we have lights in the commercial garage, like we have in the default garage? I can't see my car well when I'm painting it or adding stuff to it.

    Probably because the community’s influence varies depending on limitations and trajectory. A voting system would be great but also limit creativity and flow. So our involvement is likely to give ideas that may act as pieces that may fit into the puzzle :)

    The voting system would be meaningless because of longer development cycles, if we vote now, the feature would materialize in like a year, or might not at all, because the dev cycle is unpredictable and the tech is experimental, and in the end there would be tons of negative feedback due to "you promised but didn't relez" when it's simply a result of a feature being too difficult-to-implement/expensive/resource-heavy/etc. Besides, I'm sure they're perfectly aware of what the community wants the most, because of the frequency of how some things are mentioned, and I'm sure internally they have all the requests collected and sorted.
