That will be the next-next generation: all autogen-houses with their own furniture. Adds a lot of immersion when flying 😄

I feel like you are both being sarcastic.

But

Current gen is already "i can visit my house" (since xplane 11 and msfs2020)

That puts next gen firmly in the realm of "I can go inside my house".

And anyway, besides grass, enclosed spaces like tunnels, hangers, rooms in airport terminals etc. are by far the weakest link in current gen flight sim scenery imho. Some sims still cant do bridges afaik.

I would pay more money for this sort of capability than for any amount of physical flight related improvements. And would keep on paying for any addons that utilised this. And I suspect I'm not the only person willing to do so.

Yep, I remember driving quite a while around Seattle and then down the freeway to (and past) KSEA back in XP11. Following alongside the railroad tracks and tracking some rather splendid looking trains at one point. Great fun.

<Smartass mode on>: since X-Plane 9 😛 ...

 

... and X-Plane 10 (with bridges 😛)

In the next-next-next-gen scenery I expect drinking a beer 🍺 in that bar (at 0:33) - of course only after the flight 😄.

If this is all we have to complain about, Times Are Good 😁

Real as it gets simming.

Cities:Skylines 3 also looks absolutely rad!

Authentic bridges would be nice to have, but that won't be possible without some sort of terrain Gateway...which would generally be a good idea, as long as copyright infringements (by users simply converting SketchFab or other models and submitting them) can be avoided in some way. Or users can only model landmarks using a predefined set of building blocks (as on airports).

You guys are having fun with a glass of beer in your hands, talking about XP9, Cities Skylines, old SimCopter (will never forget the amount of hours I spent trying to play this game lol), while me standing in the corner:

Only thing i would like to see is the ability to put tunnels under runways and taxiways. Improve a heap of airports if we could, But I do come here for my daily dose of comedy.

That can be done, I remember Gaya did this for one of the French alps airports. It's just an absolute pain to do and distribute because at present it requires a huge area of the mesh to be distributed with the scenery. The new upcoming scenery system will hopefully resolve this.
