4.x Direction Clarification

[SDGNelson]

There's been some feedback lately worried about what's going to be happening with 3.x now that 4.x is on the horizon, for example whether it's worth continuing work on plugins and workshop content.

Right off the bat: 4.x is still a long ways off. I'm putting a big emphasis on quality and taking my time polishing and re-polishing every feature until it shines. My current hopeful timeline is to get an opt-in beta similar to OPERATIONMAPLELEAF available in the next couple months with bare-bones features.

Even when 4.x does come out, however, 3.x is going to have a long lifetime. It's not going anywhere and will be available in Steam as a separate game from 4.x so that you can have them both downloaded at the same time. I'm still working on big updates like the bicycles and trains recently, and have highly requested features like trunk storage on the way soon. There are also at least 2 big curated maps I'm confident will be releasing in the coming months.

Specifically for the modding folks: In my opinion it's still worth working on 3.x stuff, but it won't be compatible with 4.x because the new version is using Unreal Engine 4 rather than Unity 5. The new mod tools will be much more comprehensive and support custom features and extensions using blueprints.

Thanks for your support! As always continue sending your thoughts, suggestions and feedback. :)

I remember a thread saying that Nelson couldn’t do anything about it because it was a steam issue with the overlay
