Plat Edition new log physics?

[HEspammer]

Did they finally fix the log phyics with the platinum expansion?
I am really excited about an expansion focused on forstry, but I won't buy it if the game still has these unbelievably bad log physics.

It seems to be better than before.
Of course, that is incredibly low threshold to exceed.

I have noticed for example habit of logs starting to slide along claw when loading them.

But nothing as incredibly bad as in for example 17 or 19.

A 1000 times better. Watch some videos before buy

It might be better, but log, crane and grab physics are still terrible.

[Iommonaut]

Nope. Still feels like you're on the moon.

The good thing is if you have a twig under a log you can pick up the twig with the log on top and walk around with it. That's realistic isn't it? xD

As echoed in prior comments...Greatly improved but great improvement can still be made. At least for me it is now into the 'playable' category. Before this update logging was just a novelty in the game, being too frustrating for serious long term play for me.

It's better but far from perfect. You can, for example, use a large machine and grab a bunch of logs without them going berserk. But soemtimes the crane claws bug against the terrain or don't close properly.
It is better than what it used to be, though.

Improved a little but defiantly still no good. If you look at what FDR Logging has done and what you can do you will faint, it really is that good. Problem is the new logs and the Plat map cant be modded so we have to wait for the next iteration of FS for Silverrun to unlock :(
Just look at this video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m7AmN8x1Z34 Its amazing. And its all code that giants have access to. Instead they give us this bouncing flinging light as a feather logs and they seen to think that it is correct and fun. It isnt.
