I do miss terrain and interrior fun how you can build cities in them. But Shadows are still nice I have allways thought why diden't badspot make like when you go on flat maps shadows work and when you go on interrior and terrain maps they get disabled.
The entire point of removing them was so they don't make the code complicated anymore. Taking them out completely made updates much faster. Leaving them would've made updates slow. Leaving them in and making them optional in order to have "do you want this feature or this feature?" would make updates even more slower. Do you realize how complicated that would make things?
They were ugly as stuff, buggy, and an obstacle to development. I almost stayed away from any non-slate map and even when I did play on a slate map, knowing that I was just standing on an invisible interior bothered me.
I'm glad they're gone. In fact, if they were brought back in the same state that they were in, I'd quit.
