does it count if they removed one at the same time?
Early days.
Wow, 4 months into planning week!
I can hear Mole pining for Levski from here!
Did Levski have fjords?
Got some interesting goss on how planet tech works (or doesn't
), which speaks to this kind of thing. Will write up in a while.It's still weird that they don't just cull all NPCs below the surface tho...

If the radar altimeter is anything to go by, it's a bit of a Schrödinger's Surface. You won't know its altitude until you hit it.
Also, Chris promised a 9:1 NPC/PC ratio, not that they'd all be visible

Culling NPCs above the surface might help too... looking at you, psycho chair and table dwellers. Problem being, would there be any NPCs left?
The NPCs are probably culled visually when they aren't seen, but if they are supposed to be walking around somewhere instead of living it up in the center of the earth then you can't just cull them from the game because they are supposed to be around somewhere.
I think the standing on chairs may well be the AI learning a defense mechanism against falling through the ground.
"Ground is LAVA!"

Given the nature of the time-frame that they're looking at for the 'gold' delivery of Star Citizen 1.0, if it's not fixed this patch then it's fair to say that even with the current lack of confidence in CIGs ability to fix this, based on supposedly numerous attempts, I mean, it's in the patch notes each time so they must have done something, right? Maybe, but then maybe not given the persistent failure to actually fix it. Anyway, if this patch doesn't fix it once and for all, then what does that say about the other things that are meant to be fixed/implemented/polished in this crunch of all crunches after a long protracted twelve year development cycle that has shown so little effective progress beyond the 'shiny thing sells ships' stage? But conversely, if CIG have managed to fix it once and for all, then to be fair, it would show that progress may be happening. Which one will it be? The transition from early days to late in the day has been quite swift.
