So, we all know how terrain gets pretty hard to render at massive scale (ie. ~30 fps with a standard modern computer), yeah? Well, here's a proposition to help fix that. Won't be hard to implement at all, either. A Level of Detail system for terrain at a distance. It could also improve overall visual quality by removing that pesky little grey grid you can sometimes see in the distance ( http://prntscr.com/9x91j0 ). This Level of Detail system would have different developer-accessible settings such as what distance to start the detail gradient and where to end it.

or you could use legacy terrain and play pressing shift+10 to lower distance

Or I could not use legacy terrain and this suggestion could be implemented as it's clearly better than completely cutting off vision. Nice try tho.

Bumping this because I think they liked the idea. http://wiki.roblox.com/index.php?title=API:Class/RenderSettings/ExperimentalTerrainLOD Just found that on the wiki, came up on June 16th. (I check the wiki frequently, decided to google it)
