January Roadmap:

Last month the majority voted to focus on adding new content to 3.0, and as a result over 300 new items, vehicles and objects were added! This month it's time to focus on the other side, creating a proper map to play on. 

Starting tomorrow work will begin on the Canada map, spanning from the East to West coast containing many national landmarks and interesting locations to visit. You can even expect the return of Prince Edward Island! New items and vehicles will also accompany the update to fill specific roles, such as clothing for the RCMP or stuff for military installments. 

Since this map will be so huge it will take a significant amount of time to complete, however frequent updates will be maintained providing information on the state of the level as well as bug fixes and optimizations. Fortunately I get a large portion of January off for diploma exams (which some time will have to go into studying for) so completing it within January seems like a reasonable target. 

3.4.8.0 Update Notes:

If you're interested in testing out this patch head on over to the Preview branch! You can gain access using the secret passcode "OPERATIONMAPLELEAF" in the Betas tab.
