In addition to that open talk, their is some models creators who are expert to create animations which are very complex , fortunately that is not the majority, and today we can continue to fly with MP , on our little computers without significant loss of cpu . Starting to animate every component on MP, will make some serious problem, but if we buy the last most powerful computer. On my side i get some fpu loss within MP when an aircraft is close to me. Before fighting against every <property> which begin with "/" Would not it be better to define a rule, what must be MP animated , what must be not.
