July 6, 2023 Development Update Blog Discussion

SeedyL had addressed a similar comment of yours two weeks ago:

So I’m not sure what answer you are looking for. DreamScenery is obviously going to continue pumping this stuff out.

  • Is that annoying? It seems to be for a lot of people, but as you can see from the poster above me, there are people who like them.
  • Is that to the detriment of P1 releases? It shouldn’t be, as it has been stated that anything P1 takes precedence over anything P2, and anything P2 is going to take precedence over P3, etc. Based on last week’s large release of night enhancement products, you could see from the numbers that they are considered P4. So they should be the lowest priority to get released.

The backlog rises when additional products get added to it, and P1 is no exception. When something enters the backlog, even at P1, it cannot immediately be released. It has to go through a process. Just as I said last week that it probably takes significantly less time to develop a product that requires adding a bunch of lights to an existing scenery versus creating a complex aircraft, likewise, I have to imagine that it takes less time to test a night enhancement product, too. We don’t know where in the process any particular product is unless the developer goes and says something about it.

So will the P1 backlog be non-zero from week to week? Yes, it will be, because they have to go through a process. Will the P1 backlog go up from time to time? Yes, it will.
