SU6 Scenery Level of Detail Survey

[TenPatrol]

Changing camera views forces terrain to be re-rendered. Instead of keeping already loaded scenery (such as mountains and terrain) in RAM/VRAM, MSFS 2024 reloads and redraws it every time the camera changes. This causes unnecessary terrain pop-in and performance drops, even though the scenery was already visible moments earlier.

For comparison, here is how changing views looks in MSFS 2020
