Finally got sick of me using bug reports for this, ehh? :p

Lakeville has a section of road missing, the gap can be seen from the world map.
Refugio has a section of road missing, the gap can be seen from the world map.
Whiskey has a section of road missing, the gap can be seen from the world map.
Larsen has a section of road missing, the gap can be seen from the world map.
Kania has a section of road missing, the gap can be seen from the world map.

Response:
Well, I haven't been doing as much driving as i use to, it's time consuming. This post was more so I wasn't shown as being asleep at the switch.

On many sim crossings the controls will bork and the bike will become uncontrollable, this didn't happen in the past. Object rezzing is slower, even in empty sims, and high fps sims. Land textures regularly do not load on the mini-map. Hit a restricted area on a sim crossing and your lucky if you don't ghost. Combine all these and driving become unpleasant.

When there are gaps visible from the world map on a sim boarder it usually means that the road way isn't properly re-enforced, the overlap is bad.

So you can't see the road as it hasn't rezzed, you can't guess where the road is based on the mini-map because the ground texture is lost, you hit a sim boarder and you a) ghost, b) controls break, c) sink through the roadway.

And then there are the places where the roadways cross a sim corner.

Lakeville, Refugio & Kania are taken care of.
I cleared some trees from the middle of the road in Whiskey but didnt see any other issues there. I didnt find any issues in Larsen either.

When letting us know of a an item that needs to be addressed, please provide the coordinates.

Thank you!

Strife, I understand you have quite a list brewing - was this it? I am disappointed! ;-)

If I could get the co-ordinates on Larsen I'll get on it this week. Thanks!
