oh well looks like it\'s going to be a nice game once it gets going good.
I\'ve been wanting to get into coding and development, so perhaps I\'ll be able to help out someday. In the mean time if anybody could point me in the direction of some good tutorial/reference material, it\'d be greatly appreciated. I\'m a complete noob when it comes to any kind of coding. I\'m just now learning basic scripting. I do know a little about modeling though but just switched to blender and have to learn the software. Anyway, thanks for the response, guess I\'ll just have to wait for an update.

UPDATE: I found that by unchecking the adavtive mode where the only option it distance, but no min fps or max fps.........setting the distance to 20, then down at the bottom where is says FPS cap: set this to 15 and there\'s still some lag but the game is much more playable now.
also for those recieving the error:
Mesh Factory naturalres#crystal_ruby not found
I haven\'t had time to check to verify but I believe the answer is on the main Planeshift homepage. In the topmost post there is a replacement zip that contains the needed resources
