Some developers have their 3D objects ( eg : city objects , chimneye , oil tanks etc ) show up at at 30+ mls away. That costs performance. Especially on lower end / multi monitor systems.
It would help a lot If the 3D objects had a LOD slider too , like the AG radius slider. And beside the SC slider.
And maybe airports could be excluded from the 3D LOD slider ( circle around an ICAO ).
