If you would make the effort to compare commits, you'll see that contributors for Co are mostly fiddling with:

- the UI (pixels here, different label or color here - just check the commits by "Yannik Bloscheck"!)

- adding objects to the map, which are not often justified (like rendering single(!) trees and tree rows, which is from a performance POV insane)

- translations / strings

They rarely touch navigation, the engine, or sensible refactoring tasks.

The whole project lacks organization and clear, structured goals. Ever heard about too many cooks?

It was, especially to the agitators like Konstantin "Pastbin", more important to obtain increased authority and power and their own branfing, while complaining about financing and perceived transparency issues; this were huge contributing factors for the split.

I couldn't give a rats about how donations are spend or if there's a "community council" or a registered entity behind a tradematk / app, if the outcome / product is suitable.

What i care about is an organized vision and structured approach by founders.

PS: The CDN middleware ("map generator") was made closed source due to too many freeloaders hogging onto their map CDN. Get your facts straight.
