    Title: Shadows
    Reproduction Rate: 100%
    Blocker? No.
    Details: When I'm up close to a light source on my lot (see the first screenshot), shadows are on and they look really good. When I back off just a few steps, the shadows fade away (see the second screenshot) and I'm left with a scene that looks like a crappy video game. I understand that you want to turn off shadows for performance reasons but please consider these points:
    • When you turn off shadows like this, there is zero difference in frame-rate on my machine.
    • When I'm on a lot, I would rather have a slightly lower frame-rate than a crappy view.
    • There should be an option to force shadows to be always on for the lot that I'm on. Other lots I don't care about. I just want to see the decorations on a lot in the best way possible.
    Steps to Reproduce: See "Details".
