Would it be possible to have an option to reduce the number of buildings in cities to increase FPS without reducing graphics quality? For me, having many buildings doesn't make that much difference; the airport alone is enough.

If your device has weak hardware and suffers from FPS drops due to buildings, simply reduce the graphics quality to the minimum (low) in the graphics settings menu. This way you will have no buildings in the scenery and your FPS rate will improve significantly.

Wow, thanks! I thought that setting lowered the simulator's graphics, not the buildings themselves.

This graphics quality setting primarily affects the presence of 3D structures in the environments (buildings, houses, and other constructions). With the graphics settings at low or medium, the buildings don't appear, which is ideal for devices with weaker hardware, as is your case. With the graphics settings at high or ultra, these 3D structures appear more significantly and can cause FPS drops and lag on weaker hardware devices. For a device to run the simulator with these high or ultra settings, it needs to be very powerful, that is, with a very advanced processor capable of processing all these 3D structures that appear in the environment at a high FPS rate (generally above 30 FPS, which is the ideal rate for Aerofly FS). Since your device has weaker hardware, it's also a good idea to reduce the pixel intensity, and you can adjust this to 60% or 70% to improve the FPS rate as well. If you don't want the environments, airports, and planes to have very poor color sharpness, simply adjust this setting to 70%. The minimum setting of 60% can result in a significant loss of color sharpness, so I believe that a setting of 70% might be ideal for your device and your preferences.
