    With the coronavirus getting worse. I am wondering if Lock down is required where Bemang HQ is,
    What plans do you have, Will the game be put on hold,
    Or will the game still be worked on in a home environment?

    gee a scary thought no doubt, hell in the eastern states there are already ten people (probably more as I write this) who are infected and they haven't been on the cruise liners or been to china at all. Gonna end up like that movie with Matt Damon in it, I thinks its called pandemic ?

    I live in Italy - currently the 3rd most affected country after China and Korea - and run a company right at the core of the local outbreak of the disease (Lombardy).

    Most of my employees were kindly requested to telework. I guess it's the same at BeamNG GmbH, especially given most of their workers from all over the world are used to working from their homes already.

    I honestly think They will just take a break from everything if it gets closer to HQ, they'll just go spend time with families rather than work

    Our team is rather distributed across the world, so remote work is already a part of the process. We are watching the situation closely and will follow all official measures and recommendations. No reason to panic as of now :)

    China needs to crack down on their street markets. It’s unsanitary and the cause of the virus. If they can’t do that then it should be shutdown until they can. Their economy isn’t the best but the government likes to censor everything and they seem to not care about their health. I’m not sure if China has health inspectors but they could use some.

    Let's please not get political as it does not suit the forum.

    The amount of news we receive here is obscene.
    All the news talk about this 24/7, and at the same time saying people not to panic, which is ironic.
    In my city there were 3 cases from tourist, and everybody blew things out of proportions, which is as dangerous.
    Wash your hands, keep some more regard about personal hygiene (which is not a bad thing to practice commonly) and personal space, and you should be fine.
