As has been said many times, this is a user forum. If you want to ask their developers about the next update, you need to email them directly: https://www.simplify3d.com/contact-us/

I've exchanged many emails with their employees and it's definitely clear that they are busy working on future updates, but feel free to ask for yourself if you would like :D

I have emailed them many times too, however they will say nothing about a release date for an update. Unless you actually see an update, I fail to see how it is "clear" they are actively working on it. You have no real proof of it, Unless of course you have access to beta versions. Its pretty easy for a developer to say "yep all good, its coming along nicely" when in reality nothing is happening at all.

One thing I would like to see is a roadmap of sorts. What is being worked on/planned for future releases. Even something non-committal would be nice to see.

My biggest wish is to finally not have to post process my gcode for printing to smoothie. For those curious read up on http://smoothieware.org/simplify3d . I regularly get gcode which will crash the controller and I'm more than a little tired of it.

Put your post in the script, and it will be transparent.
And, in the meantime, hound smoothie to fix their choking problem.

Good luck with that. Mere public mention of the issue sends Arthur Wolf into a major snit.

I would have to agree even if the developers can't commit to saying there will be an update 'soon' (next month, 2 months, 6 months!?), they should target scheduled releases. Much like google does, or for poor updates we could follow Microsoft with 'Patch Tuesday' which adds 0 features for the user.

We all have paid a considerable amount and updates is what true users thrive on. We want to see improvements please!
