New content

Added camo shorts (default and medium pattern) and open variants of the A6 and MSK1 helmets

Material settings for equipment

The materials of placed equipment items can now be adjusted in the battle editor.

Custom units in ground vehicles

The units in ground vehicles can now be changed directly from within the battle editor. Units with mounted vehicle weapons will use them regardless of their own weapons. Other units will try to use the weapon that they were assigned to in the unit creator. Drivers cant be changed, but are usually not visible for most vehicles.

Animate position/rotation of passive units

The position and rotation of passive units can now be adjusted while creating passive animations.

  • The position and rotation always works as an offset based on the starting positiong and rotation of the unit, when the animation starts

  • Navigation areas are ignored, so units can fly and move anywhere within a 50x50x50 area from the starting position. At the same time, navigation to the passive unit is supported if it's moved on the navigation area.

  • Functionality of scripting nodes like teleport/move/rotate is limited while the animation is playing

Extended character support for notes and signs

Different character sets can now be used on notes and signs. Please note that using non latin characters does have a small performance impact. The supported characters depend on the used font.

Other improvements

  • MP3 -files can now be imported! It's still recommended to use ogg files for best performance and quality/size

  • Unarmed player attacks are now directional similar to other melee weapons

  • Corpses and passive units can now hold grenades and support equipment in their hands

  • Overwriting files will now show the name of the file to be overwritten

Engine update & system requirements

  • The engine has been updated. This update includes 3 major LTS versions, so a lot of stuff had to be adjusted, but has already been tested in preparation of this update. If you notice any new problems, please report them on steam or the discord server.

  • The MacOs builds are now finally discontinued (after dropping support and removing the platform from the store almost exactly 5 years ago).

  • Windows 10 21H1+ is now the minimum OS-requirement (was Windows 7, which is no longer supported by Microsoft)

  • Ubuntu 22.04+ is now the minimum OS-requirement (was Ubuntu 16.04+)

Bug fixes

  • Fixed that quick scripting inputs lost their references when copy/pasting/placing prefabs

  • Fixed a bug that caused unit icons to miss some custom equipment items

  • Fixed that shooting passive units could lead to frozen animations due to impact effects

  • Fixed functionality of the UseSupport node

  • Fixed attack problems when starting to control an unarmed unit

  • Fixed some cases where the editor UI could become broken when using certain actions (like Undo while editing dialogs)

  • Fixed cases where ranged AIs could become stuck without reloading

  • Fixed nested array access for direct underlying arrays

  • Fixed missing error checks when using materials mappings for arm/leg presets
