Helicopter Gunship DEX changes
This update adds the following...
Sector stats now correctly show the air defence and ground force strengths. These are now displayed as numeric value rather than a percentage value. The higher the number the stronger the force deployed at that sector is.
Ground force strength is calculated as follows...
Utility vehicles - 1pt each
Artillery units - 2pts each
APC units - 10pts each
IFV units - 20pts each
Tanks - 40pts each
Air defence strength is calculated as follows...
AAA units - 10pts each
Short Range SAM - 20pts each
Medium Range SAM - 40pts each
Long Range SAM - 80pts each
The displayed value is then modified by the RECON value so the higher the RECON value of a sector is the more accurate the Ground Force & Air Defence values become.
While this doesn't sound very exciting it is a required system for the new mission templates that will be able to analyse the current situation and work out the best place for a mission to take place.
This information will also be required by the Dynamic Campaign system A.I. ːsteamhappyː
Allied sectors are now automatically set to 100% RECON level
Fragmentation damage for the Shilka have been adjusted slightly as it is currently extremely deadly. Feedback on this very welcome.
Updated the Detector System which controls how units spot and identify targets so that they no longer spot you instantly when entering their threat zone no matter whether you were behind cover or not.
Updated the Detector System so that it can't see you so easily when you are slightly exposed behind cover. This allows you to peak over terrain etc a little easier without giving your position away.
