Version 1.38.4.0 (Patch) - May 2026

This patch restores the highly sought after "mission target change", which enables mission leaders to change their target on missions dynamically as the battlefield needs require.

We've also made scaling capture timers 1:1, meaning if an 10% population imbalance exists, overpop has 10% slower capture timers, and underpop has 10% faster capture timers. This scales from 1-100% now.

Both items are 2026 Roadmap Deliveries!

Features

  • Mission target change.

  • Better scaling capture timers.

  • IVC Tab added to the main map screen.

Bug Fixes

  • Internally stored bombs no longer collide with aircraft on release.

  • Third person now renders and receives bombs accurately.

  • Single Garrisons have their "dot" restored on the game map.

  • Buzzard & Skull units now show up at the bottom of supply list(s).

  • Destroyer STO rounds reverted to vehicle target render range (up to 6000m).
