Played the hell out of 11.6 last night and I have to say its bloody good, the combat feels spot on and I haven't come across any bugs yet...

Getting excited for Southern Storm now.

Well done OTS :-)

Thanks! We are aware of two bugs and are fixing those. The air strike related bugs are fixed and we are testing. These and any others will get rolled up in the full 2.0.11 update.

Pekische, the full update will be rolled out on both Matrix and Steam when it is done.

ORIGINAL: Indirectlemon
v2.0.11.6 Beta – July, 2016

  • We also made some adjustments and improvements to the AI pathing for ground assault and helo movements. In both cases, the AI will look to use better approaches and avoid diving over exposed hills. Helicopters in deliberate movement (attack profile) will seek out low terrain to mask their approach to targets. Hasty moving helos (Returning to base or looking to cover ground) with look to stay low, but will crest hills if it is faster to the objective. We also caught and fixed a bug were the pathfinder would crash if the path went over a lake/large river hex.


  • Was this just for approaches, because my first play in a long time shows an old problem with helos not retreating away from the enemy. In the screenshot I snapped, the helos are moving over the hilltop towards and over spotted enemy units. They could and should easily retreat towards the west away from the hex they were hovering over, for several minutes while enemy units got within 500m. Sigh.

    On the bright side, everything is running smoothly and newer jpg graphics look fine.

    When can I see the official 11.6 version in steam? Sometime next week? Thank you for all the great works.

    exsonic, my steam updated this afternoon with the 11.6 beta. This is not the final full update. Make sure you have set the opt-in for betas on your red storm properties.

    pzgndr, while the plotting is more aggressive for the low ground, avoiding spotted enemies will be worked on for the Southern Storm AI. We need to separate the Helos out of a number of code routines to get them their own logic without fears of blowing something up.
