Build 462 (beta) ------------------------ Fixed: ----------- - 0005094: SARH missiles are overshooting a lot - 0005864: Wake Homer seeker too weak? - 0005002: Path for wire guided torps is not updated when target changes speed/heading - 0005820: [442] 53-65K WH Wake Homing Torpedoes - FIXED: Unit Status text formatting - FIXED: SAMs engaging strangely - FIXED: Torpedo passive seeker error - FIXED: Torpedo warhead effectiveness - FIXED: Deactivate speed/alt presets via unit status * New major UI feature: Quick-jump slots. This allows the player to quickly & easily jump between locations/views of the battlefield without map zoom/pan delays. How they work: a) To store a slot: Select a unit/contact. Press Ctrl+[num], where [num] = 1...0 . The unit selection & camera altitude are now stored on slot No.[num] (and persisted per-side). b) To jump to a saved slot: Simply press [num]. If a slot with that index exists, the camera will move to the marked unit location & altitude. If you are using tracking-camera when saving a slot, this setting is also saved and enforced the next time you jump to this slot.

Another little fix that will go a LONG way to enjoyment of the game.

Dimitris -> RE: Build Roll - mirror (11/23/2013 3:41:57 PM)
Build 465 (beta) ---------------------- Fixed: - 0005587: MiG-29 launches AAM at outdated contact - 0001531: 'Dead' anti-air missiles should fly in a straight line - 0005915: De-select manual speed&course settings problem - 0004879: Function keys also close windows - 0001264: Desired speed label doesn't change with altitude - 0002780: General program infrastructure] Speed settings labels - 0004784: Re-directed ESSMs go after targets far off-line - 0004811: Current loadout should be highlighted in loadout selection window - 0005234: [413] Non friendly air units over water show AGL above seabed, not sealevel - 0002855: AMRAAMs fly in strange directions - 0005300: Make unavailable loadouts be printed in a different colour than the available ones. - 0005319: Release and document KML-to-INST tool (Flanker) - 0005409: Aircraft descent rates are too high - 0006042: Ready Aircraft Dialog: Text issue - 0006021: [461] Climb Rates or aircraft - 0006013: [461] AS-14 Kedge [Kh-29L] running blind - 0005670: Operating Radius displayed in ready ac dialog - 0005566: Altitude still reports meters in some windows... - 0005509: Hotkeys that open windows should also close those windows - 0006076: [464] Edit AC Ready Immediately crash - 0005767: User not able to destroy a hardened shelter with SDB- Check these out - 0005480: [422] Tanker retains Offloading fuel status when I rtb the aircraft that was supposed to tank - 0005668: Interrupting air-to-air refuelling will still show "refueling in progress" on the tanker - 0005679: Su-25 cannot illuminate ship targets for AS-14s * FIXED: Missile impact problems on coarse (1-sec pulse) time mode. * UI addition: Mouse preview mode. When hovering over a non-selected unit/contact, the selection & datablock information for that unit is displayed slightly ghosted. This is useful for quick-look info (without having to display datablocks for all units) and particularly handy when targeting contacts. * Sound effects are now played on a single channel (HC97-style) instead of multiple parallel channels. This fixes the distortion & crackle problems when too many effects were played concurrently. * Background music is now available. This can be enabled/disabled through Game -> Game Options -> Sounds/Music. Players can add more soundtrack files (MP3) to be played randomly, by placing them on the \Sound\Music folder. The included track is the "official" Command soundtrack (the one from the promo trailer).

Not intended? - 0006079: DBViewer crashes always Two significant UI upgrades: * Secondary windows now remember their last position and size (these are saved on the Command.ini file so they can be tweaked offline). So you can set up your desired "working environment" once and the windows will retain the customizations accross scenarios and game sessions. To reset the locations & sizes to their default values, click on the button "Reset positions of secondary windows" on the Game Options window. * Secondary windows now correctly minimize/maximize together with the main game window, and they no longer visually block other program windows.

thewood1 -> RE: Build Roll - mirror (11/27/2013 10:36:22 AM)
So am I correct to assume that ships will still not engage ANY enemy ships unless they are in a mission?

Dimitris -> RE: Build Roll - mirror (11/27/2013 11:00:36 AM)
We're looking into that. No need to needle us about it. This needs to be configurable, because there will be _many_ instances where you do want your ships (and your planes, and your subs, and your land units, and everything from a rifleman to an ICBM silo) to hold fire even in the clear presence of enemy units. You are thinking one tactical situation, we have to think all gazillions of them.

You are thinking one tactical situation, we have to think all gazillions of them. Just an idea, and I don't know how wise and/or feasible it would be... Would it be possible to set up a radio button in the Editor that says "Unassigned assets will/will not be randomly added to missions." That way, if you want things to sit quietly, they will; if not, the game will choose a mission for anything that is not in a mission...it may not do what you would expect, but at least it will do something! :) The other option, of course, is just make sure any non-player sides have missions for their various units. If nothing else, "Strike," if I understand it correctly, means, "Go after anything in range you have identified as hostile." That should usually do the trick. A related idea...maybe somewhere the development team should post "typical behaviors created by various settings" (if "typical behaviors" exist) so that people have a better idea of what their instructions in the Editor actually mean to the game in terms of what the computer-run sides will do. Anyway, I hope all this helps. Mark

Nice list of fixed things. Manual dipping sonar will be useful. Thanks!

GBS -> RE: Build Roll - mirror (11/27/2013 2:42:19 PM)
So many changes and improvements since 460. When will we have a chance to get our hands on, at least,467?

thewood1 -> RE: Build Roll - mirror (11/27/2013 2:47:26 PM)
I am not needling you. I am trying to understand. I wasted a lot of time working on scenarios I thought I had screwed up. I never in a million years would have thought that a ship is on hold fire against surface threats unless in a specific mission. I don't want to waste any more time building scenarios if I can't expect a ship to engage any hostile ship it encounters without it being preset in the scenario. That is an incredibly limiting feature and one that still confounds me. I have found nowhere that it was mentioned that you had to have a mission to engage in surface combat until it was brought up over a week ago. a huge issue like that should be spelled out clearly in any scenario design manual or tutorial. I do a lot of ASuW scenarios and it basically brought my use of the game to a halt.

thewood1 -> RE: Build Roll - mirror (11/27/2013 3:18:45 PM)
I played several naval warfare games and it has always seemed to me a "weapons tight" vs "weapons free" is a pretty simple solution.
