• Tweaked: Volume of building part destruction increased
• Tweaked: Substantially increased damage but also decreased effective firing range of 80mm and 60mm unguided rockets
• Tweaked: GL carrier rigs and their geometries
• Tweaked: Condition for releasing from ambient animation adjusted to be less demanding (it is using a check for 'COMBAT' behavior in the first place)
• Tweaked: Difficulty changes:
  • Vision Aid dots limited to Recruit preset
  • Extended Armor limited to Recruit preset (relates to personal protection balancing)
  • Holding breath when diving made consistent across all presets
• Tweaked: Optimized performance of 20 & 40 mm grenade shells:
  • Scaled down impact damage of 40 mm grenade shell. It is still well capable to destroy MRAP wheels as it is supposed to. Splash damage remains unchanged.
  • Scaled down impact damage of 20 mm grenade shell (so that impact is less powerful than a 20 mm bullet) by 50%, but increased splash damage by 50% (needed for GMG)

However, fuel and ammo supply death explosions now destroy anything in their supply radius (10 meters). This is supposed to overcome issues with limited supply capacity and with repeated resupplying of the supply trucks and containers. All the respective scripting commands work as before, as the respective supply parameters were simply increased by several orders of magnitude.
• Tweaked: Collision models and rotation axis for turning animations of characters
• Tweaked: Decreased total minimal hit threshold so that even pistol bullets are able to score some trivial total damage through vests

• Tweaked: Raised armor of planes to make them more durable
• Tweaked: Adjusted aimPrecision in various stances
• Tweaked: Sitting down movement animations
• Tweaked: Sway distortion upon turning is now more affected by weapon inertia. Smaller weapons are therefore more stable while turning around, while heavier guns are harder to handle upon turning. Magnitude and speed of turning are also considered.

  • Task structure and attribute indices are now defined in separate define file
  • Only changed data are transmitted over the network
  • Task variables were massively shortened to save some traffic
• Tweaked: FFV limits for military trucks switched to new technology
