- Single Mission Beta Update - 8 September 2026
This update adds the following...Optimised the missile guidance code so that guided missiles no longer cause a large drop in FPS when fired. In my testing guided missiles in flight now cost around 2-3 fps rather than about 30 previously! This has been something that's been bugging me for a while and I discovered I was doing multiple square root calculations which were not strictly necessary. The downside is the timer count down for Hellfire and Brimstone missiles now only updates every 0.5 seconds but this is something I can fix by doing a bit of interpolation between distance checks.Added in some error checking code to the infantry system which I believe was causing a GPU crash very occasionally if the animation system tried to update a dead infantry unit just after it was removed from the game. Thanks to Sola20 for sending in a detailed report and player.log which pointed me in the ri…

This update adds the following...Buttons on the MFD displays now show the correct controller glyphs. These dynamically change depending on the controller/bindings you are using.Fixed the back button on the Sierra Hotel screen so it takes you back to the main menu and not the settings menu.
- Single Mission Beta Update - 3 September 2026
This update adds the following...New REDFOR AAA unit. The ZSU-23-4M2 Shilka is a visually guided AAA system which won't give away its position with radar pings. It is less accurate but carries more ammunition and fires a longer burst than the standard ZSU-23-4M1.New mission modifier option as suggested by Apocalypse on the Discord channel. The "Recon Accuracy" allows you to modify the number of pre-identified enemy units. At 100% you'll see the normal amount. At 50% it will introduce a 50/50 chance that an identified unit actually remains hidden. At 0% no enemy units will be pre-identified so you'll have to do it all yourself ːsteamhappyːThis option is for those who want a little more of a challenge in their missions and increases the need to do proper surveillance to find enemy units.This option works outside the normal seed value so you can alter it without changing the mission itself…

This update adds the following...Single mission now detects when mission critical units have been destroyed meaning you should now hear the mission success radio message and be awarded 1,000pts in the debriefing screen.Single mission units are now placed to the South West of the sector making the flight time to the mission area a little shorter plus it places them in a nicer position.Mission support options can now be specified in the mission settings system. For this mission no support options are available.Mission location system has been updated so that positions can be filtered based on minimum and maximum distances from the sector.Mission location system has been updated so that positions can be filtered based on their angle to the sector. e.g. to target southern positions only you'd set an angle of 135 to 225Helicopter starting fuel can now be set in the mission settings.

- Single Mission Beta Update - 8 July 2026
This update adds the following...Corrected the DP point value for the single mission so that you can now start it and fly the mission.

You can fly it but it currently isn't possible to complete the mission.Terrain Resolution in the Video Settings menu has been changed so that the values are FULL, HALF & QUARTER.This setting now alters the terrain resolution which effects both the visible mesh, the collider mesh and the level of tessellation applied at close range.Running at QUARTER should provide a more stable FPS especially when the missiles start flying and you probably won't notice the drop in mesh resolution except when looking very closely at rocky ground.This setting is only applied to terrain as it is streamed in so adjusting…
- Single Missions Beta Update - 2 July 2026
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 eachArtillery units - 2pts eachAPC units - 10pts eachIFV units - 20pts eachTanks - 40pts eachAir defence strength is calculated as follows...AAA units - 10pts eachShort Range SAM - 20pts eachMedium Range SAM - 40pts eachLong Range SAM - 80pts eachThe 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 b…
