Divided various AI commands to 'AI auto pilot commands' and 'AI crew commands' and 'COMM menu commands'.

• About Meta Quest Standalone Port - 8 November 2025

  I had been receiving some requests for Meta Quest Standalone port of Defender Patrol. I never had any experience in developing a standalone VR, let alone an android app, but nonetheless I also thought it would be awesome to play in standalone headset and decided to give it a try in this week. Unfortunately, The porting attempt was not successful. The android devices were far more weaker than I expected. No matter how many features I strip down to make it work on weaker machines, the game was simply unplayable in Quest 2, and barely worked in Quest 3. It ran alright in completely empty maps, but once the engagement happens with any enemies, which is the crucial part of the combat flight simulator, the framerate dropped rock bottom. When I removed all the important features of the game just to make it work on meta quest, the game could no longer be called 'Defender Patrol'. After many eff…

• v2.52 Patch Notes - 8 November 2025

  Added 'Recenter VR' keybind. Keybind settings are now saved in local files and can be shared with Steam Cloud(Supporter Edition only). As a trade-off, all the keybinds from the previous version no longer works. (Sorry!) Added some initial random aiming errors to low-tier units like infantries to reduce the chance of instant death in close range. The amount of error varies with AI skill levels. The player can no longer fly outside the island. Fixed softlock issue when the helicopter had ran out of fuel but landed safely with autorotation. Fixed overly exaggerated effective translational lift effect. when the helicopter flies in over 24 knots, the rotor blades become around 2 times more efficient than during hovering, instead of around 8 times. And the amount of induced flow between forward and backward sides of the disc are not equal, causing more right roll tendency during forward fligh…

• v2.51 Patch Notes - 2 November 2025

  Added Unbinded key warning in training when the important keys are unbinded. Reduced the Unit's turret rotation speeds to the more realistic level. Some updates in Polish translation.

• Important Notice - 1 November 2025

  It had been over 2 years since I started working on this small flight sim. it was truely awesome to make my own dream game and share it with others in the community, and eventually make it to steam release! At this point, my dream of flying MD-500 defender in VR had now been accomplished and the project is far beyond my initial scope. But i do not want to just stay here forever. Now I want bigger choppers(e.g. AH-1 Cobra), better scenery, and some engaging campaigns with pilot career progression to fully utilize all the features I have created in "Hijong Park's Defender Patrol". Recent v2.5 'Last Service' patch was the final major update for Defender Patrol. After this, I'll start focusing my development time on the sequel, 'Low Level Hunters'. The only updates for Defender Patrol will now be some fatal bug fixes and additional localizations. (German, Russian, and French localizations a…

• v2.5 Patch Notes - 1 November 2025

  Added custom mouse cursor. This mouse cursor can be used in VR mode, and It can also be controlled with joysticks via "Cursor Axis" and "Cursor Press 1". Added Unit inspection feature. By designating a target with TSU and pressing "Inspect designated unit", you can quickly access to the informations about the designated unit. Binded to I(i) by default. Added frame counter, which can be enabled with "Toggle frame counter". Binded to ＼(backslash) by default. Added a digital clock on the instrument panel telling the current time of the day. Added Cyclic and Collective position trimming feature in VR. By moving the levers around the collective or right side of the chair, you can adjust the positions of the collective and cyclic. This trimmed position remains persistent after leaving the game. Changed rearming camera view in VR to prevent nausea. Improved training marker message positions, p…

• Day One Patch Notes - 25 October 2025

  Added "Camera" tag in settings. Moved TrackIR enable option to "Camera" settings tag. Implemented different method for zooming Instead of the 3 stage zoom, it zooms gradually while holding down the button. Added Camera FOV zooming speed and max FOV slider. Added reset zoom keybind. Added 'Automatic cursor activation' option, which automatically activates interaction cursor when moving the cursor, and then deactivates when not moving it for 3 seconds. Mouse cyclic is disabled when this option is enabled. Added SNEB type 23 HEAT rocket for enemy SA-342L gazelles. Added Telson 12 and Telson 22 rocket pods for enemy SA-342L gazelles. Added dedicated ATGM launch button on copilot seat's TSU control stick.
