Update coming, arenas shutting down

Version 2.30 Patch 3 Changes
======================

Added a new autopilot mode that attempts to maintain the same relative position to your designated wingman (using the .wingman dot command) when it is first engaged.  It is not intended through any hard maneuvers and it has a maximum range of 1000 yards.  The default key for this command is Control W.  NOTE: This function may be unmapped in your keymap requiring you to manually map it.  It is under the flight section of the key mapper listed as Autopilot Wingman Mode. 

Made a data structure change to support more than 128 different plane/vehicle types.

2 very interesting changes...

I, for one, welcome our 2- or 3-boxing bomber formation overlords.

my guess around 128 or they wouldn't have  made the switch from 7 bit to 8 bit indexing

The latest addition, the Ki-43, has object# 127 or 128 depending if you start with 0 (as on the score page) or 1.

Some (all?) of the seemingly empty slots are taken up by things usually invisible like the Claw.

Good to see ya Wizer.

My guess is Yak 3, Yak 9 remodel, change to strat system in some way.

 

I gave up on updated Yak about 3 years ago and updated strat system shortly after they dumped ToD.

And none made a significant difference to the point where buffs have something to go for other than towns (followed by bailing out) and the only strat for armchair generals is which base to horde with a NOE raid next.
