PATCH 1.08 CHANGELOG ====================

Artificial Intelligence

• Improved ground avoidance for low altitude flying of AI.
• Fixed AI continuing landing pattern when human lead switches from landing waypoint back to route waypoints.
• AWACS comms now continue if a package-assigned FAC is shot down.
• AI will use rockets more effectively on ground targets.
• Made AI more responsive on Weapons Free command for A-G missions - read the Addendum manual for further information about AI handling.
• Fixed issue where AI jets spawning on the runway would sometimes taxi onto the grass causing the departure queue to stall forever.
• Resolved problem where sometimes AI would sometimes chase after enemy A/C with guns instead of engaging with air to air missiles after a Weapons Free command was given.
• ATC gives more time for the player to leave the runway after landing.
• Fixed AI taxiing onto the runway without permission because they're going too fast.
• Refueling changes (also read the Addendum manual):
  • Inability of the tanker to refill external tanks fixed.
  • Large warps occasionally seen in multiplayer refueling fixed.
  • In realistic refueling model, the AI boom driver now applies forces to help position the thirsty aircraft.
  • In realistic mode, connecting to the boom now cushions the speed of the refueling aircraft.
  • In realistic mode, the player must now use the "Done" tanker radio command, the AI no longer does this on behalf of the player.
  • In simplified refueling mode where the AI is providing throttle assistance, a heavily loaded player jet would struggle to catch the tanker. This has been addressed.
  • Aircraft in the refueling queue will be ignored by the tanker if they fly away, land or are dead.
  • Subtle vertical stabilisation added as the refueling aircraft closes in on the tanker.

• Smoke marker rockets for FAC flights won't smoke when exploding in the air anymore.
• Fix a bug that caused the RWR to continue chirping when a beamriding missile was switching sensors or lost lock.
• Revised ripple bombing: the impact point shown on the HUD now designates the center of the bomb string.
• CCIP pipper in 2D cockpit fixed.
• Display own bullseye location in the HUD when Bullseye information is turned on (ICP Misc/Bullseye page).
• Fixed the 5900lbs limit sometimes imposed on refueling.
• Fixes for Helmet Mounted Sighting (HMS) system - read the Addendum Manual for more information.
• SAM units work more effectively now. Target selection (previous fixation on the lead aircraft) is improved.
• Alignment of radar displays in A-A and A-G modes fixed.
• During ramp start do not delay engine start with the need to move throttle.

• Improved 2000lb effectiveness compared to 500lb (2000lb slight increase in footprint/damage). Also, two 2000lb GP or PEN bombs will now destroy runway sections.
• Improved default loadouts against underground factories. More need for PEN type weapons.
• Adjust drag index on center rail with ECM pod or camera.
• Slight update on F-16 flight model (small leading-edge flag issue and F-16 block 40/42 weight adjusted).
• Added CBU-58/52 to center bay of B-52 (27 count).
• Fixed issue where F-117 would be tasked with no weapons on SEAD strikes.
• Fixed issue with some aircraft not being able to be destroyed (e.g. Mi-28, C-17, C-5, E-8).
• Fixed an issue where landing on an apron would destroy the aircraft (e.g. north-south airstrip).
• Fixed a issue where some aircraft would load a rocket launcher with no pylon.
• Raised canopy opening angle to 37 degrees for F-16s.

• Flights won't takeoff from destroyed aircraft carrier anymore. Squadrons with flights that were airborne are being relocated to a land-based airbase and continue to operate from there.
• Battalions planned to be stationary should do so more reliably.
• Stocks of fuel tanks added to some F-14 squadrons in Balkans.
• Fixed mission tasking on strike packages so escorts can be added by the ATO.
• On the campaign map, air-to-ground strike missions will now abort less frequently when under attack.
• Improved assigning of engineers to objectives.
• Engineer units now work more effectively, while adding some dynamics to repair times.
• Improved squadron relocation among allied teams.
• Fixed squadron relocation under some conditions.
• Fixed Balkans Powderkeg reporting stalemate without ending the campaign.
• Some other campaign triggers and report strings updated.
• JSTARS added to all Korean campaigns.
• Fixed some objective settings for Balkans campaigns.
• Fixed a couple of units in Korea Rolling Fire that were wrong type for team.
• Balkans PAKs adjusted.
• Names for batallions, brigades and naval units updated.
• 2005/2010 campaigns now have different reinforcement schedules to standard-timeframe campaigns.
• Adjusted some balancing for 2005/2010 campaigns.
• Addressed rare instances of the player aircraft colliding with another aircraft when the player moves from 2D to 3D when joining the flight already in the air.

• Fixed wrong TACAN channels on cockpit maps.
• Glance forward in 3D cockpit will now cover the whole RWR.
• Adjust 2D cockpit light level for NVG mode.
• Outside labels are no longer showing in front of the 3D cockpit.

• Floating buildings fixed.
• Give CBU-103/105 proper model/textures.
• Fixed self-illuminating light sources (like airbases) being darkened by cloud shadows.
• Outside labels are now translucent and fade with distance.

• Support for Hyperlobby added. The bandwidth is now set in the RULES OF ENGAGEMENT screen for Hyperlobby users.
• Commanding AI planes to turn on/off radar won't be automatically performed for human wingmen anymore.
• Fixed the black object textures for hosts re-entering the 3D world.
• Fix floating aircraft on the ground when several clients are connected.
• A few more fixes to the debrief.txt: show the correct aircraft type and list flight members in correct pilot slot order.
• All players can now hear ATC's Resume Own Navigation radio calls during climb-out.
• Fix wrong ATC voices being assigned to airbases.
• Sound loops fixed.

• Allow assigning victory conditions on naval units by right clicking on a unit on the TE map editor.
• Added the ability to password-protect TE's and remove OOB and ATO buttons from them.
• ACMI data processing progress now displayed on mission exit screen.
• Fix for dropped airmobile units not being controllable.
• Sometimes music would play at full volume returning to the UI after a multiplayer game, even when music volume was set to zero. This should now be fixed.
• Improved listing of rocket kills for mission debrief.

• Several more CTD fixes.

• New command line option "-print2file" will print briefing to Briefing.txt file instead of sending it to default printer.
• TrackIR can be initialized within 3d simulation in case you forget to start it before starting Falcon. Just ALT-TAB to Desktop, load TrackIR software, get back to Falcon and press ALT-C + T.
• Correctly load pilot/patch pictures in Targa (.TGA) format.
