WarfareSims, qui a récemment signé un contract avec BAE Systems (une entreprise britannique travaillant dans les secteurs de la défense et de l'aérospatiale) pour utiliser Command : Modern Air/Naval Operations, vient de proposer un nouveau patch pour son wargame.

Les adorateurs du genre pourront se faire plaisir en consultant les 20 pages du changelog en cliquant ICI. Pour les autres, voici une petite liste des apports de ce patch 1.08 :

• New toys to try out: Anti-torpedo torpedoes and related torpedo-warning systems, new warhead types such as "superfrags", new weapon types such as "Contact explosive" (for the discerning saboteur or suicide terrorist), a brand-new ship type (Mobile Offshore Base (aka "Battle Island")), and more.
  
• User interface enhancements: Players can now observe the engagement arcs of a unit mount, permission-dependent color of targeting vectors, coastline/border fade-out on zoom (as in GE), the manual weapon allocation window can present to the player the "soft" restrictions (WRA/WCS/other doctrine settings), various tweaks to mission editor UI. etc.
  
• Simulation improvements: Major speed boost on large scenarios, more accurate uncertainty areas for long-range passive detections (SOSUS, ESM etc.), reliable sub battery recharge, improved sub-captain AI on chasing after unreachable targets, snap-up/down limits for AAW guided weapons, side-firing gunships (e.g. AC-130) now manouvering properly, more realistic UNREP transfer rates, speed-dependent aircraft IR signatures (that supercruise may now really cost you if the enemy has decent IRSTs), tweaks to damage modelling related to light-caliber automatic weapons, realistic "no scan while painting" limitation on older mechanical radars, and more.
  
• Scenario Editor improvements: "Can Auto-track civilians" side-level ability, Lua speed enhancements and more.
  
• Updated & rebuilt versions of all official scenarios, plus a new scenario addition to the official-bundled scenarios (Pyrpolitis 1-14, from the community scenario pack).
  
• A brand-new series of tutorial videos by Baloogan.
