Hi everyone.

The new Map Editor has been added to Mission Editor section.
Is now possible to create maps of the same quality and performance as the default ones, and to share them in the Steam workshop. The new system includes tools to edit terrain shape, textures, add grass, holes and much more using simple brush tools.
With the new Map Editor also maps are not tied to missions anymore: You can now create a map and then create several different missions on them.

I'm really hyped to see what you can develop using the new tool!

Here's the general changelogs:

New features:

• Added new Map Editor.
  
• Many changes in lighting, day night cycle and post processing.
  
• Added dynamic Depth of Field when aiming.
  
• Vehicles can now be set as locked from Mission Editor.
  
• Added custom Squad Editor.
  
• Added blood splash decals.
  

Fixes:

• Improvements in wheeled vehicles.
  
• Improvements in trees.
  
• Improvements in weapons.
  
• Improvements on HE projectiles and explosions.
  
• Many other fixes and small addition.
  

Map Editor was the last important update for the game before the 1.0 release which will happen hopefully around Christmas.
We are still in time to add some more features and fix some more bugs for the release, so let me know what are the most urgent according to you.
Keep in mind that the release of the 1.0 doesn't mean that the game will not get any more update! There are still many more features that can be added for free while I'll finally work on the new Stalingrad DLC. (By the way, I'm searching for an help for map making for Stalingrad using the new Map Editor, if you are interested, please contact me on the Discord Server).

The reason behind the upcoming 1.0 release is that the contents that were originally planned for the game are finally complete; In fact, the game already feature much more contents then the originally planned ones, and that is thanks to all the feedbacks and suggestions I received, so thank you a lot to everyone who supported the game reporting feedbacks and ideas
Have a great day,
Marco.
