Closed Beta: Update #4
And one more patch today, lots of good stuff!
[h3]ADDED:[/h3]
● Touch Bending for vegetation with vehicles. Tanks and other vehicles will be bending grass and other plants when driving over them. This new option can be disabled in the settings. As far as we've tested, the performances don't really change.
● The units encyclopedia is finally available!
● Semi / Full auto for several infantry weapons.
● Switch from semi to full auto key binding in the settings.
● Semi / Full auto icon on the HUD.
● New toggle in settings 'Automatic zoom in when aiming down sight'.
● Difficulty modifier to infantry AI when it comes to engagement distances. Playing in hard will not affect its current engagement distance. Medium will apply a -25% max engagement distance modifier, while playing in Easy will apply a -50% engagement distance modifier.
● Info message when spawning in a ground vehicle letting you know that the engine is OFF and that you should press 'key binding' to turn it ON.
● Player icons on the map will now be facing the direction they are facing in the world.
[h3]CHANGED:[/h3]
● Removed the Y axis rotation freeze on ground vehicles.
● Removed the grip of the BAR as in most cases the soldiers didn't keep it due to weight increase.
● Smoothed out the change in velocity for ground vehicles when leaving/entering roads. They will now smoothly accelerate or decelerate. Ground vehicles move at their real life top speed on road, and at 50% of that off-road.
● Changed default keybinding to toggle the engine on tanks from K to E
[h3]FIXED:[/h3]
● There was a black fade in/out when your active crew died while you were playing in third person. Should have been first person only.
● I think this time trees are mostly fixed when driving them over. The tanks should be less jumpy.
● When you had the option 'hold down to sprint' and jumped, the character would not start sprinting again even if you had the key pressed down, you had to lift the finger and press the key again. It will now resume sprinting normally.
● You no longer can mash the stance keys anymore. You will need to wait until your character finishes his stance change animation before being able to swtich to another stance position.
● German Balkenkreuz on tanks was weird when seen through smoke/exhaust gas (as if it was not affected by it).
[h3]REMOVED:[/h3]
● 2 liveries for the P-51D which were post-war ones.
One more screenshot :)
