Patch 4.10 - Development Updates by Daidalos Team

[ben_wh]

Brilliant, thanks for the good work as always.

Several points:

1) Someone else had commented already but your release timetable and features update is an excellent approach that more developers should adopt and emulate. Great work.

2) Regarding AI visibility calculation - are all AI units covered? (or perhaps only those units that can shoot at the aircrafts such as AAA, armed ships, AFV and AI aircraft?)

3) AI visibility - will there be any significant impact on performance?

Thank you again and looking forward to the patch.

Cheers,

Most likely is that all AI units will be covered.

I don't expect performance hit.

Radar can see through clouds and I've heard many stories of anti-aircraft gunners firing in the approximate direction of aircraft they could hear, but could not see. In the latter case the anti-aircraft guns should be largely unaimed, but they should still be firing.

Radar assisted AAA will be able to shoot. "Acoustical aim" is not necessary, hitting anything while shooting in general direction of target is almost impossible so that would only decrease PC performance without significant improvement in realism.
