CMANO v1.10 Release Candidate [CURRENT: RC7 - B775.16]

Post by Dimitris »

Command v1.10 Release Candidate 1 - Build 775.10
======================================================================


Superseded by Release Candidate 2: fb.asp?m=4014782


CHANGES/ADDITIONS FROM v1.092 - B757.12
====================================================


===============================
USER INTERFACE
===============================

* MAJOR NEW ADDITION: Steam Workshop support.

To upload a scenario to the Steam workshop:

First of all this functionality is available only when running Command from within Steam (the Steam client must also be running).

First, make sure that the scenario has a title, that you have saved the scenario at least once to disk, and provided a description. Then on the "Editor" menu, click on "Publish scenario to Steam Workshop". This window should appear: http://i.imgur.com/kMgYhGG.png

You can use for the image thumbnail either a screengrab of the scenario map or a custom image. Press "Publish New Item", and after a few seconds you should receive the notification that the upload was successful.

To download scenarios you must first subscribe to them. Navigate to the CMANO Steam Workshop page (http://steamcommunity.com/app/321410/workshop/) and individually pick out and subscribe the scenarios that you are interested in: http://i.imgur.com/Swce6lJ.png
(Note: Currently the workshop page is accessible only to registered Steam customers. It will later become publicly accessible.)

On the next CMANO startup, these scenarios will be downloaded (or updated) to the "\Scenarios\Steam Workshop" folder, and be available for loading through the normal "Load Scenario" window: http://i.imgur.com/Ukk2IYg.png

To upload an updated scenario: Load the scenario in ScenEdit and click on "Publish scenario to Steam Workshop". Change any of the text fields or the image if necessary, and click on "Update Existing Workshop Item". A new window will appear, listing all scenarios you have already uploaded. Select the scenario that corresponds to the update that you have made and click on "Upload".


* NEW: You can now perform a missile strike with waypoints. For an example of such a strike see here: http://www.warfaresims.com/?p=4043

The procedure is:

1) Initiate a manual attack (Shift+F1)

2) Allocate weapons as usual

3) Click-selecting a salvo with weapons that support waypoints, the "Plot Course" button is enabled: http://i.imgur.com/8vPDNjw.png

4) Clicking on the button switches to "salvo course plotting" mode. The manual alloc window is temporarily hidden, and you see the current planned course (at the beginning this will be a straight line from shooter to target) and by clicking anywhere on the map you add an extra waypoint. You are constrained by the number of waypoints (10 max) and the overall plot distance (you're not allowed to plot a course that exceeds the weapon range).

5) To exit this mode press Esc or F3. Afterwards you can re-enter this mode with the same button or erase this plotted course with the "Clear Course" button.

Once the missiles are launched, they should follow the course you have specified.

* NEW: Nuclear-tipped ballistic missiles can now be set to detonate at high altitude (for maximum EMP effect) instead of directly attacking a ground target. To do this:
1) Target the missile at a target or aimpoint as usual, and create the salvo.
2) Right-click on the salvo and from the context menu click-select on "Special: High-altitude detonation". (Doing this again you can disable this)
3) The missile(s) in the salvo will launch as usual, but instead of descending on the target(s), the missile(s)/RV(s) will remain at high altitude and detonate over the aimpoint(s), maximizing the EMP effect.

* New game option: Allow automatically switching to High-Performance power profile. (Accessible through "Game Options" window). Default is ON. When this is enabled, upon startup the game will attempt to switch to the operating system's "High-Performance" power plan (if it is not already the selected one). This is very similar to what the "Process Lasso" app does (although only for the lifespan of the game rather than OS-wide), and can provide a useful performance boost. When Command shuts down, the original power plan (if different from High Performance) is restored.

* The "Unit Orders" top-level menu and the Unit Context Menu (aka unit right-click menu) have been streamlined (grouped related commands under sub-sections) to make them easier to navigate.

* New map display option: "Show mission area/course". Available choices are All, Selected (mission), and Do Not Show.

* UI tweak: the message log (and its canvas, if enabled) "grow" from the bottom of the map instead of rolling dwon from mid-height

* When the selected unit is ship or submarine, the cavitation speed is displayed on the Throttle/Depth (F2) window.

* TWEAK: Give focus to formation editor window if it is visible when selecting one of group members.

* TWEAK: Contact Report window gives better contact description depending on ID status.



==========================================================
SIMULATION MECHANICS & AI
==========================================================

* NEW MAJOR ADDITION: Aircraft kinematics & evasion agility are now affected by the aircraft's weight fraction; essentially a fraction representing the AC's current weight against it's "airshow" weight which forms the basis of all nominal kinematic & agility values. See here for example: http://www.warfaresims.com/?p=4091

Factors affected:
* Climb & dive rate
* Acceleration
* Turn rate
* Evasion agility

* NEW MAJOR FEATURE: Cooperative Engagement Capability (CEC).

CEC takes many forms. Examples:
- SM-6 ERAM can be launched from a surface ship and switch its datalink parent to another ship or to an orbiting E-2D.
- AIM-120D can be launched from an aircraft and guided mid-course from an E-2D.
- Heavy Soviet anti-ship missiles like the SS-N-3/12/19/22 can receive mid-course updates from Bear-D MPA and Hormone-B helo.
- Weapons like the GBU-15, AGM-130, AGM-62 Walleye II ER/DL and AGM-84E SLAM can switch datalink parent in-flight.

In order for a weapon to switch datalink parent platform, both the weapon and the candidate platform must support CEC (apart from the standard requirement of having a compatible datalink). For example, an old F-15C may be able to launch an AIM-120D and provide mid-course guidance to it but is unable to act as CEC platform for other shooters.

* Tech generation is now taken into account for noise jamming (OECM). Older jammers are less effective against modern radars and vice versa (see here for example: http://www.warfaresims.com/?p=4091)

* Electronic-scan radars (PESAs but especially AESAs) have strong resistance against noise jamming.

* New weapon feature: SAM/ABM warhead modifiers.

Several modern SAMs with ABM capability have advanced warheads (directional-frag or Hit-To-Kill) optimized for ABM operation. These warheads were developed as a result of the Desert Storm experience, where Patriot PAC-2 missiles (with normal continous-rod warhead) would frequently impact incoming TBMs but rarely actually destroy them, usually just causing them to deviate from their trajectory. The new warheads, and especially HTKs, provide a much bigger probability of physically destroying the target missile or RV.

These characteristics are now reflected in the simulation. This is what happens when the SAM impacts the incoming missile/RV:
- A conventional warhead has a 15% chance of outright destruction of the target, and a 30% chance of significant trajectory deviation (CEP increased by 3x). If none of these happens then the target missile/RV suffers only a minor deviation (CEP increased by 1.5x).
- A directional-frag warhead has a 30% chance of outright destruction of the target, and a 60% chance of significant trajectory deviation (CEP increased by 3x). If none of these happens then the target missile/RV suffers only a minor deviation (CEP increased by 1.5x).
- A HTK warhead reliably destroys the target every time.

NOTE: Trajectory deviations are cumulative, so an incoming missile/RV may be impacted multiple times by non-HTK ABMs and still survive but impact far away from its intended aimpoint (this happened in a few instances in DS).

AAW weapons with advanced warheads are also favored by AI crews in "best weapon to use" calculations, as their warheads also make them more lethal on anti-aircraft engagements.

* AI-controlled units can now perform cruise missile attacks with waypoints (where applicable). See this screenshot for example: http://i.imgur.com/PJCsVy8.png .
Generally the closer within weapon range the target is, the more "wide" the doglegs will be, so a unit shooting at the "edge of envelope" may not do a dogleg at all (this also means the player can indirectly control the dogleg behavior by manipulating the weapon-range WRA for the weapon in question). The entire salvo follows the same course, to maintain concentration of fire.

* Mine-hunting vessels on mine-clearing mission will now deploy their ROVs/UUVs (if any) only when they actually reach the mission area, not while they are still in transit.

* NEW: On multi-engine aircraft, engines are now treated as discrete components instead of a single "Powerplant" entity (for example a B-52 will now have 8 separate J57 engine entities). This doesn't affect anything ATM but will be necessary for the aircraft-damage improvements in the future (incl. damage from EMP). Existing scenarios have to be deep-rebuilt in order to feature this.

* Miscellaneous tweaks to reduce RAM usage, and significant performance improvements.







===========================================
SCENARIO EDITING & SCRIPTING
===========================================

* NEW MAJOR FEATURE: Special Actions. These are very similar to TOAW's "Theater Options", in the sense that they allow the player to execute a number of pre-defined special actions that may bring favorable results (or not - often the best way to model such actions is as high-risk gambles that can spectacularly backfire). Contrary to TOAW, Special Actions can range from the strictly tactical ("Host this SOF squad into the building") through operational ("request nuclear release") all the way to grand strategic ("The Assad regime requests assistance from the Russian Federation and makes Latakia airbase and Tartus harbor available to their forces").
Special Actions are created and edited through ScenEdit (Editor -> Event Engine -> Special Actions) and are made available to the player in normal play mode via Game -> Special Actions (disabled actions are hidden). Such an action may be one-off or repeatable (through Lua it can also be made active for only a finite number of calls, ie. "you may request this 3 times"). From a technical standpoint, Special Actions act as containers for Lua scripts so they can be very powerful. Once an action is executed a message (generated by the script) is shown to the player as to what happened as a result of the action, so scen authors are encouraged to be elaborate in their explanations.

* Major new EE feature: Lua scripting on Conditions. You can combine this with the existing event triggers to create very elaborate conditional triggers.

* The existing "Side Posture" and "Scenario has started" event conditions now have Lua counterparts: ScenEdit_GetSidePosture(SideANameOrID, SideBNameOrID) and ScenEdit_GetScenHasStarted() respectively.

* You can now order a unit to RTB via Lua: Using the existing ScenEdit_SetUnit method, use the "RTB" key (e.g. RTB='Yes')

* You can now host a unit to a suitable parent unit/group (e.g. aircraft to airbase, small boat to larger ship etc.) via Lua. The new method is: ScenEdit_HostUnitToParent(table). Usage example: ScenEdit_HostUnitToParent({HostedUnitNameOrID='Eagle 1', SelectedHostNameOrID='Bitburg AFB'}) . The unit to be hosted is 'snatched' either from mid-air or from its current host.

* The editor textboxes for Lua scripts now have a much larger character limit (tens of millions).

* New EE feature: You can now clone events, triggers, conditions and actions

* New Lua method: ScenEdit_SetSpecialAction. Usage example: ScenEdit_SetSpecialAction({ActionNameOrID="MyAction", IsActive="True", IsRepeatable="False"}). This is very handy if the scen author wants to activate/deactivate special actions depending on other events happening.

* New Lua method: ScenEdit_GetSideIsHuman('SideNameOrID') . Returns 'Yes' if the referenced side is currently under human control, 'No' otherwise.

* New Lua method: ScenEdit_SetLoadout. Usage example: ScenEdit_SetLoadout({UnitNameOrID="Viper #1", LoadoutID=631, TimeToReady_Minutes=45, IgnoreMagazines="False"})

* Scenario authors can now edit a unit's fuel level through Lua. Usage examples:
a=ScenEdit_GetUnit{side='a',name='test'}
print(a.fuel)
{ [3001] = { current = 240000, max = 240000 }, [4001] = { current = 3750, max = 3750 } }
fuel = a.fuel
fuel[3001].current=1000
a.fuel = fuel

* Added "Copy unit ID to clipboard" command to the ScenEdit section of the unit-context menu. This makes it much faster to grab a specific unit's unique ID and start using it on Lua scripts (vs. getting it from the SBR template file).

* An extra criterion, “minimum classification level”, has been added to the “Unit Detected” trigger. This allows the scenario author to tailor the desired level of target classification reached (everything from simply “detected” all the way to “precise ID”) before the trigger is actually fired. For backwards compatibility, the default level is “Detected – Known Domain”.

Aircraft stores actually having an effect on flight dynamics is something I always hoped for; so great to see it in now!
It might be nice to have a field in the DB for determining how much a loadout hurts agility, though.

I suggest changing this:
Steam customers:
Using the Steam client, on your games library, right-click on CMANO and click on the "Betas" tab: http://imgur.com/oFwIXzm
From the dropdown, select the "beta - Public Beta" option. This should queue up the download for the updated files.

to this:
Steam customers:
Using the Steam client, on your games library, right-click on CMANO and open the properties dialog. Click on the "Betas" tab: http://imgur.com/oFwIXzm
From the dropdown, select the "beta - Public Beta" option. This should queue up the download for the updated files.

Took me a minute or two to find it, but you'll undoubtedly have someone need walking through it.

Thank you, awesome update!

Also my a bit old computer thanks you, for this "Miscellaneous tweaks to reduce RAM usage, and significant performance improvements. ", it will be more relaxed when I play C:MANO![&o]

Well, I tried the new high altitude detonation option for ICBMs and it seemed so underpowered as to be useless. I had to use multi-megaton yield weapons within tens of miles of active radars to see any "hit by emp wave" messages. I was under the impression, and an image from an army study you can see on wikipedia's page on high altitude nuclear explosions seems to indicate, that instead this sort of attack should basically cover the entire continental US, but I'm just a layman.

Great work! Really like some of the in-game menu changes. More intuitive to use.

Plot course button is not clickable in this instance shown in the pic. However, I was able to F3 plot courses when they were launched. Is that normal?

1. Please post such questions ON THE TECH SUPPORT FORUM.

2. In order to support missile waypoints the scenario must be rebuilt with the latest version of the DB (the DB has the info on how many waypoints the missile supports).
