Improvements to DIRCM

The missile used to know where it was at all times, then it took a laser in the seeker!

In the upcoming major update, we’ll be releasing an overhauled version of DIRCM that addresses several shortcomings.

Improvements to the Controls for CCRP Bombing!

CCRP Bombing, now simple and easy to understand!

In the upcoming major update, we’ve reworked the controls for CCRP (Constantly Computed Release Point) bombing. The previous mechanic was sufficient when CCRP was a niche tool used by only the most experienced pilots.

The old interface however does have some drawbacks. We’ve...
