The Silent Service DLC Returns
[p]Many of you have been asking when The Silent Service DLC will return, and we are happy to announce that after significantly reworking the scenarios to bring them up to standard it will be available for purchase and download from 10 AM PST / 6 PM BST today. [/p][p]We would like to thank you all for your patience and hope you enjoy the content![/p]

Command: Modern Operations v1.08
[p]Hello Command fans! We are excited to announce that update v1.08 is now live. This update introduces drone autonomy levels and brings communications jamming from CPE to CMO. [/p][p]In addition to this we have made improvements to Doctrine & ROE UI/UX and a host of other tweaks. A complete change log is posted below. [/p][p][/p][p]Command v1.08 Build 1674 Release Notes (changes from v1.07)[/p][p]====================================================================[/p][p] * MAJOR NEW FEATURE: Drone Autonomy Levels. For details see here: https://command.matrixgames.com/?p=5886[/p][p] * NEW FEATURE: Communications jamming (previously only in CPE, excluding scripting) is now also available in CMO. (See original article on comms disruption & effects: https://command.matrixgames.com/?p=4454)[/p][p]* NEW OPTIONAL SCENARIO REALISM FEATURE: ASCM terrain-following restrictions. When this (off by default) feature is active, early ASCMs who lack TF capability cannot overfly land with elevation higher than their cruise altitude (unit is actively blocked from firing, both in auto-fire and also through the manual weapon allocation window). If the weapon is fired nevertheless (e.g. BOL shot) and encounters terrain higher than its cruise altitude, it smashes into it. ( < This means that is possible, but risky, to fire such missiles over very low-elevation land terrain such as atolls etc.)[/p][p]Non-TF ASCMs with waypoint capability (e.g. Harpoon Block 1C) can be fired with a plotted course around landmasses, to avoid the "land between shooter and target" restriction when this feature is active. On the manual weapon allocation window, if the selected salvo has a suitable complex course that avoids landmass, non-TF ASCMs show up as "green" (can fire).[/p][p] * NEW SIM FEATURE: "Depressed trajectory" capability for certain ballistic missiles (Requires v512+ DBs). Missiles who have this capability will use the "low" trajectory option in any less-than-maximum range shot (the default behavior for most BMs is to use the "high" trajectory leg).[/p][p](Currently only the Russian Iskander-M/E and its North Korean analog KN-23 are flagged as such in the database. If you have sources for other systems having the same capability, feel free to share them on the DB tracker: https://github.com/PygmalionOfCyprus/cmo-db-requests/)[/p][p][/p][p]* MAJOR REVISION: Revised user interface and new capabilities for Doctrine/ROE window.[/p][p]- Instead of concentrating doctrine options on a single crammed window, they are now separated into per-category tabs. This makes it both faster to find a specific option and also affords more space for adding more options in the future: https://imgur.com/a/VKM1F8s[/p][p]- Doctrine settings may be automatically filtered/excluded if they are not applicable to the selected unit(s). In this example, a single ship is selected, and only the doctrine settings that are relevant to surface ships are displayed: https://imgur.com/a/lCv9k9j[/p][p]- The "mini display" of doctrine options in the right UI column has been removed, and replaced by a semi-automatic system of "doctrine deconfliction". The game attempts to detect common doctrine & mission conflicts (e.g. having WCS "hold" on a weapon while being a patrol with that weapon) and suggest to the player fixes for them; the player can then approve the fix change or ignore the suggestion. Example: https://imgur.com/a/c7DTRAB[/p][p]- Improved simulation stability & performance on doctrine-related paths[/p][p]- More responsive doctrine UI sections[/p][p] Includes the new v512 databases.[/p][p]- DB3000 v512 additions: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1PvOV1NivFzh_vrXKW-i_LIW0dlMIcQDC/view?usp=sharing[/p][p]- CWDB v512 additions: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1mB2Ko3DnI4Lfql-PZGdEFqjd105NAmaW/view?usp=sharing[/p][p]* Includes the thoroughly reworked & revised edition of "The Silent Service" DLC. All known scenario issues have been fixed, and a host of various tweaks and improvements made on each scenario.[/p][p]* Includes updated versions of Fail-Safe #1, #2 and #5.[/p][p]* Includes updated DB description files by Steve Lohr and KGambit[/p][p] * ADDED: Chainsaw/Grinder Movement Style for Patrol Missions (see: https://x.com/RSE_VB/status/1897710024937365913)[/p][p]* ADDED: Ability to select what datablock information is shown for units & contacts (just track number & name, or also kinematics, or everything)[/p][p]* Added: UI elements that give information on time passed and identifying unit for last reported position of out of comms units[/p][p]* ADDED: Banner with information about CPE shown at startup (can be disabled by checking the checkbox "Do not show on startup")[/p][p]* ADDED: New message type: Comms-related message. This handlesd all messages related to comms (suffering comms jamming or other disruption, re-jioning the comms grid etc.). Messages about events happening while the unit is off-grid (sensor detections etc.) are still covered by the "Comms Isolated Message" type.[/p][p]* ADDED: Added support for additional windows to Tool_UIWindow() Lua function: 'airops', 'boatops', 'readyarm', 'mounts', 'sensors', 'emcon', and 'magazines'[/p][p]* ADDED: \[Lua] New unit wrapper property to show aircraft flight range: :flightRange(throttle, speed, altitude). Setting parameters to nil implies using the current values.[/p][p]Example:[/p][p]local u = ScenEdit_GetUnit({name='Looking #1', guid='207d76e0-e5be-4012-bbc8-93a142bb5b7b'})[/p][p]print(u:flightRange(nil,nil,nil))[/p][p]Result = { endurance = 21863, range = 1214.61108398438 }[/p][p]* ADDED: \[Lua] "tracknumber" read-only property on contact wrapper-object[/p][p]* ADDED: \[Lua] Added ability to migrate scenarios:[/p][p]- Example for single use: print(Tool_Scen_Migration({scenario='D:/CMO/Scenarios/mine lua test.scen', config='D:/CMO/Scenarios/mine lua test.ini',dbfile='DB3K_510.db3'}))[/p][p]- Example for batch file: print(Tool_Scen_Migration({scenario='D:/CMO/Scenarios/batchfile.xml', config='batch',dbfile='DB3K_510.db3'}))[/p][p]* ADDED: \[Lua] Add loadout enums to Lua table[/p][p]* ADDED: \[Lua] New property .ToString for "Event" wrapper object (shows basic event info in a print statement)[/p][p] [/p][p]* TWEAK: The Sentinel-2 map layer now uses per-zoom-Level tile packing, which allows increased performance and also faster download and installation[/p][p]* TWEAK: The unit-status thumbnail and the DB-viewer now use webp (instead of jpg) as the image format. (You may temporarily have a shortage of shown images as these are repopulated from the server on-demand)[/p][p]* TWEAK: Re-enabled sluggish rudders[/p][p]* TWEAK: Various sim-speed tweaks[/p][p]* TWEAK: Various speed tweaks on map tile rendering[/p][p]* Tweak: no trails are created for ActiveUnits that are not operating[/p][p]* TWEAK: Removed "WRA cannot be fulfilled" messages since it might be causing confusion[/p][p]* Tweak: no trails are created for Groups to avoid artifacts[/p][p]* Tweak: \[Lua] ScenEdit_RunScript returns True if execution is succesful, False if execution fails, nil if execution does not even start or an exception is encountered[/p][p]* Tweak: Unit that goes out-of-comms now self reports an identified contact for itself, aiding other allied units in tracking its position[/p][p]* TWEAK: Tweaks on the Lua Console for better visibility of methods selection[/p][p]* TWEAK: Various tweaks & improvements on barks mechanism[/p][p]* Tweak: Passing through a support mission RP while refueling counts as having passed through[/p][p]* TWEAK: On contact datablocks, show the track number distinctly from the rest of the contact name[/p][p]* TWEAK: "Show Diagnostics" is now "True" by default[/p][p]* TWEAK: Faster and more efficient sorting of messages on message log window[/p][p]* TWEAK: Tweaked datablock rendering of contact track number according to NATO APP-6D symbology ("TN:XXX")[/p][p]* TWEAK: Significant threading & performance improvement on simulation engine[/p][p]* TWEAK: \[Lua] VP_GetContact now also supports track-number as the search key[/p][p]* TWEAK: \[Lua] ScenEdit_GetContact can now also use a contact's track number as the search key[/p][p]* TWEAK: \[Lua] The summary list provided by ScenEdit_GetContacts now also includes each contact's track-number[/p][p]* TWEAK: No-comm drones shouldn't engage targets when "drone autonomy levels" scen feature is not active[/p][p]* TWEAK: Enforced a more rigid waypoint altitude check in MDSP[/p][p]* TWEAK: #16623: Reduced the sidebar scrollbar size[/p][p]* TWEAK: #16636: Strike mission now defaults to focusing on target instead of engaging opportunity targets[/p][p]* TWEAK: When running in interactive-GUI mode, the simulation thread gets set to "Lowest" priority (This reduces raw sim-engine performance, but has two UX benefits: (a) It reduces the impact of sim execution on UI responsiveness (map zoom/pan lag, general UI lag etc.) (b) It reduces the impact of sim execution on the overall OS responsiveness)[/p][p]* TWEAK: Force the application at startup to run as DPI-unaware, and log this on the exception log as part of the startup info. (This is independent of the DPI setting stored on the registry, so if this works reliably players should no longer need to manually use the 4KFIx tool)[/p][p]* TWEAK: Air intercept missions have "Engage Opportunity Targets" ON and "Focus Entirely On Strike Targets" OFF by default[/p][p]* TWEAK: Updated collapse section code in DB viewer[/p][p]* TWEAK: Map refresh is now both smoother and more performant (higher FPS)[/p][p]* TWEAK: Reduced the impact of large message log refresh on the UI[/p][p]* TWEAK: Revised how ' targeted ' messages are added to the log[/p][p]* TWEAK: Increased accuracy

eliminated on Add\[component] type panels[/p][p]* TWEAK: Improved framerate / UI response for large scenarios[/p][p]* TWEAK: QoL addition for showing next waypoint in "Unit Status" when on plotted course[/p][p]* TWEAK: Flights with a mission profile that requires too much fuel are generated and a visual warning allows the user to tweak the flight plan (no changes when the side is not human controlled)[/p][p]* TWEAK: Cruise missiles have no boresight launch limits[/p][p]* TWEAK: Various sim-speed tweaks[/p][p]* MAJOR FIX: "Message Log" window still showing log items that are no longer in the simulation's in-memory log ( << This solves cases of past problem reports like "UI & sim getting incrementally more sluggish as number of log messages increases")[/p][p]* FIXED: Deserialization of last reported information for out-of-comms units[/p][p]* FIXED: #16469: (1567.5) Flight lead doesn't RTB when hitting bingo fuel while following plotted course, wingman does[/p][p]* FIXED: Number of

Command:MO - Fail Safe out now!
Fail Safe is the newest DLC for Command: Modern Operations. Set in 1965 - one of most fraught periods of the Cold War - Fail Safe features period accurate weapons and vehicles that will guarantee an authentic wargaming experience.

Guided missiles, early supersonic fighters like the F-104 Starfighter and MiG-19 Farmer, and naval vessels like the Soviet Sverdlov-class cruiser are just a small sample of the military platforms available in Fail Safe.

A 10% launch discount is up now on Steam.


From an opening scramble to recover a downed aircraft, ASW activities off the coast of Newfoundland, and the final battles of World War 3 where atomic weapons are finally unleashed - 12 missions will run you through the gamut.

Fail Safe is the pinnacle of 1960's Cold War air and sea wargaming. The closest you can get to seeing what would have happened if Western and Soviet naval and airpower had fought the war that truly would have ended all wars.

Good luck Commander, and remember to duck and cover.

Command: MO - Fail Safe out February 25th
Exciting news today as we announce Fail Safe, the next DLC for Command: Modern Operations.

Fail Safe is set in 1965 - during one of the most fraught and perilous periods of the Cold War. A Yak-27 has just crashed on the Svalbard Islands after a daring reconnaissance mission over Greenland. As Soviet and NATO forces race to the downed aircraft, a tense standoff is about to escalate into an all out shooting war.

Fail Safe will see you command both old and new platforms. F-86 Sabers and F-104 Starfighters will take on Mig-15's and 21's. Old ships like the HMS Victorious, a carrier veteran of World War II, will take on the newest ships of the 1960's like the Soviet November-class submarines and Sverdlov-class cruisers.

Old naval guns serve next to the newest anti air and anti ship missiles - every ship and air-frame in service will be needed.

The 12 mission campaign will see World War 3 fought out from the Arctic circle and the Atlantic to the Aleutians and the Pacific. Nowhere is safe from the Atom Bomb.

Fail Safe will be out on the Matrix Store and Steam February 25th.

Article - Modern warfare comes knocking: Side-enablers and GNSS disruption
Command team lead Dmitris Dranidis has a new article out on signals, drones, and the disruption of satellite navigation on the modern battlefield.

The Command team is working on implementing mechanics drawn from real-life examples of the interplay between orbital infrastructure and the ability of belligerents to deny and disrupt those assets.

These new phenomenon in warfare are being modeled as a feature we call side-enablers.

Command: Modern Operations v1.07 - Build 1527
Hello everyone. A small update today as Command takes the step to Build 1527. A good number of fixes and tweaks are included with this release, with the main features being the addition of a repeatable loop order for laying minefields.

In addition, this update takes us to the v509 release of the DB3000 and CWDB databases. You can find all the units added to the database in the changelog below

The full changelog is available below, happy hunting everyone!

Command v1.07 Build 1527 release notes (changes from Build 1487)
====================================================================

ADDED: Option for Repeatable-loop movement style for mining mission
ADDED: [Lua] Added waypoint wrapper to unit.course
ADDED: Added "Max Range" option to WRA firing-range selections. This allows differentiating between the weapon's explicit max range and the system default (which might be e.g. 50% of max).

Includes the v509 release of the DB3000 and CWDB databases.

CWDB v509 additions: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1-hKp9pGycHZ6eRZj1c6-2UfGxz5pKZsF/view?usp=sharing

TWEAK: Various tweaks for contrails:
- Contrails cannot be formed outside the atmosphere
- The temperature-at-altitude is now calculated dynamically from the sea-level temperature, using the US standard atmosphere model, so the altitude threshold for contrails forming now varies with the time-of-day and local surface temperature. (The temperature can vary widely with altitude: https://apollo.nvu.vsc.edu/classes/met130/notes/chapter1/graphics/vert_temp.gif )
- Airships and other craft using non-combustion propulsion (e.g. pure-coasting or nuclear) do not generate contrails
- Weapons using boost-coast propulsion generate contrails only during their boost duration. Weapons using "cruise" propulsion (e.g. turbojet or piston/turboprop) can generate contrails throughout their flight
- There is a "transition" layer between -40C and -50C temperature at which contrails can be formed but are weaker than at lower temperatures; this is reflected by lowering the visual size of the generated contrail by one magnitude (e.g. medium to small).
TWEAK: [Lua] Tweaks to AdvancedDialog

TWEAK: Enforce a hold and hold end WP/time for missions that DON'T have a TOT.
TWEAK: Area Clipper tweaked for more reliable shape intersections
TWEAK: Various tweaks to missile loft autopilot logics
TWEAK: Tweaks to post-loft terminal dive behavior, to maximize duration at higher altitude (shed as little speed as possible)
TWEAK: The Defining of RP areas will result into an error if there is not Side created to avoid crashes.
TWEAK: Drawing a Polygon RP will allow you to not create a zone.
TWEAK: Replaced infinite random selection to cumulative-weight random selection for component damages
TWEAK: Removed altitude blending (ie. fade-out on zoom-in) for borders and coastlines layer.
TWEAK: [Lua] Added package list to Lua mission wrapper
Various sim-speed and map-rendering speed tweaks

FIXED: "Group of groups" behaviors not working
FIXED: Borders & coastlines layer rendered inconsistently / "spotty"
FIXED: Mining mission properly uses the defined mining parameters

Command: Modern Operations v1.07
Hello Command fans. We are happy to announce that update v1.07 is now live. A complete changelog is posted below. In addition to a mountain of bugfixes, tweaks, and scenario updates - we have a few key new features to mention.

First off is true altitude/pin-cushion view. Aerospace units can displayed at their true altitude on the map. This is by default off but can be turned on by going to "Game Options --> Map Display --> Draw units at true altitude". This will hopefully help players visualize just where their aircraft are relative to one-another.

We have also revised the HTML-rendering backend using Microsoft's new WebView2 rendering engine, added contrails and wakes to aircraft and submarines, and added new fuel flow rate restrictions in air-to-air refueling.

These features are covered in more detail in the changelog below, so give that a good read if any of these new options and game rules strike your fancy.

Until next time, happy hunting everyone!

================================================================================
Command v1.07 (Build 1487) Release Notes (changes from v1.06 - Build 1328.xx)
================================================================================

* NEW FEATURE: Show aerospace units in their true altitude (a.k.a. "pin-cushion view"). Disabled by default (for now), it can be enabled in "Game Options --> Map Display --> Draw units at true altitude". When enabled, air & space units are shown in their true altitudes rather than as "ground-tracks" on the planet surface. To help visualize their vertical placement, a gray vertical pole is drawn from the unit to the surface (similar to Tacview's "Display Object Height" setting). If a unit is out of the visible viewpoint but its ground-track is still visible, the unit's icon is ghost-drawn at the ground-track position, to indicate the unit's horizontal location.

* ADDED: Revised HTML-rendering backend, using Microsoft's new WebView2 rendering engine. You should notice improved HTML rendering on the DB-viewer and other UI elements that use HTML sources. This also allows richer custom UI elements at the beginning of a scenario (e.g. to define custom options for the scenario, difficulty settings etc.)

* ADDED: Aircraft fuel on-load rate restriction (requires v508+ DBs). When activated, the bottleneck on A2A fuel transfer is not just the offload capacity of the tanker, but also the onload capacity of the aircraft. Also the calculation for transfer rate is now the same for CMO & CPE.

* ADDED: Indicators for aircraft contrails and ship/submarine wakes can be displayed on the map, under a unit's datablock. This makes it easier for the player to be more aware that his units may be visually detected at significantly longer ranges because of these factors. These indicators can be disabled on the "Map Settings" menu if they clutter the map unacceptably.
(Clarification: Contrails and wakes have been part of the simulation engine since CMANO's original 2013 release. This change adds visual indicators for them)

* ADDED: [Lua] New method "ScenEdit_WeaponAllocation" to show weapon allocation from attacker to target. Syntax: ScenEdit_WeaponAllocation(attackerGUID, contactGUID, attackingSideGUID)
1. supply attacker and contact GUIDs to see salvos generated between the 2
2. supply attacker GUID and empty contact to see salvos from the attacker to anyone
3. supply contact GUID and empty attacker to see salvos against contact. Note in this case, you MUST supply the side from which attacks are coming from.

* ADDED: [QOL] Possibility to copy and paste zones through the zone context menu (Shift+RMB)
* ADDED: Notification bark to let the player know if the AC reached the weapon release point too early (explanation for the occasional "hover on waypoint" behavior)
* ADDED: [Lua] Added TimeZulu to the flightplan WP wrapper
* ADDED: Formation Editor accessible in unit mode when group member is selected
* ADDED: [Lua] Function for resetting the message log: Tool_ResetMessageLog([Optional: Print First]). If the optional "print first" value is set to True, the message log will first be written out to \Logs\AALog.txt before being purged.

* Includes updates & fixes to these official scenarios:
- Standalone - Chasing Aphrodite, 2019
- Standalone - Iron Hand, 2014
- Kashmir Fire - 2. Retaliation
- Kashmir Fire - 4. Doomsday Clock
- Kashmir Fire - 8. Flaming Dragon
- Kashmir Fire - 12. Thunder From The Sea
- Showcase Ford Class

* Includes the v506, v507 and v508 releases of the DB3000 & Cold-War DB databases. This concludes the months-long China national overhaul, one of the most ambitious projects undertaken by the DB team (details: https://github.com/PygmalionOfCyprus/cmo-db-requests/issues/4131). The Command database is now arguably one of the most comprehensive open-source compilations of information on modern Chinese military equipment (excl. small arms).

* TWEAK: The flight planner will now always set the weapon release altitude according to the mission profile's "attack altitude ingress" value - allowing for minimum safe height
* TWEAK: Force sim to pause on File-> StartMenu
* TWEAK: Removed the obsolete "Test Scripts" top-level menu
* TWEAK: scenario duration color on Begin Scenario Button set to white
* TWEAK: Spread the OpenTopoMap tile calls to the three different known servers, to increase download throughput (and bypass throttling blocks)
* TWEAK: The slug-trails are now rendered as an actual fading trail instead of unselected ref-points
* TWEAK: Rotated icons and vectors at the edge of the globe will no longer show heading as if they were looked at directly from the top, but will instead be rendered as pointing to the heading they are actually moving towards
* TWEAK: On Docking Ops window, list the hosted units of each platform in natural-sort order
* TWEAK: Do not draw the mouse cursor databox if the mouse cursor is pointing outside the planet
* Numerous significant sim-speed improvements.
