The release behavior isn't used yet, but I'm working on pre-allocating
laser codes for front lines and flights to make it easier for players to
pick the laser codes for their weapons.
* Store a deque rather than an iterator so it can be pickled
* Remove mangling from staticmethod (and rename now that it's no longer
a generator)
* Rename "get" to "alloc" to make the mutation clear
* Move to its own package (the changes I'm working on make this no
longer mission generator specific)
* Remove useless exception class. It's never caught so the unique type
isn't needed
These are read unconditionally, but were only initialized when the
coalition had nodes. When a coalition had no nodes, this caused a nil
access. It's unclear if that had any symptoms, but I expect at the very
least it would break the remainder of the script (so a non-functioning
blue IADS if the red IADS had no nodes).
There's a very small chance this is the culprit behind
https://github.com/dcs-liberation/dcs_liberation/issues/3073.
Added a new option in settings: Convert untasked OPFOR aircraft into client slots. This option will essentially convert the campaign into a sort of team vs. team engagement. There is still no way to plan the OPFOR missions, and there are no guarantees that there even will be any untasked aircraft available for players.
Split the Disable idle aircraft at airfields setting into Disable untasked BLUFOR aircraft at airfields and Disable untasked OPFOR aircraft at airfields.
- Plan number of aircraft more accurately
- Fine-tuning ingress waypoint tasks
- Add lineup waypoint for STRIKE flights, 10NM in front of ingress on the same heading as the target
Restores handling of TheaterGroundObject targets in antishipingress.py
This is needed when anti-ship missions are planned against other ship groups than NavalControlPoints (carrier groups or LHA strike groups).
* Added a separate Doctrine page in settings with the following new options:
- Minimum number of aircraft for autoplanner to plan OCA packages against
- Airbase threat range (nmi)
- TARCAP threat buffer distance (nmi)
- AEW&C threat buffer distance (nmi)
- Theater tanker threat buffer distance (nmi)
Implemented handling for the OPFOR autoplanner aggressiveness in objectivefinder.py vulnerable_control_points().
* * Added three new options in Settings:
- Autoplanner plans refueling flights for Strike packages
- Autoplanner plans refueling flights for OCA packages
- Autoplanner plans refueling flights for DEAD packages
Fixed a bug in faction.py where F-16Ds were not correctly removed from the faction when the F-16I/F-16D mod was not selected.
* Renamed Maximum frontline length -> Maximum frontline width.
* Roadbase and ground spawn support
Implemented support for roadbases and ground spawn slots at airfields and FOBs. The ground spawn slots can be inserted in campaigns by placing either an A-10A or an AJS37 at a runway or ramp. This will cause an invisible FARP, an ammo dump and a fuel dump to be placed (behind the slot in case of A-10A, to the side in case of AJS37) in the generated campaigns. The ground spawn slot can be used by human controlled aircraft in generated missions. Also allowed the use of the four-slot FARP and the single helipad in campaigns, in addition to the invisible FARP. The first waypoint of the placed aircraft will be the center of a Remove Statics trigger zone (which might or might not work in multiplayer due to a DCS limitation).
Also implemented three new options in settings:
- AI fixed-wing aircraft can use roadbases / bases with only ground spawns
- This setting will allow the AI to use the roadbases for flights and transfers. AI flights will air-start from these bases, since the AI in DCS is not currently able to take off from ground spawns.
- Spawn trucks at ground spawns in airbases instead of FARP statics
- Spawn trucks at ground spawns in roadbases instead of FARP statics
- These settings will replace the FARP statics with refueler and ammo trucks at roadbases. Enabling them might have a negative performance impact.
* Modified calculate_parking_slots() so it now takes into account also helicopter slots on FARPs and also ground start slots (but only if the aircraft is flyable or the "AI fixed-wing aircraft can use roadbases / bases with only ground spawns" option is enabled in settings).
* Improved the way parking slots are communicated on the basemenu window.
* Refactored helipad and ground spawn appends to static methods _add_helipad and _add_ground_spawn in mizcampaignloader.py
Added missing changelog entries.
Fixed tgogenerator.py imports.
Cleaned up ParkingType() construction.
* Added test_control_point_parking for testing that the correct number of parking slots are returned for control point in test_controlpoint.py
* Added test_parking_type_from_squadron to test the correct ParkingType object is returned for a squadron of Viggens in test_controlpoint.py
* Added test_parking_type_from_aircraft to test the correct ParkingType object is returned for Viggen aircraft type in test_controlpoint.py

- Fixes ferry flights causing errors when "Nothing" is not available
- Logs a warning when a frontline stance is suddenly no longer available and uses defense stance as fallback which used to be the default. An investigation is still required to determine the cause of this...
