The check for whether or not the escort is actually needed happens later, and thus the mission can still be scrubbed if it's too dangerous. However, missions should not be scrubbed when a particular escort type is unplannable, yet not needed. Only if the primary flight type is not plannable should the mission immediately be scrubbed
When a new payload file would be saved, the subsequent flight would always throw an exception (until Retribution would be restarted) because the payload_cache wasn't updated until now.
Added a check for the existence of a payloads folder. Also made the _save_payloads lookup and path generation the same as _backup_payloads method to have consistency.
Adjust 'should_halt_sim' conditions for taxi & takeoff flight-states, fixing an infinite loop that would occur if the FF-interrupt setting would not match with the start-type of the flight
* Auto-ato AWACS & Tankers settings
Split off the **Automatic AWACS package planning** and **Automatic Theater tanker package planning** settings from **Automatic package planning behavior** so players can choose to have AWACS and theater tankers auto-planned, while managing everything else themselves.
* Drop logic to child-classes
* Enable AWACS auto-planning by default
* Switch order of preconditions

Changes to the original "1968 Yankee Station" are: More FOBs with proper CTLD areas, denser (much denser) AAA and SAM coverage and better convoy roads. Also includes updated factions. All credit for this submission belongs to NoGoodNews.
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.
Corrected the class of the WWII asset pack ship USS Samuel Chase from Logistics (ground unit class) to LandingShip, in order to prevent it being spawned as part of AAA sites.
* WRL Faction Updates
Added aircraft to be more all inclusive.
* WRL Battle4Gerogia Overhaul
v1.2 changes to miz file and enemy units. Complete overhaul. Tested in WRL events.
