* A Bluefor EWR 55GS in the campaign miz defines an optional EWR site. There is no distinction between how close or far it is to a base, so it's possible that there will be many EWRs within an airbase.
* A Redfor EWR 1L13 in the campaign miz defines a required EWR site.
It would be a good future idea to limit the amount of EWRs within a certain distance from an airbase. That way there's no chance of 5 EWRs all at the same airbase. Even better if there were something preventing any two EWRs from being right next to each other.
No campaigns take advantage of this yet.
Fixes https://github.com/Khopa/dcs_liberation/issues/524
DCS features a massive range of aircraft and land vehicles, and not all of them make their role(s) clear just from the name alone. What this commit does is add an "information" button (and resultant window) to the recruitment section. This should allow new players to understand what each unit is/does.
Current state - every aircraft has a country of origin and an introduction date for that variant. Some also have a small placeholder description, taken from ED's store page for that aircraft. There is also a placeholder picture (taken from a rejected image from my own personal photography) that will, in time, show a banner image of each unit.
Todo - add appropriate screenshots for each aircraft's banner, replace the placeholder text for each aircraft (this will take a while...) and add more data points for each unit type, such as a unit role (i.e. "air-superiority fighter", "multirole fighter", etc) or perhaps a list of weapons carried. I also haven't made a start on the huge number of ground units yet.
- the base LUA functionality has been implemented as a mandatory plugin
- the jtacautolase functionality has been implemented as a plugin
- added a VEAF framework plugin
The plugins have GUI elements in the Settings window.
