f4e8e30cb1 Implemented new options in settings:
- Pretense: Extra friendly zone connections - Add connections from each zone to this many closest friendly zones, which don't have an existing supply route defined in the campaign.
- Number of cargo planes per side
- Number of AI SEAD flights per control point / zone
- Number of AI CAS flights per control point / zone
- Number of AI BAI flights per control point / zone
- Number of AI Strike flights per control point / zone
- Number of AI BARCAP flights per control point / zone
- Number of AI aircraft per flight
- Number of player flights per aircraft type at each base
- Number of AI cargo planes per side

Implemented CAS helo mission handling for Pretense. Implemented separate pretense_air_groups container for storing/referencing Flight objects. Tweaked the supply costs of SAM sites and Command centers. Will no longer generate player air starts at roadbases either. Restored the missing DEAD flights to Pretense. Removed spawning of frontline units and moved the JTAC spawning to pretensemissiongenerator.py

e15aca8c54 Updated pretense_compiled.lua to version 1.3.6.
Implemented Pretense settings in pretense_compiled.lua
Added new function moveOffRoadToPointAndAssault() to enable assault groups to drive off-road and thus avoid some of the bridges where they might get stuck.

ced7aa4d72 Implemented generating amphibious units for Pretense unit groups. Amphibious units are selected out of a pre-defined list. Units which the faction has access to are preferred, but certain default unit types are selected as a fall-back to ensure that all the generated units can swim. 2024-02-25 12:40:41 +02:00

713cd98d10 Implemented SAM sites as products of a Command Center at a control point / zone, if the Retribution campaign has the corresponding SAM site there. The SAM site presets are still static, I might make them dynamic in the future. 2024-02-25 12:39:47 +02:00

S3B tasks update (#249)
* Add files via upload

* Add files via upload

* Adjust Strike & Remove OCA/Runway

Strike ->10xMk82 for better effect
OCA/Runway removed because S-3B doesn't support Runway Attack. As long as we don't implement some system to use the carpet bombing task as an alternative (note that this would need markers for representing the ends of runways), Ground Attack is no good to us...

IDF Assets Pack support v1.1 (#233)
* Updated Irondome support to IDF Assets Pack V1.1, which includes the David's Sling.

* Added an Israel 2017 faction with the David's Sling.

* IDF Assets Pack air defence presets and assets are now correctly removed from the faction when the mod is disabled.

* Removed the Iron Dome mod rocket launchers:
- "9M22U - 122mm Grad"
- "9M27F - 229mm Uragan"
- "9M55F - 300mm Smerch"

These were added to the Iron Dome Mod V1.2 in order for the radar to recognize them and be able to intercept them (these are limitations of DCS), so new rockets were added. However, they don't exist in the IDF Assets Pack.

* IronDome to IDF-Assets migration

F-4B/C mod support v2.8.7.204 (#217)
* Rename     pydcs_extensions/f4/__init__.py (from pydcs_extensions/f4b/__init__.py)
Rename     pydcs_extensions/f4/f4b.py (from pydcs_extensions/f4b/f4b.py)

* Rename     pydcs_extensions/f4/f4.py (from pydcs_extensions/f4/f4b.py)

* Support for the updated F-4B/C mod

Updated the F4.py pydcs extension to match the updated F-4B/C mod and
reworked the standard payloads to add "clean" to new F-4B pylons 11 and
12.

This includes a workaround to allow Liberation to use the new VSN F-4B
weapons with combined 2x Aim-9js on pylons 3 and 9 underslung with bombs
on ters on new pylons 11 and 12. In mission editor the combined weapons
are selected in pylons 3 and 9 and their under-slung counterparts are
forced onto 11 and 12 using "required" arguments in the mod's lua. All
other pylon 3 and 9 weapons use "required clean" arguments. Liberation
doesn't have a way to force these linkages onto pylons 11 and 12 and
without them, even without clean, no weapons will load on 3 and 9 or 11
and 12.

The workaround for normal weapons on the F-4B is to set the standard
load-outs to "clean" on pylons 11 and 12. This allows all normal weapons
to work on pylons 3 and 9 so long as pylons 11 and 12 are left as Clean.
It also allows Clean into the Liberation dropdown so it can be selected
later if necessary.

The workaround for the 4 new weapons that combines pylons 3 with 11 and
9 with 12 is that the user has to use the matching pair on each set of
pylons. For example - if F4B_LAU105_AIM9J_2_BRU42A_MK82_3 is selected
for pylon 3, BRU 42A MK823 LAU105 AIM9J2 must be selected for pylon 11.
Failure to do this correctly doesn't crash liberation or DCS, the result
will just be either no weapons at all on either pylon or the underslung
weapons on 11 and 12 floating without a pylon attaching it to the plane.

When updating f4.py in the future, note that running the pydcs database
export doesn't pull any data for Pylons 11 and 12. Those matching
weapons / classes have to be manually defined in those pylons for the
F-4B. This is noted in f4.py.

* F-4 mod support update to 2.8.7.201

* Updated QGeneratorSettings.py and the changelog.

* Updated F-4B and F-4C loadouts.

* Added the Phantom to some additional factions.

* Changelog updated: Updated support for F-4B/C Phantom mod to 2.8.7.204

The pydcs export for the latest patch was identical, which means it's also supported.

* Migrator change for renamed F-4B/C folder
