This updates all ten of my campaigns with the improvements I made for
the Retribution versions. There are Retribution-specific units and
trigger zones in the miz templates, but I've tested them and they don't
appear to cause any issues (since Liberation will just ignore the
unknown units and trigger zones). This will make things easier for me in
the future, because then I don't have to maintain two separate sets of
the same campaign files.
The changes include a total redo of supply routes for better convoy
on-road pathing, as well as a balance pass for squadron distribution and
strength.
I have also made a slight edit to one of my faction files to fix a typo.
F/A-18E and F/A-18F are added to their factions, Growler is currently in
its respective factions but was released in 2009, this will be changed
if needed.
This is a new faction that expands on the current PMC Russian faction by
adding in a substantial number of new units for additional variety and
challenge. It'll be the default faction for my helicopter campaign (I'll
open a PR for that tomorrow. It's all done apart from the campaign
description).
Rather than having a separate faction file that is identical to the Russia 1975 faction file but includes the Hind, might as well just add the Hind to the standard Russia 1975 faction.
Includes an Argentina 1982 faction for testing purposes, although it's
sparse because of a lack of assets in DCS.
Note that the carrier is mispelled as the Vienticinco in the game.
Includes prerequisite pydcs update.
Fixes https://github.com/dcs-liberation/dcs_liberation/issues/3123.
1. Removes Flak18 as these currently require Kdo.G.40. (part of the WW2
Asset Pack) to fire at player. ED-supplied single missions are having
Flak18s w/out WW2 Asset Pack firing at a point in the air.
2. Adds Opel Blitz to frontline for more variety, balance, and some
little bit of historical accuracy. My understanding is late war was more
truck strafing than HVARing Panzers.
3. Adds guard tower to AAA units to have a functioning AAA since Flak18s
don't work.
A lot of campaigns want to define custom factions. This allows them to
do so without us having to fill the built-in factions list with a bunch
of campaign-specific factions. It also makes custom campaigns more
portable as they don't need to also distribute the custom faction files.
I haven't removed the old US navy stuff from this faction, since all the
new UK ships are frigates, and removing the US stuff would deprive the
faction of cruisers and destroyers, which might break generation (I'm
not familiar enough with the new system to say for sure).
