This PR: - Introduces a new member of UnitType, hit_points, which is an abstract representation of the durability of a unit, and loads it in from the YAML files in the various subclasses (Ship, Ground etc). - Adds scripts for populating/updating the unit YAML files with hit point data from DCS. This script also gets the data for static objects, but I'll leave the plugging in of static object data into Liberation for another PR. - Updates the unit YAML files by running the above scripts. I did toy with the idea of adding this data to the unit definitions in pydcs via an export from DCS, but it would be a more involved change, since the current pydcs export script runs in the Hooks Lua environment in DCS and AFAICT the hit points (via Unit.getLife()) is run in the mission scripting environment.

description: The Marder (German for "marten") is a German infantry fighting vehicle
|
|
operated by the German Army as the main weapon of the Panzergrenadiere (mechanized
|
|
infantry) from the 1970s through to the present day. Developed as part of the rebuilding
|
|
of Germany's armoured fighting vehicle industry, the Marder has proven to be a successful
|
|
and solid infantry fighting vehicle design. While it used to include a few unique
|
|
features, such as a fully remote machine gun on the rear deck and gun ports on the
|
|
sides for infantry to fire through, these features have been deleted or streamlined
|
|
in later upgrade packages to bring it more in line with modern IFV design. Around
|
|
2,100 were taken into service by the German Army in the early 1970s, but the vehicle
|
|
in its German variant was not sold to any foreign militaries. As the German Army
|
|
began to retire older vehicles, the Chilean government agreed to acquire 200 Marders;
|
|
the government of Greece has considered the purchase of 450 retired vehicles in
|
|
the past. Argentina uses a simplified and locally produced variant, the VCTP, and
|
|
has a number of vehicles based on that platform constructed by Henschel and built
|
|
by TAMSE.
