Hi all,
There were a few bugs that went under the radar while I was working on the last update, so I've uploaded a hotfix since they were actively harming peoples' playing experience. I apologize for any inconvenience.
Bugfixes/Changes:
- Infantry units of all types can now suppress entrenched enemies without having to be in the same trench. Previously such units would only attack with a clear line of sight, but I've broken the check up into separate line of sight and line of fire checks. Selecting "Attack Area" will allow units to fire on an area that includes entrenched enemies and suppress them, but will not actually cause casualties.
- Fixed bug in which idle artillery units would retreat to the bottom of the map on their own.
- Fixed bug where units were ignoring 'cancel orders' commands.
Thanks for playing!

It wasn't really broken, it was just unbalanced. Namely, things like shooting down enemy pilots or evading them were not providing as much experience as they should have been given how rare they are compared to recon actions. So I've rebalanced things a bit. Shooting down opposing pilots espec…
