Hello all - update v1.1.2 should now be available! The following changes are a part of today’s update.
v1.1.2 Update — Improvements and Fixes
- Improved mission launch handling so failed attempts before mission resolution do not consume supplies or clear your flight setup.
- Added recovery for completed missions whose animation or report fails to display, allowing the result to be reviewed without repeating combat, resource charges or rewards.
- Fixed stale ace ambush controls that could leave an encounter unresponsive or act on the wrong mission result.
- Improved save and reload handling for unfinished mission reports, ambush decisions and pending pilot death notices.
- Added safeguards preventing new missions, week advancement and relocation from bypassing an unfinished mission report or ambush decision.
- Fixed scramble continuation so completing an airfield defence resumes the interrupted week without rolling another raid during the same transition.
- Improved scramble result windows with scrollable report text, accessible Continue controls and keyboard support.
- Prevented new enemy airfield raids during Storm conditions and clarified why scramble flights are grounded.
- Fixed airfields remaining closed after paid runway repairs restore their condition to 100. Partial repairs retain any remaining closure.
- Improved consistency between airfield status information, mission readiness and departure checks.
- Prevented new standard HQ flight directives during storms and extended pending directive deadlines to account for grounded weeks.
- Increased the bonus for a newly confirmed enemy ace kill to 80 IP, including eligible victories in ordinary missions, ambushes, intercepts and lethal duels. Previously recorded ace kills are not awarded retrospectively.
- Improved ace opportunity handling so dead, expired and otherwise invalid targets are removed, while accepted valid intercept opportunities remain available until used or expired.
- Fixed missing Ace Intercept opportunities and added clearer access to available intercepts alongside HQ directives.
- Fixed stale ace names and victory totals on Intercept and Duel mission cards, with additional target validation before launch.
- Improved Intelligence screens to distinguish current tracking, active opportunities and older reports while preserving purchased dossiers and historical information.
- Corrected main-encounter enemy fighter counts so combat resolution, individual victory credits, mission reports and aircraft visuals use the same roster of up to five fighters. Balloons and subsequent ace ambushes remain separate targets.
- Rebalanced aircraft procurement so only each nation’s original starter aircraft remains free. Eight subsequent early aircraft now use Standard-tier pricing.
- Reworked aircraft repair costs around replacement Parts value, damage restored and maintenance modifiers, with safeguards against gaining extra Parts through repeated repair and salvage.
- Reduced mission operating Parts costs by 50%, with rounding applied after flight-size adjustments. Aircraft repair costs remain separate.
- Improved ammunition settlement so quiet sorties consume no ammunition, while qualifying combat consumes the mission ammunition cost once.
- Fixed duplicate resource deductions when applying ace duel results.
- Added clearer weekly Command Resupply reporting, showing actual deliveries and supplies excluded by storage limits.
- Added supply tooltips to the Fuel, Ammo and Parts name labels, including the latest Command delivery and an estimate for the following week.
- Improved pilot Orders help with explicit information buttons, clearer visibility and correct refreshing after importing saved flights.
- Added itemised relocation preparation costs for the minimum destination Hangar and Aerodrome capacity needed by your squadron. Existing destination facilities reduce the preparation cost, and origin facilities remain preserved.
- Updated the Field Manual with guidance covering the revised costs, repairs, supply reporting, relocation and encounter handling.
Happy hunting!
