Apr 1, 2025April 2025 (Phobos) – Delivered targeted feature improvements, stability fixes, and quality-of-life enhancements across air, sea, land, and construction systems. Key features delivered include expanding Jumpjet tilt to 90 degrees with shadow alignment for visual consistency, introducing VisualScatter for dynamic laser/e-beam visuals, and adding a KeepTargetOnMove.NoMorePursuit option to control post-stop pursuit behavior. Construction and terrain rule improvements enable building on CanBeBuiltOn terrains, ensure CanBeBuiltOn works without IsPassable, and fix BuildingSell/offset calculations for reliability. Notable reliability and consistency fixes include amphibious units entering water structures, aircraft carrier interactions near bridges and elevated structures, extended aircraft mission handling, and Strafe return behavior when carriers move. Visual fidelity and correctness fixes cover invisible projectile visuals using actual location, unit tilt on slopes, and broader crash/desync fixes across deployment, spawning, and building phases. These efforts reduce edge-case bugs, improve gameplay predictability, and support safer, more confident play and operations.
