I'm adding a few minor features to enhance the navigation related components of VBS2. Simply because topographical map representations combined with the compass could provide a reasonable navigation training system. Some of these enhancements will be geared more towards certain militaries and be adapted from input from such organisations. Release initially will be to all YYMEA keyed customers (via VBS2 Support Forums), other customers will have to contact me to arrange alternative EBOs. Keep in mind I don't have all VBS2 versions to test on and there may be a variation between my copy and yours that may cause a few initial issues for this addon. Some of these features will require patches to terrains already enhanced by topographical maps, details of which are to be made available on the release of the Topographical map tutorial.
Additionally I'm working on a scripted enhancement to the standard VBS2 AI. Right now I have them reacting to rounds flying in close proximity at any range, and coordinating their efforts with other OPFOR to attempt to identify the shooter. This will primarily be aimed at the conventional operations side of the house, however there will be scalability built in to adapt to asymmetric warfare should the need arise. Again release will be to YYMEA keys initially, other customers will have to make contact for alternative arrangements.
On top of this, work is continuing on a number of other enhancements specifically for VBS2, all will relate to basic soldiering skills, and all will be optional.
Apologies for the extensive delays on some releases, I am working hard to deliver quality content for this blog, however my rehabilitation takes priority. I will not release anything before it is completed otherwise that just makes me look stupid and gives you half-arsed content.
Jamie.
