Hi all, Here is the change log from 2.2.4 to 2.2.24. The last stable release was 2.2.16. 2.2.17 through to 2.2.24 have been done in the dev test beta's branch. It's all live now in the main branch. We've been concentrating mostly on fixing the bugs in the bug tracker, but have also made substantial progress on the missile rework which is currently underway, and added a bunch of new features such as the slope of sloped armour now being used in the projectile damage / ricochet calculations. You'll find a lot of changes to the way missiles work in this build, but the more radical changes such as small, medium and large gauges of missile, hatches, new guidance modules and balancing is still being worked on. v2.2.5 [Fix] : Custom flags download when game starts, like they used to [BUGS-37] v2.2.5 [Fix] : Fix for RTG bug allowing infinite material in campaigns [BUGS-31] v2.2.5 [Fix] : Improved buoyancy for vehicles with over 2K blocks [BUGS-26] v2.2.5 [Fix] : Multiplayer speed of time syncronisation issue fixed [BUGS-35] v2.2.5 [Fix] : Ocean colors slightly updated for some weathers v2.2.5 [Fix] : Various fixes to drop down menus [BUGS-29] [BUGS-32] v2.2.5 [Fix] : White highlighting now only for blocks with a tooltip to display [BUGS-30] v2.2.6 [Fix] : Various plotting problems fixed [BUGS-24] v2.2.6 [Fix] : Vehicles saved with 'Nan' position can now be loaded at [BUGS-14] v2.2.7 [Fix] : Fixed 'mostly-black screen' when loading some old incompatible mods v2.2.7 [Fix] : Fixed a bug causing world to go orange / purple [BUGS-42] [BUGS-20] v2.2.7 [Fix] : Fixed battle deployment limits [BUGS-40] v2.2.7 [Fix] : Multiplayer client vehicle spawning fixed [BUGS-43] v2.2.7 [Fix] : Multiplayer transfer blueprints no longer reporting as corrupt [BUGS-43 v2.2.7 [Fix] : Weapon slot 10 now functions again [BUGS-25] v2.2.8 [Fix] : Block IDs once again converted to GUID before being sent across network to fix multiplayer bug [BUGS-59] v2.2.8 [Fix] : Bug with barrels loading in incorrect position on pistons fixed [BUGS-53] v2.2.8 [Fix] : Default designer vehicle should now be saved when changed [FTD-130] v2.2.8 [Fix] : Exploding text no longer splits over multiple lines as it grows [BUGS-54] v2.2.8 [Fix] : Speed factor now affects spin block visual rotation and helicopter blade force [BUGS-56] v2.2.8 [Fix] : Stabilisation level of wireless camera now saved [BUGS-58] v2.2.9 [Add] : Highlighting of blocks is now optional, controls are in the UI panel of the menu [BUGS-30] v2.2.9 [Fix] : Condition and action value ACB sliders linked together [BUGS-44] v2.2.9 [Fix] : Fixed physics crash when placing a SubObject containing a wheel v2.2.9 [Fix] : Centre of mass changes no longer affect vehicle speed estimates [BUGS-78],Tutorial completion metre is updated correctly now [BUGS-74] v2.2.9 [Fix] : Coordinate frame now updated in multiplayer- fewer graphical glitches and shaking.
