In this digest we would like to tell you about our continuing work on improvements and fixes in the game. You can find information about all updates that have been released in War Thunder on the website special section.

Improved overcoming of obstacles

Trenches, embankments and other complex objects are sometimes no less dangerous for a tanker than enemy fire. From now on passing over them will be much safer. We found and fixed the bug where a vehicle might suddenly lose grip and hang on a fairly simple obstacle from which you didnt expect such a trick. To go into detail - it was due to an incorrect determination of the angle of inclination of the surface under the vehicle. We have corrected this calculation so there will be a lot less jams now. Concentrate your attention on the enemy, not on stumps.

Filtering suspended armament

Suspended armament on some aircraft can be so flexible that the number of available variants of equipment has long exceeded a dozen and with the advent of more and more modern and advanced vehicles in War Thunder, it only continues to grow. Because of this, even in the significantly refined menu of the suspended weaponry it is sometimes possible to get lost. We noticed your comments about this problem and as a solution, we are adding additional filters that allow you to select for example only available weapons for your current level or display only your favorite and customary ones. Simplicity is the key to the fastest start of the next battle and reduce mistakes when equipping your battle vehicle.

Set an alarm for you

No, it isnt about the alarm clock that disturbs a peaceful nights sleep and spoils your mood in the morning. It is a very useful alarm clock which doesnt bother you at all but it will warn you in advance if an item in your inventory is about to expire. Now the alarm icon will appear on items with only hours left to activate or expire. Boosters and personal discounts will be marked with a coloured box hours before they expire.

Extinguished additional fire in Assault

Its a minor fix and a great excuse to remind you of an interesting battle mode where you and a few comrades are fighting waves of AI controlled opponents attacking your base. Assault is available in the game mode selection menu under the Battle button. And we have fixed a bug where a defeated comrade might leave a firing hanging in the air when leaving a battle earlier. This was a good symbol of the losers emotions but it didnt look very realistic.

Update 2.13.0.82

A Filters option has been added to the secondary weapons menu. Now you may choose to display only favorite or available setups, as well as display the setups by modification tier.
An Alarm clock icon has been added to warn players about expiring items in their inventory.
Boosters and personal discounts in the bottom right part of the hangar menu, as well as those in the Store Inventory menu are now framed in orange or red depending on their expiration dates - in 4 or 1 hours respectively.

Ground vehicles

A bug has been fixed with passing certain obstacles, such as trenches, where the slope angle under the vehicle could be calculated incorrectly, which caused traction drop and the vehicle sticking.
A bug has been fixed where an effect of fire could remain on the battlefield after the vehicles hull disappears.
M1128 max engine speed has been specified from 2,600 to 2,400 rpm; max speed has been corrected from 121 to 96.5 km/h.
BMP-3 a bug has been fixed with the laser rangefinder over the guns barrel with the Sodema modification installed.
Challenger 2 a bug with the description of the front right side skirt in the x-ray mode has been fixed.
Radkampfwagen 90 a bug has been fixed where in some cases the protection of the armour fragment in the lower part of the turret was overestimated.
M18 a bug has been fixed where in some cases the protection of the armour fragment below the gun mantlet was overestimated.
The accuracy of laser and correlation rangefinders has been increased.

Aviation

Me 163B, Me 163B-0, Ki-200 a bug has been fixed that prevented take-off from unpaved airfields (report, video).
A bug has been fixed where wing spoilers may display raised in the hangar or on the reserve site.
J-7E max launch overload in 4G has been removed from the PL-5B missiles.
Ki-45 Hei, Ki-45 Ko, Ki-45 Otsu, Ki-45 Tei targeting angles of the dorsal turrets have been fixed.
D4Y (all modifications) targeting angles of the dorsal turret have been fixed.
F1M2 targeting angles of the dorsal turret have been fixed.
12,7mm Breda-SAFAT fuze sensitivity of the HE round has been fixed from 3 to 0.1 mm (report).
Saab AJ37 the weapon setups including the RB75 missiles have been moved to the section For armoured targets (report).
AIM-7F, -24 missiles autopilot logic at close distances to the target has been improved.

Naval

USS Trenton, USS Raleigh number of the rangefinders of the stern and central gun director rooms in the x-ray mode has been corrected.
USS North Dakota number of the gun directors in the pop-up message of the central gun director room has been corrected in the xray mode.
A bug has been fixed where the azimuth scale may be hidden when changing from the bluewater ship to the coastal vessel with a radar (report).

Other changes

Display of markers in the tutorial missions has been corrected.

The current provided changelog reflects the major changes within the game as part of this Update. Some updates, additions and fixes may not be listed in the provided notes. War Thunder is constantly improving and specific fixes may be implemented without the client being updated.

War Thunder is a free-to-play, cross-platform MMO combat game for Windows, Linux, Mac and PlayStation®4 dedicated to military vehicles used in and around World War II and the Korean War. In War Thunder, you can take part in major battles on land, in the air, and at sea, fighting with real players from all over the world in a continuously developing environment.

War Thunder already offers a highly detailed experience in military aviation and ground forces combat, giving players access to a Guinness World Record breaking number of aircraft, as well as an abundance of tanks and other combat vehicles - and the number is constantly rising.

You can feel the unmatched intensity of aerial dogfights in a fighter, the decisive power of commanding a heavy strategic bomber or the heat of battle in a ground attacker, delivering precision strikes against your enemies. Alternatively, you can join the spearhead of armoured vehicles, fighting for dominance over the battlefield on the ground: Man a heavy tank with impressive armour and firepower, use the maneuverability of a medium or light tank to your advantage, or support your team by screening the skies with your anti aircraft vehicle - the choice is yours!

In the future, the game will also allow players to ‘set sail’ by commanding a variety of warships in the fight over the control of the world’s oceans, giving the game a truly epic scale.

Master your vehicles through both upgrades and personal experience in an environment that is constantly expanding and rewarding the personal skill of the player. Organise your efforts in one of the countless player squadrons and become an ace pilot or tanker - or both! Our thriving and welcoming community of millions of players is also actively participating in the game’s ongoing development, offering custom content through War Thunder Live, such as skins, missions and even vehicles.

War Thunder has something for everyone. Play cooperative games with your friends on Windows PC, Linux, Mac or PlayStation 4 against AI, or squad up for a PvP battle in a difficulty setting matching your play style, ranging from Arcade to Simulator using Mouse and Keyboard, Gamepad or Joystick.

Features include:

Right into the heat of battle - Intense PvP experiences in full-scale combat missions on various difficulty settings for all play styles and degrees of experience.
A single bullet can make a difference - A realistic damage system for aircraft and ground vehicles involving individual component durability instead of an overall health bar.
