Refactor, bugs and enhancements

v1.2.2.1

• FIXES

  • Added bulletinfo.explosive check to GetInfo, so explosive shells now show blast radius in the part Info (RMB) section in the editor.
  • Correct text errors in bullet names on some files. Not all platforms support UTF8 characters.
  • (Internal) Fix file copy error in build process.
  • Increase default detonation range boundaries and step increments. Git Issue #527
  • Removed : Final from entried in MM config 000000_HitpointModule.cfg. Causing race conditions with some BDA part mods

• ENHANCEMENTS:

  • Improved reload sound on M1Abrams Turret.
  • Removed BDA_SLW.cfg from MM configs. Obsolete and no longer used.
  • Converted all .wav sounds to .ogg (reduce DL size and in game memory footprint)
  • Updated several Module info pages to reflect recent changes to ballistic mechanics
  • Added a part module Info Page refresh mechanism to support settings changes that affect part Module info blocks in the editor.
  • Added Jettison action to parts TweakUI in flight. Git Issue #539
  • (Internal) Some code refactoring (basic cleanup, Module reorganization)
  • Deprecate the Cannon weaponType. Going forward, Ballistic should be used instead. Cannon remains (backwards compatibility), but will be eventually removed.
  • (Internal) Updated build process to improve multi developer build and deployments. Simplified KSP version change dev environment build process.

More Enhancements

v1.2.1.4

• FIXES

  • Corrected error in Target Previous action group. Was pointing to Target Next method instead.

• ENHANCEMENTS:

  • Added mouse slewing (pointing) in the TargetCam Window. Now you can intuitively click and drag to position the target in the window.
  • Added mouse scrollwheel zooming in TargetCam window. Now you can zoom in and zoom out using the mousewheel.
  • Added reactive armor part module. Modders can now take advantage of a new armor type in BDAc.
  • Added Wet Weapons Check module (ModuleWWC). This module will pevent submerged weapons from firing (like when a ship sinks).
    The depth is user selectable.

More Quality of life enhancements

v1.2.1.3

• FIXES

  • Removed 99_bdac_engagementenvelopes.cfg. This legacy file was interfering with the new tuning of some of the missiles.

• ENHANCEMENTS:

  • Added Target Next / Previous hot keys and Actions. Now you can switch targets without having to click on the Radar!
  • Numerous missile tuning tweaks to improve flight profile appearances and improve config consistency.
  • Add slider to adjust Eject Velocity of Chaff and flares in Editor.
  • Revised Jet engine sound (much better now)
  • Added configurable hot keys for VesselSwitcher Next and Previous Vessel (Defaults remain PgUp and PgDn)
  • Revised Input Settings window to use a scroller. This reduces the size of the window by about half.

More UI love, bugs and missile retuning

v1.2.1.2

• FIXES

  • Correct Radar display missing graphics when using low quality graphics Git Issue #516.
  • Correct tracer display missing graphics when using low quality graphics. Git Issue #520.
  • Correct automatic resizing of WingCommander Window
  • Reintroduce BDAcUniversalAmmoBox Module Manager config file. Somehow was dropped during a merge somewhere back.
  • Separate RWR operation from RWR display. RWR should be enabled at all times when a Radar is installed on craft.
    • Opening and closing the RWR window now leaves RWR operation active. Git Issues 410, #411, #461
  • removed part configs for the AGM86-ruise an the RBS-15 They have been broken, and are superceded by improved weapons.

• ENHANCEMENTS:

  • Increase the limits of the Radar and RWR window scaling to allow for larger windows.
    • Add min and max settings to the settings.cfg to allow user defined limits. Git Issue #521
  • Add mouse driven RWR and Radar windows resizing. Now you can intuitivly resize by mouse. Click an drag the lower right corner.
  • Redesigned Targeting Cam window to incorporate all features added to the Radar window - resizing, boundary checks, mouse resize, relocate buttons
  • Retune BDAc missiles to improve characteristics, performance, and balance. Tuning performed by Kergan

v1.0.0 - Under the radar, over the horizon

v1.0.0

• NEW FEATURES:

  • Under the radar: Radar & Stealth, re-design of how the radar system works
    -> see developer wiki for mechanics / part config
    -> see included changelog for details

    -> see included changelog for details

  • New dedicated sonar ping and torpedo ping sounds, courtesy of PapaJoe!

• FIXES / ENHANCEMENTS:

  • Localization updates, including chinese localization (thanks @Acea)
  • Fixed indestructible Kerbals - weapons/explosions have effect on Kerbals again! (thanks @Designer225)
  • Fixed AIPilot problem with drag estimations (thanks @RichardDastardly)
  • Fix missile infinite fuel
  • Fix rwr window invisible in fresh installs
  • Display ranges of RWR and radar display now linked, selectable display range of radar display up to configured PRE physics max range!
  • Window position saving also for vesselswitcher
  • Prevent active radar missiles locking onto anything they see, now obey engagement settings

  • If debug labels are enabled, upon entering the editor all bda parts & their properties (if relevant for balancing) are dumped into .csv files for convenient analysis in excel
  • Complete review of all event handlers, should reduce some actual or potential nullrefs upon explosive vessel disassembly
  • General performance improvements due to code refactoring

NOTE: As always, BDA need PhysicsRangeExtender and ModuleManager to work properly!
Latest versions (as of this release date) are bundled in the download release zip.
