Hellfish6 Member Registered: 08/12/05 Posts: 200	So if I bought SB today, would it behoove me to wait till 2.6 is released before downloading if it is a whole new installer?

Yes, if I understand your intent correctly this is the work-minimal approach. You would still have to order the old version at the moment for $85 and then the update for $25.- in a second step as soon as our web shop gets updated, but I wouldn't bother with the download of versions 2.538 and 2.552 any longer. _________________________ Visit the home of Steel Beasts! ...the ultimate armor sim...

Ssnake Virtual Shiva Beast Senior Member Registered: 12/16/99 Posts: 3647 Loc: Germoney	Still some errors in it; you can also be the gunner of the RBS-70 air defense missile (F7, then F2 to access the sight, as usual). _________________________ Visit the home of Steel Beasts! ...the ultimate armor sim...

Ssnake Virtual Shiva Beast Senior Member Registered: 12/16/99 Posts: 3647 Loc: Germoney	One important user interface change - for the other readers of this thread - is that you no longer set the missile type through the ammunition dialog box, but you first have to select the "optional weapon" of a missile team. _________________________ Visit the home of Steel Beasts! ...the ultimate armor sim...

Spearfish Junior Member Registered: 12/17/11 Posts: 56	Can I use Canadian UAV as artillery spotter? You know, designate targets from above and call artillery barrage or maybe even air strike. Does Swedish UGV has similar capabilities? Can it detect mines or IEDs and liquidate them in some way? In XXI century unmanned stuff quickly becomes crucial asset!

Spearfish Junior Member Registered: 12/17/11 Posts: 56	WOW! That's great - looks exactly as during Libyan campaign w/o weapons carried by this UAV (well, not UCAV). I noticed tank smoke grenades in SBPro PE (even old ones on Soviet tanks) also block infra-red vision for a long time. Is this correct?

Ssnake Virtual Shiva Beast Senior Member Registered: 12/16/99 Posts: 3647 Loc: Germoney	There are both multispectral variants and smoke that just blocks the visible spectrum. It depends on what you select as a mission designer. _________________________ Visit the home of Steel Beasts! ...the ultimate armor sim...

Spearfish Junior Member Registered: 12/17/11 Posts: 56	I see. Does multispectral smoke also block laser beams (rangefinder etc.)? Well, I think mission editor is a main playground of SBPro PE so I will have to master it. Now I don't even know how to set up artillery support.

Spearfish Junior Member Registered: 12/17/11 Posts: 56	Oh, plenty of info, plenty of time needed to study it. *EDIT* OK, I "pierced" trough Mission Editor video tutorials. IMO editor is quite handy but powerful with Control Logic features and possible degree of randomization. Yet author of this tutorials stated AI units during move are not very smart, especially on wood roads they often lose direction of movement.
