Please send help. I’m surrounded by people that eat yogurt and custards with forks.
This latest version of LAMBS Danger.fsm development branch adds some new and very useful features. The biggest change is in how group level tactics are now much more flexible and can more easily be cancelled by both the group and would-be Zeus or mission makers.
There are also improvements to how infantry groups perform flanking and suppressing actions. They now work closely with vehicles and their suppressive fire is more reliable. Trust me. Seeing an infantry group absolutely tear apart a position with suppressive fire warms our evil little hearts.
Speaking of vehicles, this has been another area of improvement. Not only will mortars inherently support nearby infantry with High Explosives, smoke and flares, but the Al can deploy the one-man commando mortars introduced in Reaction Forces.
You will also see more shuffling of AI slots. If the gunner is killed, another soldier will take his place. Move too close to an unarmed vehicle-- they’ll exit the vehicle to deal with you up close and personal. Don’t worry. The AI will actually jump out of the vehicle in order to change seats.
As usual there is a slew of performance and functionality fixes too. Long live HEMTT!
We would also like to give special thanks to @rautamiekka, @b-mayr-1984, and @Tinter and all the great people on our discord.
