Change Details

# 1. Bug Fixes 1. **Global storage lag** Transferring or sharing supplies between entities—even within the same base—can be very slow. 2. **Inconsistent refresh intervals** Some players see no supply-share updates for 5–10 minutes, while others use it normally. This can block vehicle spawns (e.g. you queue a LAV but another player, without the bug, spawns an attack heli and consumes all available resources). --- # 2. Proposed Tweaks (will evolve) | System Element | Current Behavior or Cost | Proposed Change | |---------------------------------|---------------------------------------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | **AT rockets** | Default supply cost | • 100 supplies per RPG rocket• 150 supplies per US AT rocket launchers | | **Vehicle spawn costs** | Baseline cost & vehicle waste | Increase each vehicle’s cost by **20–50%** to encourage smarter resource use and reduce waste | | **AI reinforcement spawns in supply points** | Standard delay, standard count | • Increase time delay between spawns • Approximately **double** the number of AIs per spawn | | **Vehicle count limits per base** | Unlimited | Impose per-base caps (e.g. 10 cars, 5 trucks, 2 LAV), enforced until vehicles are destroyed or heavily damaged (and isolated) | --- # 3. New Feature Suggestions - **“Port” building for coastal bases** Add a dock slot that boosts passive supply income from ~5 every 10 s up to **100 every 10 s**. If the base is attacked, disable the port for 20 minutes. - **CH-47 Chinook (US heavy transport helicopter)** Introduce a Cold War–era Chinook (first built 1962) for large-scale supply runs. It’s slower and larger than the UH-1, balancing its higher capacity. - **US equivalent to the UAZ-452** A light utility vehicle capable of hauling **800 supplies** at high speed. - **Enhanced convoy logistics** – Overhaul AI pathfinding for supply convoys to follow roads and avoid obstacles. – Add a “convoy” command allowing multiple vehicles to move together. – Implement a “load all supplies” command for vehicles at supply depots. - XP gain depends on distance and amount, prevent low xp run exploits

New Feature Suggestions * **“Ports” for coastal bases** Requires all surrounding bases to be captured; once all adjacent bases are secured, the coastal base’s port begins producing passive supplies over time (\~100 every 10 s). If the port is attacked, it is disabled for 20 minutes. * **CH-47 Chinook (US heavy transport helicopter)** Introduce a Cold War–era Chinook (first built 1962) for large-scale supply runs. It’s slower and larger than the UH-1, balancing its higher capacity. * **US equivalent to the UAZ-452** A light utility vehicle capable of hauling **800 supplies** at high speed. * **Enhanced convoy logistics** – Overhaul AI pathfinding for supply convoys to follow roads and avoid obstacles. – Add a “convoy” command allowing multiple vehicles to move together. – Implement a “load all supplies” command for vehicles at supply depots. --- # 4. Supply Runs Supply runs earn XP according to the formula : ``` XP = (supplies_delivered / 10) × distance_km × 2 ``` For example, delivering 100 supplies over 0.5 km yields (100 / 10) × 0.5 × 2 = 10 XP. To prevent farming exploits currently, no XP is awarded for any run shorter than 0.2 km. **For the new formula, XP scales linearly with the straight-line, point‑to‑point distance between the pickup and drop‑off coordinates to prevent somebody just doing circles.** All parameters in the formula—the divisor (10) and multiplier (2)—are tunable, allowing balance adjustments to overall XP rates and progression pacing.
