New patch for SBP "soon"

[Skybird]

Technical director of eSim, Ssnake, has made comments that they plan to release a patch for the last update of SBP "soon", to adress issues with spotting problems by AI-controlled tanks since 2.546. This quick patch is not to be mistaken with the next major upgrade scheduled for Decembre (which amongst vaguely mentioned "graphical updates" and other things will make the Callenger 2 playable for gunner and TC, and I'm sure that will make plenty of Tommies happy :) Prepare for a unique fire control system that in true British traditions does things totally different than anyone else :D ).

I wonder if they maybe will add a British AFV as well. Just my imagination, don't quote me over it. ;)

New small patch is imminent, just a question of days. Content:

Again a word of caution: this is not the next scheduled regular major upgrade.

Patch 2.552 has been released. This is no full installation that replaces the old one, but needs to get installed over your existing installation.

This patch corrects some AI sighting problems along with making some multiplayer improvements.

* Changed network messages to reduce packet loss due to network overload.
* Corrected an LOS issue that prevents the AI from seeing some targets that are in plain sight.
* Corrected some problems with TC HMG aiming.
* Fixed a bug where PC automated infantry mount/dismount behavior did not function in Network Sessions. PC units will now mount and dismount automatically as they used to, as long as the user is not physically present in the platoon and until the user manually mounts/dismounts troops from the PC (at which point the automatic link is intentionally broken).
