Hello everyone. Fixed an issue where air supplying garrisons via landing replenished only 50% of the required amount; Improved the stability of target identification. Previously, the commander would sometimes fail to identify the target and would not record the damage. The logic for calculating the number of destroyed units in supply columns has been completely reworked. Calculations are now highly accurate. A supply is considered destroyed when 85% of all its objects are ruined. Supply column links have been added to the interactive map. Now it is visually clear from which factory and exactly where the resources are being transported. This becomes available after reconnoitering the supply route. Additionally, the number of units in the supply column is now displayed in the dialog box. A link indicating which garrison an airfield belongs to has been added to the interactive map. The link appears when clicking on an airfield. Now, you can accurately determine ownership to avoid mistakes when trying to supply a garrison. As a reminder, you cannot supply a garrison from the airfield it belongs to. To complete a supply mission for such a garrison, you must fly out from a different airfield. A link has been added to the interactive map showing which factory resources for a bridge are consumed from, and to which factory they will respectively return at the end of the mission. Railroad station links have been reworked. Resource transfer directions are now much easier to distinguish. Fixed a bug where resources from factories were loaded into supply columns and bridges from a random factory instead of the nearest one (yes, don't be surprised, we've been living with this bug all this time))). The bug with the flight completion status has been fixed. Now, upon landing at an airfield, the status is set to "Landed". In this case, the penalty deduction for damage is 1/3. The damage-blocking nets above the tanks have been removed from the bridges.

Increased voice volume for radio communication; Reduced background noise for radio communication; Increased radio communication range to 35 km; Reduced database load. Frequently accessed commander data is now cached and retrieved from memory, preventing database overload with queries; Added icons to the player online window indicating if a user is on the TeamSpeak server, as well as their status (online/offline); Added a countdown timer and penalty reasons to the player online window. If a character is captured or killed, a timer will tick down showing the remaining time until combat actions are permitted; Emergency landing at an airfield should now deduct three times less in-game currency (let's test this together); The "Bridge" objective is now considered destroyed when 65% of all its objects are destroyed; The logger bot now sees everyone on the TeamSpeak server, records multiple events, and tracks user statuses (online, mic on/off, sound on/off). In the future, we will add TeamSpeak server monitoring to the website so you can see who is in which channel; Fixed a bug where negative values were added to a group, reducing the overall income; Fixed other minor bugs; Partial code refactoring; Happy flying!

Radio communication works only on our TeamSpeak 3 server. Address: il2-fl.ru You can use radio communication only on our game server while directly in the game. Radio communication is available only to users who have registered, linked their game account to the system account, and selected a coalition. The entire registration procedure is described in detail in the article: Account Linking.To start using radio communication, you need to link your system account with your TeamSpeak account. To do this, log into your account on our website and go to the section where you select a coalition. If you are registered and have selected a coalition for the campaign, you will see two buttons: Copy linking request; Copy status request; The first button copies the account linking request to your clipboard. The second button copies the request to check your account status in TeamSpeak. To link your account, click the button with the linking request. You will see the word "Copied" appear next to it. After that, go to our TeamSpeak server. At the very bottom, you will see a channel named "Registrator" where a bot with the exact same name will be located. You need to right-click on the bot's name to open the context menu, and then select the option to open a text chat with the bot. Attention! If you can't expand the channel (there is no bird to the left of the channel), right-click on the channel and select Subscribe to Channel At the bottom of the program, a new tab with a private text chat will appear, with a text input field below it. Paste the copied request into this field and press Enter. The Registrator bot will reply with the result of the operation in two languages: Russian and English. The request itself looks something like this: {"event":"link","gamerId":01,"registrationToken":"Token"}Attention! The account linking request is secret! Under no circumstances should you share it with unauthorized people. Do not send it to other chats! After a successful link, you should see the following response in the chat: f you happen to reinstall your operating system (Windows), your TeamSpeak identity will no longer be tied to your previous setup, so the linking procedure must be repeated. You can check your account status using a status request. To do this, copy the status request and send it to the Registrator in the private chat: The Registrator will reply with your linking status: Congratulations! Your TeamSpeak account is now linked to the system account, and you will now hear the radio broadcasts while in the game and in our TeamSpeak simultaneously. Setting up the Transmitter.n order to transmit voice messages over the air, you need to set up a push-to-talk button and configure the transmission. Depending on your client version and its localization, the location of certain menu items, buttons, their names, etc., may differ. I will describe the procedure for the TeamSpeak 3 client. First, find the "Tools" section in the top menu, click on it, and select "Options" from the drop-down menu (or you can simply press the Alt + P key combination). In the options window that opens, find the "Whisper" section. Click the "Whisper Lists" button. In the window that opens, click the "New" button. After clicking, you will be prompted to bind a key that you will use to speak over the air. It looks like this: Assign a hotkey or key combination. After that, you will see a screen similar to this, showing your local whisper list (on the left), your hotkey, and a list of FRONT LINE channels and clients: Expand the FRONT LINE list, then expand the "Channels" list, and find the channel named "AviaDispatcher" at the very bottom: Double-click it or simply drag and drop it into the adjacent left field, then click the "Apply" button: Congratulations! You can now speak over the radio using your assigned hotkey. Everyone who is within the range of your radio station and belongs to your coalition will hear your voice. Attention! Important! If you have set up the transmitter and you do not hear anyone during the check. Right-click on the AviaDispatcher channel and select Subscribe to the channel from the context menu.

Hello everyone! We have completed work on a major server update. In this update, we have added new interaction features, rewards for scouting supply columns, bonuses for victors in aerial combat, made changes to the economy, and fixed a number of bugs and flaws. But first things first. Radio Communication. The largest and most noticeable new feature is the implementation of radio communication via TeamSpeak 3. Now, by being on the game server and in our TS simultaneously, and after configuring the client, you will be able to use radio comms. This will broadcast to all combatants belonging to your coalition within a certain range who are performing combat missions at the same time as you on our server. How does it work? There are two bots living in our TS. One is for linking your TS account to the system account (so the system can accurately identify you, see your coalition, etc.). By the way, the linking procedure is very simple and takes literally 30 seconds. The second bot acts as a repeater. The player assigns a push-to-talk button and configures "whispering" to the repeater bot. That is, you will be talking to the bot. The repeater bot (after your account is linked) knows your coalition, your coordinates, and the coordinates of other virtual pilots and tankers, and can relay your speech to those within the radio station's range. This way, players can sit comfortably in their own channels without losing connection to other channels in our TS. You can plan and execute joint operations without having to set up multiple different buttons to whisper into different channels, to different players, or, even worse, channel hop. It is enough to set up "whispering" to the repeater bot just once. From now on, there is no need to gather in a huge crowd in one channel, which is usually full of noise and chatter. You can split up into flights or specializations (attack aircraft in one channel, transports in another, fighters in a third), go to different channels, and still maintain contact. With this, we simulate real radio communication used in aviation to this day, albeit with a shorter hearing range, and we hope this will facilitate organization and bring the server to life in terms of communication. Zoning. Radio communication is divided into zones. There are three in total: Briefing. Combat mission execution. When the player spawns on the airfield or in a tank. Outside the server. While in the briefing room, via radio communication, you can talk to all players (only those who have linked their account to the system one) who belong to your coalition and are also in the briefing, but you cannot broadcast messages into the combat zone. Those who have spawned on the airfield or tank range cannot hear the briefing zone, and the briefing cannot hear them. Therefore, coordinate your actions in the briefing room beforehand. In the combat zone, players can request help if they suddenly encounter superior enemy forces, etc. Outside the server, radio communication will not work at all. If you leave our server, no one will hear your messages—neither the briefing room nor the combat zone. In addition, we tried to add realistic noise and interference to the radio comms, which will add realism to air and ground battles and provide immersion for players. The radio connection will cut off when a player leaves their vehicle or is shot down. Such a player is immediately moved to the briefing room, so don't try to shout on the air hoping to give a tip to someone who is still fighting. The range is 31 km—a sphere, not a cylinder. Future Prospects. At the moment, radio communication has been implemented experimentally. If players actively use the comms and like this approach, we will develop it further. What could this development look like? Well, firstly, although it is not very historically accurate, for the sake of game mechanics, we could add "communication nodes" that will increase the radio range. These could be physical objects that aircraft can destroy to deprive the opposing side of the extended radio range. Also, VNOS (Air Observation, Warning, and Communication) posts are planned. Players will be able to transport and set up air observation posts using transport aircraft. In turn, these posts—with some errors, but more accurately than regular game triggers (many of you have seen text hints on other servers like "enemy aircraft spotted in such-and-such grid," even though there might be more than one aircraft, and it's unclear what altitude or course they are on)—will be able to notify everyone within radio range. Our posts will be able to broadcast the approximate altitude, quantity, types (specialization), and approximate direction of one or more aircraft. This will facilitate interceptions and, as a result, spectacular dogfights. Furthermore, for fans of immersion, we could add AI dispatchers to airfields, with whom you can communicate. Requesting a "bearing" (direction to the airfield), getting weather conditions, receiving takeoff clearance or denial... The radio setup is described in the article: Scouting Rewards. Since transport columns, railway, or maritime supply require reconnaissance, we have added a reward for those who perform such tasks. The conditions for receiving the reward are simple: you must be the closest to the center of the trigger when it activates, and after the "fog of war" circle is replaced by an icon, return to any allied airfield. If the scout does not return, the reward will not be credited to their account (but will be noted in the session log with the values). If the scout is in a group, the reward goes to the group's shared income. Each successful reconnaissance is rewarded as follows: For scouting a garrison supply: 100 in-game currency and 35 points. For scouting an airfield supply: 200 in-game currency and 70 points. You can read about supplies and the mechanics of scouting them in the articles: "Airfield Supply: Life for Aviation" and "Garrison Supply: The Key to Success". "Headhunting". A bonus for shooting down aircraft has been added to the standard reward. The size of the reward directly depends on who you shoot down (destroy on the ground in PVP), as it is calculated in relation to the enemy's balance and points. If it is an ace or just a general with a lot of in-game currency and points on their balance, the reward will be higher, but if it is a rookie who is barely making ends meet and is just learning to play in a virtual war environment, the reward will be insignificant (sometimes even zero). Hunting aces is more profitable than shooting blind rookies. The main condition for receiving the bonus is the survival of your game character at the time the bonus is calculated. If the victor is in a group, the bonus is credited to the group's shared account. The bonus amount in points is 2% of the number of points shot down.; The bonus amount in the game currency is 5% of the downed balance.; Reward for Paratroopers. As of this update, the reward for shooting a paratrooper is abolished. Now, the reward for the crew will only be awarded up to the moment they bail out of the vehicle. However, please note that clause 6.3 of the server rules states: "It is forbidden to intentionally leave the game while flying or operating a tank without a technical or gameplay necessity (damage that does not allow continuing the fight). Bailing out of an undamaged vehicle by the crew is considered disrespect to the enemy and is strictly punished." Such actions disrupt the mission balance, interfere with other players, and can lead to account wipes. In the future, we will implement automatic monitoring of "bailing out of undamaged vehicles," and the system itself will punish such players with massive fines. Full list of changes and additions: Added radio communication; Added rewards for reconnaissance/scouting; Added bonuses for shooting down enemy aircraft; On the website, in the "Gameset" section, in the combat loadouts dropdown list, the sequence number of each combat loadout is now displayed in its card, fully corresponding to the game. This should allow for better navigation and faster associative finding of the required loadout on the website; On the website, in the "Account" (profile) section where the campaign coalition is selected, buttons have been added to copy commands for linking a TeamSpeak account; A new event, "Reconnaissance" (Scouting), has been added to the statistics section on the website; Fixed a bug where an incorrect status was set upon connection loss, resulting in deductions (the "disconnect" status was not always assigned when needed); Rewards for shooting at characters (bots) are credited only up to the moment they bail out of the vehicle. If bots have abandoned the vehicle, they can still be killed, but no rewards are awarded for such actions!; Fixed a bug where a +streak was awarded even when the character died; Fixed a bug where a reward was issued for shooting down an allied aircraft; Fixed a bug with delayed victories (when the victor might have already left the server, and the kill notification only arrives when the virtual pilot fails to reach their airfield), where if the player was in a group, the reward was not credited to the group. It should now be credited properly; Minor program code improvements; Increased the in-game currency reward for destroying ground targets by 20%; Increased the in-game currency reward for shooting down enemy aircraft by 25%; The amount of experience required to obtain the 12th and 13th ranks has been significantly increased; The non-combat update of airfield statuses has been increased to 10 minutes (previously, the current status of airfields was shown to the enemy with a five-minute delay); The time to exit to the briefing room has been increased to 15 seconds.
