EDTBTR Hotfix 1.06.81 available for download

Post by simovitch »

version 1.06.81 hotfix released July 26, 2024

Fixed a major bug in EDBTR and BoB where following bombers in raid would split away from the lead group after bombing and head straight for the original form up airfield. Now raids and followers will traverse the entire flight path together.

Fixed a bug where the Axis AI in BoB 1941 would launch a flight of Hurricanes as a fighter-bomber mission.

Fixed some buggyness with the "toggle stragglers" and "toggle following" switches on the UI panel.

Made a tweak which may help solve the issues with the attacking AI taking an extended leave from it's offensive duties.

Reduced the possibility of mandatory U-Boat Pen targeting from 75% chance to 67% chance.

U-Boat factories can now be targeted regardless of Mandatory U-Boat Pen restrictions.

Reset Allied Hawker Tempest to fighter role. This fix will only shows up in new games.


Here is the link to the hotfix zip file at Dropbox:

Thanks!
The Nazis entered this war under the rather childish delusion that they were going to bomb everyone else, and nobody was going to bomb them. They sowed the wind, and now they are going to reap the whirlwind.

The official Matrix patch is on the way soon, so it would be best to wait for that because it fixed some errors found on the hotfix.

Hey there, any sort of rough ETA on the patch? Was thinking of starting a new game but figure I might as well wait and be up to date.
