  52. New vehicle damage systems
  53.  
  54. We've made significant changes to how vehicles function in the game.
  55.  
  56. First, static vehicles can now take damage until they are completely destroyed. Some of these vehicles can be damaged by grenades or collisions with other vehicles, while others will require larger explosions, such as demolition charges, to be affected.
  57.  
  58. Additionally, the damage systems for tanks and wheeled vehicles have been completely rewritten. Beyond the introduction of a new damage formula, certain parts, like the engine and transmission, can now be repaired after being destroyed. To perform this, tank crew members are now equipped with a new "Toolbox" item, which they can use to repair damaged parts. AI-controlled units will also be able to use this tool.
  59.  
  60. AI changes
  61.  
  62. Significant progress has been made recently in AI pathfinding, especially for vehicles. AI-controlled tanks and wheeled vehicles should now move more realistically on the battlefield and reach their destinations faster. While this is a substantial improvement, the AI has also received several smaller adjustments recently and will continue to be enhanced in future updates.
  63.  
  64.  
  65. Tunisia and the Second Sino-Japanese War
  66.  
  67. We are almost done adding new vehicles and props for the new free Tunisia campaign, and those are already accessible on the Map & Mission Editor. We now plan to make a few desert uniforms for British and German army. In the meantime, now that the Stalingrad campaign is fully reworked, we will also start focusing most of our map making efforts into making this map and it's missions.
  68.  
  69. As for the Second Sino-Japanese War DLC, we are almost done making the buildings and the uniforms for this campaign. Then we will also have to finalize the weapons, the vehicles, the map and the missions. This campaign will be finalized after the Tunisia campaign, and we hope to release it during the Fall.

  72. Playstation release & Console Updates
  73.  
  74. All the changes up to this update are now being delivered to Xbox and Nintendo to wait for their approval which as usual should take around 10-15 days.
  75.  
  76. Also we can finally confirm that a Playstation 4 and Playstation 5 version of the game is being worked on and we hope to release this around Christmas.
