Moderators Volcano Posted August 5, 2022 Moderators Share Posted August 5, 2022 Ah yes, if you mean that the laser guided FFAR Hydra APKWS is not present and cannot be given to the helicopter, then you are correct. Either that was an oversight, or there might be a technical reason -- we will look into that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Solution Volcano Posted August 5, 2022 Moderators Solution Share Posted August 5, 2022 OK, that was fast. It was removed for a technical reason, at the moment. So basically, it was added to the Apache but then later removed because its laser guided behavior is not yet supported in code (and so it behaved exactly like the standard rocket. It was removed to avoid confusion). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apocalypse 31 Posted August 5, 2022 Author Share Posted August 5, 2022 Gotcha. No worries and thanks for the response. Weird question: Was this the first time the Hydra 70 APKWS was 'added'? I could've sworn that I've seen it in the readme in previous updates. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Volcano Posted August 5, 2022 Moderators Share Posted August 5, 2022 Right, I believe it was added before. As commonly happens -- we do something, then undo it, then years (or months) later forgot why it was undone, then redo it, then realize why it was undone, and repeat. This happened before, I believe. 😵 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ssnake Posted August 5, 2022 Members Share Posted August 5, 2022 Or, we tested it in the beta branch, but it was then NOT merged back into the main branch - because, still in development. But it still creeps into the automatically generated release notes, and even though I attempt to sanitize them of everything irrelevant for the target audience of such a changelog, it's probably inevitable that some entries escape my attention. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
