They've got 'em for sure this time. We just gotta find 'em.

Let's celebrate America day with a brand new update that doesn't actually feature that many American faction changes.

Important Changes:

  • Added gas cloud effects for large scale anthrax and nuclear weapons
  • Effects: Scud Storms, Anthrax Bombs, Nuclear Missiles, Baikonour Missiles, Mega Buggies, Toxin/Nuclear Bunkers
  • Increased the damage of these large scale weapons
  • Green Anthrax cloud damage increased, from 30 to 45
  • Blue Anthrax cloud damage increased, from 40 to 60
  • Gamma Anthrax cloud damage increased, from 50 to 75
  • Nuclear Missile radiation damage increased, from 30 to 70
  • Nuclear Missile radiation now damages aircraft that fly within the fallout zone
  • Anthrax clouds will now be pushed by wind, moving from their original deployment spot
  • Each Scud Storm missile creates a small Anthrax cloud, which wanders around its detonation spot
  • Updated Scud Storm and nuclear missile button ToolTip to show the new features

General Changes:

  • Helicopters that hit the ground upon dying will deal heavy damage to any infantry caught underneath. Beware
  • Kirovs deal damage to anything nearby when they land on the ground

American Factions:

  • Chrono Soldiers no longer use power when firing their weapon. It was a bit wonky sometimes
  • Attempted to fix Chinook supply collection rate with animation speed
  • All Chinooks now bring in $1,200 per transaction
  • Chinook collection rate increased so the net doesn't do strange visual things like 'I pick things up and put them down'

America Humvee General:

  • Crusaders have tracks again. Speed unaffected
  • SUPER SPECTRE GUNSHIP FOR AMERICA
  • Removed marginally useless F18 Hornet Strike
  • Added Super Hercules, available at Rank 7
  • Deploys a big and slow gunship to a large target area for 45 seconds
  • It's extremely bullet resistant, but is 'weak' to missiles (40% armor from infantry missiles)
  • Gets 2 sets of flares, each with 50% evasion rate after Countermeasures upgrade

USA Airforce, Laser and Superweapon:

  • Added Air Control Center for all USA Factions except Vanilla and Armor
  • It does nothing
  • Air Control can be upgraded to allow your USA Faction to deploy the Turbo Mega Spectre
  • Requires Rank 7 to construct
  • Allows these factions to deploy the Super Hercules, but in a slower and more expensive manner

USA Super Train General:

  • Fixed Alpha Humvee particle effects on snow maps

China Vanilla:

  • Landmines created from dying Chinese units now self destruct after 60 seconds
  • This is to help performance, as the landmine light fx adds to the particle cap
  • Changed the reload of MiG ECM Smoke. From 80 to 90ms (applies to all Chinese air units with this)
  • Covert Officer ClusterMines should now properly explode after their time limit (all Officers)

China Tank General:

  • Added unique voices for Tank General's War Miner. Equal share for everyone
  • Doubled War Miner machine gun damage, from terrible to bad (4 to 8)
  • War Miners are 30% heavier

Chinese Nuclear Missiles:

  • Normal Nuclear Missile radius increased
  • Inner blast radius increased, from 120 to 140
  • Outer blast radius increased, from 230 to 250
  • Finally got around to scaling the Mega Nuclear Missile radiation field
  • Mega Nuclear Missile now deals all ticks of damage (10), like normal Nukes
  • Mega Nuclear Missile damage per tick reduced, from 750 to 450
  • Refined damage amount and radii on the Mega Nuke explosion
  • Things take 450 damage per tick within 250 units of the epicenter
  • Things outside this zone, and out to 410 units will take 250 damage per tick
  • Nuclear Convoy Truck now appears on the radar as intended

GLA Factions:

  • Mortar Marauder build time reduced, from 30 to 22
  • Scimitar build time reduced, from 30 to 18
  • King Cobra build time reduced, from 20 to 16
  • Fixed ToolTip saying GLA Airships are buildable at Rank 5. It's actually Rank 7 with the reworked system

Dr. Thrax:

  • Chemical Mortar hotkey changed to A to fix conflictions
  • Fixed Chemical Mortars; They are now SALVAGER
