##### Introducing DCS: F-100D Super Sabre by Grinnelli Designs

https://store.steampowered.com/app/4767260/DCS_F100D_Super_Sabre_by_Grinnelli_Designs/

##### DCS: F-100D Super Sabre by Grinnelli Designs

-  Manual additionally available at https://grinnellidesigns.github.io/f-100d-manual

-  Known issue: Gun/Strike Camera do not record when in external view

-  Known issue: BOLT-117 fuzing not correct

##### DCS Core

-  Calling Airbase.getDesc() for the "painted H" pads on Syria & Germany causes the game to crash - fixed.

- Crash when connecting to server after mission loading in sim start process - fixed.

##### Multiplayer

-  Added netcode synchronization and new logic for Zero Length Launch entity with animations and gameplay ground service constraints

-  Issue with air dropped cargo if crate destroyed, but visual model remains in sim on a dedicated server - fixed

##### AI Aircraft

-  Developed new logic for AI units using Zero Length Launch platforms

-  Added new AI ground attack logic for Toss Attack (including rockets and bombs).

-  Fixed: Fighters AI. The helicopter UH-1H, Mi-8MTV2, Mi-24P, Mi-26 are targeted even though the enemy is given a Search and Engage task with "helicopters" unchecked.

-  AI planes will perform a distant evasive maneuver against a hostile aircraft or ground radar, not against a missile they shouldn't be able to see (except ARH missiles).

##### AI Surface

-  Fixed. 052C general livery still shows flag

-  Fixed: SCUD cannot move after launch.

-  Fixed: Artillery would not perform any further actions after depleting its ammo.

-  Fixed: Tor SAM system no longer tracks targets through terrain.

-  Fixed: Incorrect turret traverse limits on T-72B3.

-  Fixed: P14 not operating properly for S200.

-  Fixed: LR indication on M1A2 MBT — now blinks "0000" when the selected weapon exceeds maximum range.

-  Fixed: Launcher rotates before raising the turret for ATGM BRDM-2.

-  Fixed: Country origin for Historical mode for BRDM-2 and Strela-1.

-  Fixed: Stinger does not use superelevation of tube at launch, so the missile hits the ground in some cases when shooting at low-level target.

##### GUI

-  Dynamic spawn support for Zero Length Launch platforms added

-  Settings. Max FPS slider - allowed to increment by 1

-  Dynamic spawn loadout issue with saving last loadout used and autofilling it even if next flight is on new server where some items of this loadout may be unavailable - Fixed

- The choice of Geo Grid appearance now will be saved between sessions.

- Collect game related statistics information and explanation window was updated and statistics collection choice have been reset as a reminder for users. Please choose “Agree” in new pop-up window if you want to help us improving DCS.

##### Mission Editor

-  ME. Added new static units category and “Point take off” and icon for Zero Length Launch assets and first asset ZELL for F-100D

-  ME. Weapons panel. Saving a mission will now attempt to apply default weapon settings in case a pylon contains none.

-  ME. Added ability to view/edit lua-scripts that are saved or added in the mission via triggers like DO SCRIPT FILE etc. With line numbering and syntax highlighting.

-  ME. Directional left key does not work - Fixed.

-  ME. Added new advanced waypoint action Toss Attack for rockets and bombs with relevant parameters.

##### Triggers

-  Added fade switch On/Off for images triggered in game.

##### Scripting API

-  Potential fix for S_EVENT_HIT / S_EVENT_KILL missing on kill trades

-  Wrong attribution of coalition on kills of statics and S_EVENT_KILL missing - Fixed

##### Weapons

-  CM-802AKG missile modeling updated with INS, route planning and is now on par with AGM-84H SLAM-ER on detail
