TacBF revision 3.20.0 has been released. (26 Mar 2016)

Good news. A v3.20.0 update has been completed. It is now available for download by the usual methods. Note: that servers may still need to be updated first.

This update is mainly a set of important bug fixes, code improvements and a new Mission Voting dialog.

Yes, CUP terrains are being considered to replace AiA_terrains, fairly soon. Other mods to be considered after that.

Change log for TacBF v3.20.0

Mission Voting dialog:
Added: a new Mission Voting & Preview dialog.
- The dialog can be accessed via: Player menu->Configuration->More->Missions Voting.
- It can be accessed during the game, plus voting can be started during the game. Votes will be carried forward to the end game voting for next mission.
- Allows you to see a list of almost all TacBF missions. (Newest missions might be absent until each update.)
- An admin option exists to allow you to manually add missing missions, which are then maintained by the server (until rebooted).
- Each mission includes a map image of the mission layout.
- A map image is also available of every island, for missions without a mission image.
- Filter options available: mission name (partial search allowed), game mode, player count, terrain name.
- Voting allows you to choose a range of mission names and/or features you want to play next. Players are limited to 5 votes. Admins are not limited.
- Voting results are tallied and shown to all players, where further voting on those votes can then be done.
- Tooltip hints exist for each caption, to explain what various colours mean and other details.
End game screen:
Tweaked: end game duration increased from 30 to 180s
Added: screen now includes a "Ready" button and for admins a "Finish" button.
Added: screen now includes 2 new list for Played missions and Mission Votes, plus a "Vote for Next Mission" button.

BattlePrep:
Fixed: the defending side should now have half of the normal BattlePrep duration, allowing for early base deployment/exit.
Observations: It seems it may not detect the defending side for some missions, resulting in the normal duration.
Fixed: the defending side should now have access to base deployment options, upon BattlePrep ending.
Fixed: the defending side now shows the "BattlePrep" ended message.
Observations: It seems it may not always show the attacking side this message, but the top countdown banner is obvious enough.

General:
Fixed: A&D: major bug where both factions were considered to be defending, if mission did not specify attacking side. This caused many problems including tickets and respawn issues.
Fixed: first aid: fixed various first aid messages, which had incorrect parsing.
Fixed: nearest medic now includes entire team, not just squad.
Fixed: first aid message: was reporting missing icon: unitbleeding_ca.paa
Fixed: messages: get in 'Boarded.' name was showing driver instead of new passenger.
Fixed: menus: 'Inventory' menu option via Interact on small ammo boxes, now works.
Changed: ammo: reduced GL HE shells limit from 6 to 3 if opposing player count is <= 13 ('low player count').
Fixed: endMission: Added missing function class endMission. This prevented game ending upon detection of invalid mission set up.
Changed: Push boat now allows 1 person to stay in boat and also stops drift after 3m, to prevent it drifting away indefinitely.
Tweaks:
Reduced: HO: default max HO count for mission has decreased from 6 to 5. Missions usually override this anyway.
Tweak: Fixed: AI: flag touch radius changed to 15m from 5m when AI on, due to AI not path-finding complex objects sometimes.
Tweak: Fixed: progress bar: in demolition missions, for defending side, progress bar now shows text "Defend ..." instead of "Destroy ...".
Fixed: removed "mins" from some messages.
Changed: reduced AFK minor dur from 300s to 240s.
Tweaked: Messages: Deploy_RP message was Side, not Group.
Squad Management:
Fixed: bug existed where increasing group size limit beyond 7 was not working, even though it says it did.
Changed: default group size limit for Resistance factions has now increased from 6 to 8, plus max group size is 12 for Res always.
Markers:
Tweaked: Pre-placed structure markers:
a) Ramparts are now drawn as skinny wall, not large block.

B) Warfare structures are now drawn with solid outline.

c) CamoNets/(sheds?) are now drawn with diagonal pattern.
Added: Markers: Pre-placed razor wires are now drawn.
Mission Dev's:
Fixed: Validation of zoneList.hpp was reporting DEPQTY checks with incorrect range values. Message clarified.
Added: Validation of zoneList.hpp value types
Fixed: Validation of zoneList.hpp was reporting negative zone id's as invalid, which was incorrect.
Code:
Code: XEH: Standardised all TB object classes to be extendedEventHandler compliant, (via ": DefaultEventhandlers" method).
Fixed: Menu keys: these would sometime not initialise quick enough at the very start, causing script errors for a minute.
Changed: Code: keybinding init improvements.
Fixed: menus/AI: bug with changing AI settings not being broadcast back to clients, for use via menus.
Fixed: Zones: BIS_fnc_MP was complaining about nil targets at start for triggers.
Fixed: Zones: had wrong syntax in some parts relating to: _condition = "this"; OR (_zoneHeightRange isEqualTo [])
Added: Debug: Added: "Show cursorTarget parents" tool menu option - also handles odd warfare configs which are not detected by cursorTarget.

Change log for TacBF v3.21.0

New A&D Defender Spawning rules:
Changed: In A&D, if defenders tickets reach zero, they normally cannot use any forward spawn point at all. It was intended to slow down the attacks by the defenders, which worked well for smaller missions. But in larger missions, it often meant travelling 2 km or more, sometimes by foot when no vehicles were left.
Now it will allow you to use any spawn point which is further than the configured minimum distance to any active objective border.
By default this is automatically scaled by mission size to be [300, 500, 600, 700, 900] in metres.

Mission dev's:
There is a new optional setting for mission dev's: ICE.respawn.infantry.minZoneRespawnDist_ifNoDefenderTickets[] = {300, 500, 600, 700, 900};

Base Deployment/Respawn dialog:
Added: Defender Respawns: Respawn dialog now shows the Defender Respawns boundaries on the map, while the dialog is open.

Mission Voting:
Added: mission names & map images: Sir Poundalot, Hills have Eyes, Attack Time, Op Blackout, Op Trident, Witches Cauldron, "Priwet (wrong move)".
Removed: mission names: Steel Balls, Vacancy, Landing, Sabotage (for now).
Changed: coloured lists with player counts, to highlight rows when suggested player count is far outside of current player count
Changed: Vote Missions: new player range scales used, plus new Automatic scale applied by default, to reduce players voting for missions which are too big/small.
Changed: Vote Missions: full mission details (name, type, size) shown over map image, not just name.

Processes Lists:
Added: Debug: view active processes list (via menu option: Config->Debug->Processes List).
Changed: processes list: Temporarily show TB PFH CPU duration usage of every PFH call.
Added: Processes debug lists now includes a perFrameHandlers list too. Lists are sorted and color coded.
Added: Processes: Upon toggling it off, it will dump the current lists to the RPT log.

Vehicles:
Changed: Vehicle respawn: Reduced the deserted distance for most vehicles,
eg: for cars from [10, 10, 25, 40, 60] to [10, 10, 15, 15, 20] for [T,S,M,L,H] sizes.

BattlePrep:
Fixed: BattlePrep: For defenders, the Base Deployment options were still disabled after their BattlePrep had ended. (A new separate 'start time' was required for them.)

General Changes:
Fixed: Gear: SL kit: Override squad size requirements in missions for taking a SL kit, since it interferes with the automatic allocation of the SL kit during creation of a squad.
Fixed: Damage Engine Parts: script delays fixed to be non-instant.
Changed: Models: MG ammo box for vehicle mounted MGs (eg: M2 on pickup) changed from ammo pallet to standard ammo box (containing multiple MG magazines).
Changed: Tried to enable "Navigation" menu while using rangeFinder or laserDesignator, but does not seem be working yet, but try it.
Changed: Mines: added Gunther's mine config's. It reduces the blast range and damage for AP mines, to make them more of an incapacitating effect rather than instant kill.

UI Changes:
Fixed: Admin menu options should now work again.
Fixed: crew names: "Boarded" message now shown via vehicle chat, with name and seat included. Crew names HUD will also auto appear upon each person boarding.
Added: Base Deployment dialog: displayed current tickets in header. Useful to know when deploying often.
Added: Team tickets are now shown on Bleedout screen. This helps you to decide whether to respawn or not if tickets are low or zero.
Fixed: Bleedout screen: nearest team member was not always found.
Changed: Missions: Map: in editor, all zone markers now show their average radius and all links show their distance.
Changed: Missions: in editor, upon mission start, average objective distances stats are shown in a message.

Menus:
Added: New menu option "Fix hidden chat window" for anyone who finds their chat window disappears during the game. Unsure what is causing it, since TacBF does not do it.
Added: "Hide respawn counter bug" to "Configuration.More" menu.
This is a workaround for now, since sometimes the bleedout screen leaves the respawn counter visible after respawn.
Added: New menu option "Bury" for dead people. Hides body in 6 seconds.

Medic tags HUD:
Added: when a player requests a revive or treatment, all nearby players will see the injury icons over them, not just medics.
Fixed: the injury icons medics see over people are now more accurately drawn and hidden properly. The icons are more vibrant for visual clarity too.
Fixed: the Identify key to show player names is now always synchronised with showing/hiding the injury icons (for medics) too. Before it would sometimes show the opposite.

Trivial changes:
Changed: Fixed: "request capture progress" caller marker was not placed on caller, but player.
Changed: Difficulty: New Arma 3 mission difficulty commands applied.
If difficulty settings are unsuitable, it will still warn players, but it will not terminate the mission any more (for now).
Fixed: minor script error upon capturing a zone.
Fixed: Scoreboard showed Mission Voting captions, but it shouldn't.
Changed: Tasks List: something is causing the (briefing) Tasks List to put the active objectives at the top, even though we don't want that!
I am trying to use 'priority' to fix it, but I think Arma 3 is just using a silly unwanted new sort method.

Major Coding and Optimisation Changes:
Changed: Squad HUD: major: refactor code. Watch for any issues.
Changed: Medic tags HUD: major: refactor code. Watch for any issues.
Changed: Optimisation: Suppression: major: (tried to) optimised by ignoring all bullets which do not pass within certain angles of your body, since they will not land near you.
This should help the client a lot, especially with many players and many bullets, such as heli MGs and general MGs - potentially reducing up to 400,000 loops, assuming 80 players were firing an MG at 5 bullets/second.
Tests to do: test that bullet direction is sufficient to determine weaponDir, especially on mounted weapons and heli's.
Changed: Optimisation: Suppression: stop monitoring bullets, if they go past you.
Fixed: Removed 100 of 150 unnecessary debug processes in attachInit.

Minor Coding and Optimisation Changes:
Changed: PerFrameHandler: Temporarily forced usage of TB PFH code, in order to track CPU duration usage of every PFH call. Will try to find a way to track CBA PFH code calls too somehow.
Changed: PerFrameHandler: changes to make new system work for first major usage.
Changed: Vehicle respawn: refactor code. Watch for any issues.
Changed: Respawn dialog: refactor code. Watch for any issues.
Changed: Voting options: refactor code. Watch for any issues.
Changed: Zone capture: refactor code. Watch for any issues.
Changed: Code: Voting: modified voting system to allow parameters for same voting option. Eg: to allow a choice of durations to extend game time. New options to be added in next release.
Changed: Code: added debug messages to diagnose why "Report capture progress" menu option does not become enabled sometimes.
Dev: Fixed: Many "%1,%2" link uniqueness markers seem to have been stored backwards as "%2,%1".
Dev: Added: logged warning if getZoneTrigger called before ready.
Changed: Optimisation: respawnTrailer monitoring
Changed: Optimisation: monitorSupply & replenishCargoQuantities
Removed: attempted RDS fix removed, for RDS error message: Cannot open object rds_staticw\spg9\og9.p3d & pg9.p3d
attempt to speed up high player count loops
attempt to speed up marker drawing
reduce frequency of some addPerFrameHandler calls by extending periods

.

Change log:

Kit Count bugs:
Fixed: Bug in ICE_gear_fnc_adjustMaxKitsAllowed. During start-up, it potentially initialised the role arrays with nil items.
Fixed: gear/kitInit timing bug
S&D Game Mode:

Much thanks to Harold for report & solution of most of these S&D bugs.
Fixed: caches considered to be Armaments box and were indestructible by hits.
Fixed: the "Take >" menu on caches.
Fixed: the caches composition mix-up
Fixed Bug #76670: S&D cache destroyed bug: new script error due to Arma v1.62 "Killed" EventH changes.
Added: marker for estimated cache position radius
Auto-Balance:
Added: Auto-Balance checks: When joining a match, if it is imbalanced, it will notify you and return you back to the lobby, where you will need to switch sides to be able to join, or wait for other players.
Changed: Auto-Balance: It will now allow you to join the same side you were disconnected from, even if that causes further imbalance.
Menus: Added admin menu option: "Enable/Disable Auto-Balance".
Eden Property Editors:
Added: Eden Property Editors: Most of the TacBF Initialization setVariable variables (about 14 of 18?) have now been integrated into Eden`s property editor dialogs,
which includes: Vehicles for respawn variables, Armaments for camoNet, HO for tickets, TRP for tickets & life duration.

This is not fully tested yet, so refrain from starting to use it until v3.24 is released.

General bugs:
Fixed: Bug #76661: (Menu) Request map markers were white. Plus name was missing from request message.
Trivial changes:
Fixed: Respawn position: (Minor) when respawning over water position, it will now place you inside a valid building position or on top of platform, if present. Previously, it placed you at water level under the buildings.
Added mission: Radical_exercises.
Changed: Player will now lower weapon whenever interacting with a base object.
Changed: Updated detected addons code for new cfgPatches configs, plus updated credits, under Map->TacBF Help->Version.
Changed: AO Boundary Border is now scaled in thickness and edge gap distance, based on the size of the box.
Apex Config bugs
Fixed: Arma 3 Apex loading screen is now fixed. It now animates the 3 middle boxes and removes some garbage News text.
Fixed: various itemInfo class references
Fixed: model.cfg: Various model.cfg changes, in an attempt to fix log warnings, but unsure if warnings are even related to this mod or a 3rd party mod.
It`s just trial and error. Bloody useless error messages in log, BIS! Which object/class has the error?

The same error doesn`t even appear in the log when binarizing models.
Fixed: removed old "\CA\ui\..." ref`s

Fixed: Config start-up errors like: "Warning Message: No entry 'bin\config.bin/CfgWeapons/*.scope."

Resolved. All @TacBF missing class warnings (since Apex changes) are now fixed.

It included fixes for:
* Warning Message: No entry 'bin\config.bin/CfgWeapons/ItemInfo.scope'. // Changed to ToolKitItem
* Warning Message: No entry 'bin\config.bin/CfgWeapons/WeaponSlotsInfo.scope'. // Moved WeaponSlotsInfo local to each weapon class
* Warning Message: No entry 'bin\config.bin/CfgWeapons/ItemInfo.scope'.
* Warning Message: No entry 'bin\config.bin/CfgWeapons.Single'.
* Warning Message: No entry 'bin\config.bin/CfgWeapons.FullAuto'.
* Warning Message: No entry 'bin\config.bin/CfgWeapons.manual'.
* Warning Message: No entry 'bin\config.bin/CfgModels.default'

Mission Gear Config error handling improvements:

Mission gear config: Improved design error messages.
Mission gear config: Improved error handling: Added type checking for gear listed in mission gear sqf files,
which is commonly either: string, array, random array of strings. Eg: _uniform = "U_B_abc";
Mission gear config: Improved error handling: It prevents repeating the same error 50 times for 50 units in SP.
Mission gear config: Improved error handling:
If a mission includes civilian units, the loadout system does not yet cater for it, so it now gracefully handles empty loadouts for civilians.
Changed: When start-up loadout detects invalid gear (especially uniform/helmet), it now shows a clearer message for the reason and action to take.
"Your current uniform (className, 'displayName') is not allowed/available in your faction's Inventory/Gear. Edit 'uniform[] ='. Providing default."

Technical Code changes:
Fixed: various small fixes.
Changed: Eden Assets Browser: WIP:
TacBF objects/classes are currently not being listed in Eden Assets Browser, due to having a `side` property.

Objects belonging to TacBF mod, will now depend on new `TB_side` property to replace the BIS `side` property.

The `side` property is is due for removal in TacBF v3.24, along with other related changes.

This event is a non-linear campaign consisting of two consequent missions:
Stage 1: A&S mission
Srage 2: A&D mission (stage 1 winner is attacking)
I.e. Stage 2 territory and available assets are dependent on Stage 1 result.

Teams (Sign-up is optional)

STORY

Google translate :o
In 2006-2008, Republic of Chernarus, Eastern European country because of internal political contradictions, which escalated into civil war was introduced a joint peacekeeping force of Russian and NATO troops. The country was divided into zones of responsibility. After a long time the worsening national fragmentation has led to a retraction once peacekeeping troops are in a war against each other. Russian troops are advancing from North to South, trying to push blue to the sea; NATO troops moving up from the South to the North and is trying to squeeze the red mountains to the North. Red reinforcements from the North through the passes, to the blue sea side, where the grouping of ships of the European countries .

GENERAL INFO AND RULES

TacBF has been too casual and random lately. Let's take a chance to make it more fun and add some more tactics and teamplay. Let's play TacBF the way it's meant to be played :mrgreen:

Event #1 was quite fun (even tho 80% of signed up SLs did not show up :evil: ), OPFOR has been victorious in the 1st battle of the campaign, throughing BLUFOR back to Camp Muladost, but couldn't proceed any further, so final score is 1:1. 8-)

Event #2 is coming soon, stay tuned!

Briefing and Battle Preparation: 30 minutes (can be canceled as soon as both teams are ready)
Duration: ~3 hours
Squads are formed, strategy and tactics are discussed and vehicles crewed and loaded during paused Battle Prep.

:!: During briefing time Squad Leaders should:
1. Form squads and assign squad mates to 2-3 fireteams (don't ignore this feature, coz it helps to keep your squads in order, let FT leaders take care of themselves and their FT members)
2. Request targets from Commander or discuss strategy with other SLs
3. Prepare FOs, construction supplies, static weapons e.t.c for transportation
4. Mark desired FO positions, LZs, your squad's targets e.t.c using map icons (example: FRODO:FO#1, SAM:LZ#1, GENLALF:DEFEND(over CapZone) e.t.c)

:!: Anyone can sign up for the event (bare in mind there is only 20 slots per side to avoid uncontrolable chaos on the battlefield):
1. Join squad (squad management)
2. Pick your squad's frequency (numpad)
3. Contact your Squad Leader or Fireteam Leader for role and further orders

RULES

1. No not-in-squad players
2. No players without TaskForceRadio and/or mic
Don't occupy channel 1 unless the rest are taken
3. No lonewolfing (sniper/marksman kit is requested by SL. Got kit without a squad? > warning > kick)
4. CAS is only given to pilots, that approved themselves by airtrans or other useful activity
All CAS and airtrans pilots should be in the same squad
5. No tonimontana (jk) Any player whose skill is far beyond most players must take Squad Leader role and lead less experienced players (mostly newcomers) into the battle focusing on teamplay, intersquad communication and overall team performance. Share your outstanding experience with others, it'a teamplay event not solo frag fest.
6. AFK over 10 minutes - kick
7. No noob SL's, each squad should use RPs and help up with FOs if requested
SL's should call their destination in LR Ch1 and mark it on map. Utilize map with max efficiency
8. Commander role is occupied by any well known and experienced TacBF community member.
Commander can be replaced by another person during the event if necessary
9. Sign-up starts ~1 week before the event
10. Minimum 80% of assets at main should be utilized from the very start of the mission

Refusing to follow any of these rules might result in warning and following kick. We spend our time on this not to let anyone ruin our work :)

SERVER WILL BE LOCKED, PASSWORD WILL BE DISTRIBUTED IN TACBF TEAMSPEAK SHORTLY BEFORE THE MATCH

:!: Join Official TacBF Community on Steam not to miss our events!

:!: I strongly recommend to have a fireteam for each 3 players in a squad, and not more than 7 players per each infantry squad. So having at least 2 experienced TacBF members per squad is reasonable minimum.

:!: DISCORD Chatroom for active community members willing to participate for event organization and mission editing:

Acknowledgements:
Many thanks to both Harold, omL & anyone who was involved with testing, detecting and reporting many of these bugs.
Special thanks to Harold for finding the cause & providing solutions to most of the S&D bugs.

Change log:

Armaments/Gear:

Fixed: RHS weapon and attachment changes sometimes caused a weapon or attachment class substitution, causing loss of that item during kit validation.
It also affected some scopes when the view mode/reticule was changed. It also affected some scopes when the view mode/reticule was changed.
Kit count bugs:
Fixed: bug where kit count was counted for players on both sides, instead of selected side.
Fixed: Restore kit: a syntax error was corrected, which may have affected an accurate kit count when returning a kit.
Changed: Possible fix for negative kit counts. Upon returning a kit, it was not setting the player's kit to new kit, before counting.

S&D Game Mode:
Fixed: cursorTarget bug: Interaction key on cache: added work around to allow object Interaction menu to still work via Action menu "Interact".
(to workaround bug in Arma 3 v1.56+, which broke cursorTarget command for objects inside buildings, doh!).

Auto-Balance:
Fixed: auto-balance: client would not end game if auto-kicked due to imbalance.
Added: for CoOp games only, (which is players attacking with AI defending), you can also specify some players for the defending side as a ratio, like 1 defender per 4 attackers. See settings below.

Eden Property Editors:
Deleted: Eden Properties: temporarily removed all TacBF Eden object property editors.
They are affecting vehicle spawning and are currently considered incomplete and untested.

General changes & bugs:
A long list of 30+ bug fixes (not all listed here). Thanks to Harold, omL & anyone involved for testing, detecting and reporting these bugs.
(Changed but) Reverted: upright object (eg: static weapon): rewrote code to force object to stay upright/grounded. (Did not work properly.)
Fixed: View distance: After using Video menu to change view distance, TacBF will now validate whether the new distance exceeds the current limit, to avoid exploit.
(since Arma 3 now allows player to override setViewDistance insisted via code, doh!)
Fixed: player respawn: spawn in buildings: building search radius now reduced from 200m to 50m.
Changed: suppression: values for suppression blur amount and recovery rates have been drastically reduced. Still testing for suitable values...
Fixed: Vehicle side: side was determined by nearest zone, but with nearby small zones or nested zones, wrong zone was sometimes chosen. It now checks if the vehicle is inside a zone and uses that first, then the nearest zone otherwise.
Changed: Roles dlg: (WIP) (hidden) UI changes for new Roles dialog
Fixed: destructible zone objects sometimes not becoming destructible upon zones changing.
Changed: Briefing Dialog: now includes the "onLoadMission=" text block from the description.ext file, which can be a multi-line structuredText.
Changed: CrewNames: Crew names list box now includes the number of emtpy seats too.
Fixed: 2 script bugs affecting TFAR.

Trivial changes:
Changed: all TB flag poles should now appear upright. Most mission devs had a hard time keeping them upright via Eden.
Fixed: sounds: new generic rifle shot sound, for player termination kill sound for treason acts.
Fixed: cache: sabotaging your own cache results in death penalty. Fixed associated gun shot sound.
Changed: Destroyed vehicle messages now show vehicle/MW type.
Fixed: Configs: replaced incorrectly defined author array properties with strings
Fixed: Init: random door opening/closing at start of mission was not working reliably.
Replaced animateDoor with animate, since animateDoor & animateSource proved to be unreliable (both A2/A3 buildings used).
Changed: Briefing->Vehicle summary list now sorts (or rather "groups") the vehicle types in each zone.
Changed: Briefing->Vehicle summary list now replaces RHS WIP pictures with a suitable picture, similar to the vehicle type.
Changed: Map: Added more editor wall types to be drawn on map.

Mission/Gear Validation:
Fixed: Gear validation results are now separated into Blue and Red sides in RPT log file.
Changed: Improved detail for gear validation messages on screen and in RPT log file.
Fixed: Gear validation was resetting validated gear based on final criteria.
Added: Missions: Default Gear Config validation. Very useful.
But it still has trouble with RHS auto-added rhs_acc_dtx.

Eden, Mission Development & Settings:
Fixed: TB_Logic: proper handling in MP of missing TB_Logic (game logic object).
Added: (WIP) destructible zone objects: zone objects can now be considered "completed" via a task action, rather than requiring demolition. WIP: other code in mission still.
Added: (WIP) added (_x getVariable ["ICE_cache", false]) checks for cache objects, to allow different object models to be set via mission
Added: Destructible zone objects: these objects are now included on the briefing Tasks list.
Each object is listed with it's name. I tried to add pictures, but many small objects (eg: laptop) do not have pictures.
The zone centre is used for the attacking side, if object markers are hidden.
TODO: write up a post on how to use Destructible zone objects in a mission.
Changed: Terrain type setting: Added preparations for new terrain type "tropical".
Added: Objects: New large MW supply boxes. Eg: Classes: ICE_staticWeaponCrates_supply_large_east_empty. Model not changed yet. (WIP?)
Changed: Extended zone name possibilities to include "A"-"Z" (anything) for very high zone count usage. Eg: 30+ zones/FBs
Added: Debug: in SP, viewing "Supported Ammo" on vehicles/mounted weapons, now includes the class name required, to aid mission dev.
Added: Map: bridge map feature icon (since Arma has no bridge icon)
Added: Missions: Markers: Text: Markers named "TB_text_X" (where X is a number from 0 or higher), it will create a tidy "location" text using the marker's text. Use marker type "empty" to hide markers.
Eden support: now allows TacBF composition objects to be dragged in real-time, with "attached"/associated objects moving with main object.

Mission Co-op AI support:
Added: CoOp games: you will need to indicate when a mission is designed as a CoOp game. (Later we will auto-detect this.)
Modify: mission\tb_settings.hpp->ice.mission.CoOp.supported = 1; // 0=no, 1=yes.
Added: AI: new routines to automate AI defend, attack, patrol, searchArea. Calls CBA equivalent functions at the end when ready.
Added: AI: Hides AI markers plus disables AI simulation, for AI in zones which are not active, to improve client and server performance.
Fixed: CBA: AI: Fixed bug in fn_cba_taskDefend.sqf (as temporary workaround, until @CBA update released).
Added: auto balance: for CoOp games only, you can specify setting as a ratio fraction, like 1 defender per 4 attackers.
Modify: mission\tb_settings.hpp->ice.mission.autoBalance.ratioAttackersDefenders = 5; // -1 means unlimited; 5/1 == 5 == 5:1 == 5 attackers:1 defender; 1/4 == 0.25 == 1:4 == 1 attacker:4 defenders
Fixed: AI: zone patrols were being limited to about 100m, instead of zone radius. S&D still defends cache with a closer patrol radius though.
Fixed: AI: added stealth behaviour for some random AI
Changed: player markers: AI: hidden AI and their vehicle markers are now properly hidden on map and GPS maps, which improves performance. (AI can be hidden with simulation disabled, at start up at forward non-current objectives, to improve server performance.)

Technical Code changes:
Changed: Server maintenance: some settings are now handled server-side via data files, to allow easy periodic updating without requiring a new build.
Mission voting lists: Now supports updating of various lists via server-side data files, (since Arma 3 does not have a server command to detect what missions are on server, doh!).
Lists handled via userconfig file: missionRecords, terrainRecords, [new](highlight)recentlyAdded(missions), [new]hide(deletedMissions). (Full details by request.)
Changed: Mission voting: UI now highlights newly added missions.
Fixed: Code: some event handlers ("killed", "hit", etc) had the new _instigator parameter missing but had optional parameters too, causing a bug.
Changed: Debug: When "fast zone capture" debug is turned on, it will now speed up the "delayed zone captured" timer too, not just the "zone capture duration".
Fixed: vehicle respawn bugs: variables: ICE_spawn_players_min & ICE_spawn_players_max were using lowest player count of both sides, but should have used opposition count and friendly count, respectively.
Changed: Setting: ["respawn", "SRP", "maxFriendlySiteDist"] now defaults to average zone distance, if none specified.
Changed: tried to get Eden sliders to step by whole 1 unit. Not working.
sliderSpeed[] = {50, 200}; // does not work
scrollSpeed[] = {50, 200}; // does not work
Changed: Various changes to XEH configs: class EventHandlers: DefaultEventhandlers // EventHandlers
