Hello everyone. A small update today as Command takes the step to Build 1527. A good number of fixes and tweaks are included with this release, with the main features being the addition of a repeatable loop order for laying minefields.

In addition, this update takes us to the v509 release of the DB3000 and CWDB databases. You can find all the units added to the database in the changelog below

The full changelog is available below, happy hunting everyone!

Command v1.07 Build 1527 release notes (changes from Build 1487)
====================================================================

ADDED: Option for Repeatable-loop movement style for mining mission
ADDED: [Lua] Added waypoint wrapper to unit.course
ADDED: Added "Max Range" option to WRA firing-range selections. This allows differentiating between the weapon's explicit max range and the system default (which might be e.g. 50% of max).

Includes the v509 release of the DB3000 and CWDB databases.

TWEAK: Various tweaks for contrails:
- Contrails cannot be formed outside the atmosphere
- The temperature-at-altitude is now calculated dynamically from the sea-level temperature, using the US standard atmosphere model, so the altitude threshold for contrails forming now varies with the time-of-day and local surface temperature. (The temperature can vary widely with altitude: https://apollo.nvu.vsc.edu/classes/met130/notes/chapter1/graphics/vert_temp.gif )
- Airships and other craft using non-combustion propulsion (e.g. pure-coasting or nuclear) do not generate contrails
- Weapons using boost-coast propulsion generate contrails only during their boost duration. Weapons using "cruise" propulsion (e.g. turbojet or piston/turboprop) can generate contrails throughout their flight
- There is a "transition" layer between -40C and -50C temperature at which contrails can be formed but are weaker than at lower temperatures; this is reflected by lowering the visual size of the generated contrail by one magnitude (e.g. medium to small).
TWEAK: [Lua] Tweaks to AdvancedDialog
TWEAK: "Load [scenario] From File" now displays an error in case it fails to load. Extra checks applied.
TWEAK: Modified the styling on the EMCON / WRA / Sensors buttons on the right column, to align them more with pre-existing format
TWEAK: [Lua] Adjusted Add/Set reference methods to be relative to RP and contacts too
TWEAK: Changed style of WPF buttons ("EMCON WINDOW (Ctrl + F9)", "WRA Window", "Sensors Window (F9)", "Doctrine Window (Ctrl + F9)")
TWEAK: Altitude poles are rendered as dashed lines for easier differentiation from other UI elements
TWEAK: Various tweaks on the display of navigation points in pin-cushion view. Also the selected weapon's (estimated) intercept point is displayed in its true altitude.
TWEAK: Speed improvement on showing the Doctrine-ROE window
TWEAK: Numerous sim-engine and map/UI performance tweaks
TWEAK: Button padding in mission editor so text is not cut off
TWEAK: Raised the minimum camera altitude to 500m (instead of 10m)
TWEAK: [Lua] Push firing unit to unguided weapon wrapper
TWEAK: [Lua] Add data binding to SpecialMessage
TWEAK: [Lua] Render HTML messages without adjusting if a DOCTYPE
TWEAK: Enforce a hold and hold end WP/time for missions that DON'T have a TOT.
TWEAK: Area Clipper tweaked for more reliable shape intersections
TWEAK: Various tweaks to missile loft autopilot logics
TWEAK: Tweaks to post-loft terminal dive behavior, to maximize duration at higher altitude (shed as little speed as possible)
TWEAK: The Defining of RP areas will result into an error if there is not Side created to avoid crashes.
TWEAK: Drawing a Polygon RP will allow you to not create a zone.
TWEAK: Replaced infinite random selection to cumulative-weight random selection for component damages
TWEAK: Removed altitude blending (ie. fade-out on zoom-in) for borders and coastlines layer.
TWEAK: [Lua] Added package list to Lua mission wrapper
Various sim-speed and map-rendering speed tweaks

FIXED: Pre-unit slug-trails causing save corruption in certain cases
FIXED: Precise WP estimation for flight with no time constraints
FIXED: Precise flightplan ETA calculation for patrol missions
FIXED: #16105: Weapons DLZ issues
FIXED: #16370: Error Fuse when an aircraft is evaluating threats
FIXED: Exception when checking for distance from launch-point for torpedo self-destruction
FIXED: arrow keys not working for moving maps
FIXED: WRA issues
FIXED: #16292: Duplicated Mk1 eyeball when saving + loading
FIXED: #16378: Aircraft not firing mobile decoys at strike mission targets
FIXED: Weapon turns toward (0,0) when intercept becomes impossible
FIXED: Cluster weapon reporting miss when weapon's explosion radius < dispersion radius of the unit
FIXED: #16381: Aircraft not firing (engaged defensive while on flight plan)
FIXED: #16353: Applied an .ini during a scenario deep rebuild crashed
