MH Warfare — Changelog

0.5.0 Beta 3

Beta 3 is a large gameplay, systems, presentation and optimization update. It introduces the FP-1 and Geran-2 heavy strike-aircraft stack, substantially expands the Ground Station and Tactical Map, improves Remote View and long-range rendering, rebuilds analogue/digital signal presentation, overhauls drone audio, and adds major collision, damage, destruction and multiplayer hardening.

• Added body-relative angle of attack.
• Added lift derived from airflow rather than a constant world/body-up force.
• Added quadratic lift response and progressive post-stall lift loss.
• Added body-axis drag and sideslip behavior.
• Added aircraft/load mass influence where real platform mass data is available.
• Low-speed/high-angle flight can now enter a stall and descend more aggressively.

• Improved high-speed drone-vs-drone collision reliability.
• Improved P1-SUN kinetic interception against FP-1/Geran-2.

P1-SUN interceptor improvements

• Removed inappropriate passive fixed-wing lift behavior from the interceptor profile.
• Added consistent high-speed collision handling.
• Increased P1-SUN anti-drone effectiveness against heavy UAVs without globally increasing ordinary player damage.
• Added heavy-aircraft lethal-interception outcomes, including bounded airburst/explosion, engine-out glide, control-loss descent, asymmetric structural break and catastrophic unpowered fall.
• Added side/rear-aware structural outcome localization for heavy-aircraft interceptions.
• Kept P1-SUN as an interceptor with its own physics path rather than forcing it into generic fixed-wing glide.

Wild Hornets / FPV control improvements

• Added a shared low-throttle control-authority curve for Wild Hornets-style FPV control.
• At very low throttle, attitude/yaw authority is reduced instead of remaining unrealistically full-strength.
• Authority progressively returns as throttle rises.
• Added separate keyboard and gamepad throttle behavior.
• Keyboard flight uses a latched throttle: Space raises, Shift lowers, releasing the key holds the current value.
• Gamepad flight uses an absolute/dynamic throttle mode with automatic input-mode switching.
• Added safe fallback to keyboard mode after gamepad disconnect.
• Added full-attitude quaternion ACRO integration for Wild Hornets.
• Pitch, yaw and roll are integrated as body-axis angular rates into a persistent quaternion state.

• Added Ground Station-backed Molniya control-session authority and station-relative control checks.

General GUI

• Added a shared fullscreen widget canvas for newer drone screens so GUI Scale 3/4 does not push FPV controls off-screen.
• Added a shared render-state guard so Remote View/Tactical Map rendering does not leave vanilla GUI widget text with corrupted alpha/color state.
• Applied the GUI/render guard across Ground Station, Sych-1, Mavic, Baba Yaga, P1-SUN, Wild Hornets and Molniya-1 screens.

Ground Station and Tactical Map overhaul

• Reworked the Tactical Map so terrain ownership belongs to the Ground Station, not to whichever drone is currently selected.

• Added visible map states such as READY, PARTIAL and LOADING.
• Added one-time persistent cache invalidation when map color packing changed.
• Corrected Minecraft map-color ABGR -> RGB conversion.
• Added true block-level terrain sampling over the normal close Tactical Map range.
• Added restrained terrain contrast/saturation, local relief shading and real material/height boundaries.
• Added coarse-to-fine rendering so cached fine tiles can sharpen a coarse view without forcing an immediate new request.
• Added cursor X/Y/Z readout using already-cached terrain data.
• Added finer-LOD sample reuse to seed compatible coarser LODs.
• Added progressive map-request scheduling with bounded chunk-ticket, capture, queue-probe and packet budgets.
• Reduced map-generation backlog and server tick spikes while exploring new terrain.

• Completed map tiles can receive authoritative refresh patches without being replaced by incomplete progressive data.
• Added a higher-fidelity 0.20x regional overview with multi-probe color averaging and preserved narrow terrain features.
• Regional overview can preserve observed road/built/water/canopy characteristics and bounded local relief.

• Added an 11-row scrolling fleet list.
• Reworked fleet synchronization to avoid per-drone DataSlot fanout.
• Added a server-side fleet discovery index based on the existing loaded-drone snapshot instead of repeated broad world scans.
• Added client cache hygiene and bounded LRU state for map/route data across multiple stations/drones.
• Added optimized live fleet-map markers with cached projection/labels and reduced per-frame allocation/fill overhead.

Remote View / Chuyka improvements

• Improved Remote View terrain/entity scalability and reduced broad entity iteration.
• Reworked entity refresh paths to operate on bounded tracked/delivered sets instead of repeatedly scanning the whole dimension.
• Added authoritative player visibility heartbeat for Remote View.
• Player heartbeat is bounded and round-robin processed.
• Added UUID + entity-id reconciliation for synthetic Remote View players.
• Added multi-pass removal grace so transient visibility misses do not immediately remove a player.
• Added server lookup fallback for live players when the normal entity-id lookup path is temporarily insufficient.
• Added routed player-removal filtering consistent with the heartbeat/grace contract.
• Added explicit Remote View entity identity leases for custom snapshot-spawned entities.
• Improved destruction cleanup so removed drones do not remain as stale Remote View ghosts.
• Improved real-entity/proxy identity handover so a newly available authoritative entity suppresses the detached visual proxy.
• Improved controlled-drone camera/model synchronization in Remote View.
• Primary controlled drone presentation now follows the same authoritative camera carrier instead of visibly lagging behind it.
• Added compatibility for authoritative yaw/pitch/roll camera replay when Just Enough Guns (JEG) is installed.
• Final player transform ownership is single-source: the custom heartbeat handles existence/self-heal while vanilla movement/teleport packets own an already-existing RemotePlayer transform.
• Synthetic player creation initializes the vanilla packet-position codec so subsequent relative movement starts from a valid baseline.
• This substantially improves stationary remote-player stability without increasing Remote View radius or vanilla tracking distance.

Long-range drone visibility and motion

• Added detached long-range visual proxies for MH Warfare drones outside normal vanilla entity-rendering distance.
• Long-range visibility reuses the existing loaded-drone snapshot and does not force player view distance or synchronously load/generate chunks.
• Candidate selection is nearest-first and capped at 24 proxies per player.
• Transform updates remain bounded at 5 Hz with slower full visual-state refresh.
• Final long-range visibility ranges:
  • Wild Hornets / Mavic: 1280 blocks;
  • P1-SUN: 2048 blocks;
  • Sych-1 / Molniya-1 / Baba Yaga: 2560 blocks;
  • FP-1 / Geran-2: 3072 blocks.
• Added client-side frustum culling for long-range proxies.
• Added real entity-id + UUID handoff so a close-range vanilla entity replaces its proxy cleanly.
• Replaced simple spring-style distant movement with a time-based snapshot buffer.
• Added interpolation between authoritative long-range snapshots and very limited extrapolation only during short packet gaps.
• Added angle unwrapping across ±180 degrees to avoid long-way yaw/pitch spins.
• Added partial-tick visual interpolation so distant motion is smoother at high client FPS without increasing server packet frequency.

Signal, RF and electronic warfare presentation

Analogue video

• Rebuilt analogue FPV interference into a dedicated post-processing pipeline.
• Added moving scan shimmer, dense RF snow, tracking/sync instability, chroma drift and horizontal picture breakup.
• Poor analogue links progressively lose colour instead of immediately becoming a clean black screen.

• Reduced effect-pass scene sampling from 4 scene samples to 3.
• Replaced many separate scalar hash evaluations with 2 packed hash evaluations.
• Removed the per-fragment sine oscillator from the hot path.
• Kept full-rate post-processing and the accepted visual presets.

Drone audio overhaul

• Reworked regular drone audio into a bounded source-budget planner.
• Up to 12 powered nearby motor cues can remain independently audible while one nearby detail owner receives richer layered sound.

• Added hysteresis around optional-layer activation thresholds to avoid rapid source churn.
• Reduced regular persistent source pressure while preserving the nearest detailed drone and long-range heavy-aircraft channels.
• Added explicit cleanup of MH Warfare-owned sound handles on client login/logout lifecycle transitions.

Voice/radio audio lifecycle

• JavaSound playback no longer needs to remain open for an entire world session when idle.
• Playback/capture now use demand-driven activation with short close-grace periods.
• Microphone capture is limited to actual voice/PTT/monitor/settings demand rather than remaining permanently open.
• Reworked PTT/squelch transition cues to remove piercing deterministic tone/carrier components and use short filtered mechanical/noise transients instead.

Damage, destruction and environmental behavior

• Expanded Drone Damage V2 / Physical Damage V3 coverage across heavy aircraft.
• Added flight-critical degradation paths instead of treating all subsystem damage as cosmetic HP loss.
• Rebalanced Baba Yaga structural/lift damage so destroyed lift stations have meaningful flight consequences.
• Baba Yaga can remain flyable after limited lift loss but enters forced degradation/failure as critical lift/structure is lost.
• Added universal explosion camera shake profiles for multiple drone/payload explosion classes.
• Added a universal drone water-contact policy for supported aircraft.
• Explosive combat loads receive one persistent server-authoritative water-fuze outcome rather than rerolling every water tick.

• Placement validates both cells before changing the world and restores prior states if another hook invalidates the operation.
• Improved compatibility with modpacks containing placement/render hooks such as Axiom/Moonlight-style stacks.
