• Patch 0.17.4.2 - 3 October 2026

  Map redesign New "Scheme" map style (dark theme) is now default for all players. OSM and satellite views remain available in settings. Cities and settlements now glow with lights on the Scheme map — just like viewing them from space at night. Redesigned city labels on Scheme: no backgrounds, colored lines matching faction colors. Fixed massive map icons that would sometimes freeze and fail to disappear when zooming. Workshop and mod system Saved mods now work immediately in the sandbox — no need to publish for testing. Duplicate mods (local and from Workshop) are automatically merged — no more copies. Prevented accidental overwrites: can't create a new mod with the same ID as an existing one. Mod menu shows which mods have been edited but not published. Mod menu window now scrolls properly — buttons no longer go off-screen when entering lobby. Custom mod missiles and bombs now have thei…

• Update 0.17.4 Hide and Seek - 30 September 2026

  Version 0.17.4 New Added new AWACS aircraft Added new AI drones resistant to electronic warfare Added warehouse explosion effect Launched in-game workshop and mod editor! Players can now create, edit, and share custom modifications directly in the game without needing external tools. Support for custom units, maps, textures, and game parameters Changes Removed Nizhny Novgorod, replaced with Lipetsk Lobbies are now infinite again, after defeat a menu with a "Continue" button is displayed and players can continue playing endlessly Balance Changed damage of unguided rocket pods and amount of flares on Su-25 Fixes Fixed issue with disappearing allied icons in certain graphics settings Reworked PTUR launch mechanics on helicopters, radius is now reduced and launch occurs automatically Fixed transport of reconnaissance drones via transport aircraft Added new units to initial placement menu. F…

• Patch 0.17.3 - 2 September 2026

  Balance and combat The Yak-52 and Mi-8 no longer target cruise missiles, Neptune included — under any conditions. S-400: ballistic intercept chance raised from 60% to 70%, same as Patriot. Ground vehicles turn twice as fast. Heavy launchers and AA now come round onto their waypoint properly instead of overshooting it. Expanded weapons loadout for the Su-30SM. GBU-39 now costs 750, up from 350. MALD goes from 600 to 800. Interceptor drones Interceptors are no longer treated as targets by AA and SAMs, and they no longer attack Neptune. They only go after what they're supposed to. Progressive pricing for ballistic launchers Every ballistic launcher you build (Iskander / Hrim-2) costs more than the last. It ramps gently: 5,600, then 6,200, 7,100, 8,300 and up from there. The price counts your surviving launchers. It recalculates itself on reconnect, and handing a launcher to an ally doesn't…

• Patch 0.17.2 - 25 August 2026

  MECHANICS Added drone shuttle mechanic from airfields. Added Major Gav to main menu. Added basic tutorial (expanding based on your feedback). REBALANCE Kh-32 loses speed during turns and becomes a regular cruise missile. Range reduced from 560 km to 210 km. R-77 and AIM-120 receive increased max speed - now catch up with F-16 and Su-30SM in afterburner. Building destruction time increased from 30 to 120 seconds. Storm Shadow price reduced. FIXES Fixed AI issues. Fixed FPS drop when over 300 air objects present.

• Close Support 0.17 - 21 August 2026

  Mi-24 and Mi-28 attack helicopters Two new gunships with a ground-facing autocannon. They come with a range of hardpoints - unguided rockets, Vikhr ATGMs, Igla - mounted through the loadout editor.New class - ground attack aircraft: Su-25 The main trick is low-altitude flight: the Su-25 slips under the long-range SAM envelope and reaches the target unnoticed. New ordnance - FAB-250Sh and FAB-500Sh: droppable without climbing.Interceptor drones: P1SUN and Yolka Stationary-mobile counter-drone cover: the kamikaze interceptor automatically takes down enemy drones inside its zone. P1SUN for Ukraine, Yolka for Russia.F-16 and Su-30SM fighters Multirole air-superiority fighters - one per side.Electronic warfare systems Tigr-based for Russia, Kozak-based for Ukraine. ⚠️ Watch out: EW jams friendly targets as well as enemy ones. There's a chance of hijacking control of an enemy drone.Changes He…

• Update 0.16.5 - 13 August 2026

  Private lobbies on our server P2P is no longer required. Rooms now run on our own hosting — NAT, shared IPs and hosts dropping out stop being your problem. Rooms can be open or private. Everything is configurable: mode, time limit, victory condition, resources, points. Inside you get chat, bots and full lobby customization: assigning and closing slots. The "Lobby" button is in the multiplayer menu, next to P2P. Decks — deploy your army before the battle No more fixed starting army. Before the match you build your own starting position with points: bases, AA, aircraft, vehicles, buildings — whatever you think you need, as long as it fits the budget. Each team gets its own deployment budget, separate from in-game money. Works in private lobbies and in ranked. Bots deploy themselves too. Ranked settings: 1350 points per team, $30,000 starting cash. Fixes Improved bot intelligence and behav…

• Patch 0.16.4.3 - 11 August 2026

  Interception zones updated Aircraft now scramble by capacity instead of all at once: 20 drones → 1 helicopter (Mi-8), 10 drones → 1 Yak-52, a fighter covers = its missile count. A fighter's drone capacity now counts R-73 (IR) only — radar R-77/R-27 are no longer wasted on drones. Launch priority: helicopters first, then jets. Surplus aircraft stay on the airfield in reserve for the next waves. Air-defense target settings — now per-player Each player (slot) has their own target filters and overkill limit, even in 2v2 / 3v3. An ally's settings no longer affect yours. Scoring Shooting down your own unit by friendly fire now gives points to no one (including the enemy). Points for aircraft/vehicles are awarded only for a genuine enemy kill

• Patch 0.15.9.2 - 25 May 2026

  Fighters, a fresh patch is already in the game! In this update, we focused on a complete overhaul of the network code to ensure large-scale battles run smoothly, and also fixed a few annoying bugs in controls and graphics. Network and multiplayer New combat synchronization: We implemented compression and batch sending of unit and missile data, as well as adaptive frequency and upload budget for the host. 2v2 matches with a large number of units no longer hit RAM limits and don't freeze the ping indefinitely. Protection against "lagging" players: A single player with a bad connection will no longer ruin the match for everyone else. A hopelessly lagging client will be automatically disconnected after 30 seconds and returned to the main menu. Improved reconnect: Accepting an invite to an active match immediately drops you into the game into the same slot. Reconnecting to an ongoing game co…
