Game Patches & Updates
When Campaign #46 went live, we slipped in a little feature. I'd coded these a long time ago but never enabled them because I didn't get a chance to test them. While I was waiting on the scoring processing for today's campaign reset I decided to run my little test battery. Chat shortcuts are 5 letter codes you can type into a chat message that the server will swap out for meaningful information. Each starts with a '$' symbol followed by a four character "subtitution name"
$orig
$targ
Are replaced with the name of your mission's origin or target respectively.
$lead
Is replaced with the callsign of your mission's current leader.
$unit
Is replaced with the short form of your current brigade, e.g. 1.Division/1.Brigade
$miss
Is replaced with your "mission" name, which is the same as $unit/$miss... E.g. 1.Division/1.Brigade/KFS1 |

v1.29 Production Update- Keep on killing in the spree world |
Ok boys and girls, it's time for a quick word about current (v1.29) production tasks. We're hard at it as usual, and since this is such a large development cycle with the Chinese (client/host localization) requirements creating a huge amount of work we otherwise wouldn't be involved in (translating everything and creating that client compliancy is enormous just by itself!) but things are humming along, if humming means tearing your hair out. 8] |

 I vividly remember my first day in WWIIOL. I spawned into Vireaux and wandered around aimlessly for an hour or so. I checked out the buildings, the AB, perused the landscape. I randomly pushed buttons on my keyboard and clicked on stuff to see what would happen. Then I got shot in the noggin and understood why tourism dropped drastically in France in the late '30's.

Day 2 Campaign #47 12am - The German paratrooper sat silently in awe as the noisy engines of the Ju 52-3M chugged into life. A thin smile spread on the young man's face as he thought about finally getting a chance to put his training to good use. He checked and re-checked his kit during the short flight and he didn't even notice the rolling and bumping as Werwulf expertly manoeuvred the iron beast through the skies.
