1.0.15

Release 1.0.15 released!

What a long old journey this update cycle has been! Really excited to share with you some new gear, some of the great new features in 1.2, and quite a few fixes and improvements to go with them.

- L42A1 Sniper rifle
- PRC349 Radio
- Shrike Exploder (model kindly provided by Whiskey2Shots)
- Hayrick Demolition Charge
- PE4 Explosive
- L1A1 Bayonet
- Schermuly Rocket Flares
- Baseplate Compass
- Updated 68 pattern combat uniform
- Added 84 pattern combat uniform
- Tropical Pattern Trousers
- Gloves
- L8 7.62mm Enfield Rifle (very basic, no zeroing yet)
- Much expanded Faction Units and Groups to closer match vanilla
- Improved AI Skill level to better match competitors
- Upped MP group size from 6 to 8 players
- Sterling has proper zeroing out to 180m
- Sterling now has 34 round magazines
- Adjusted Sterling Recoil
- GPMG Reload animation
- Improved idle animations for Bren and GPMG
- Increase GPMG Sway
- Improved GPMG sounds
- Improved GPMG colliders
- Increase Bren Sway
- Fixed missing Bren collider
- Rucksack GS same storage volume as ALICE Pack
- Made Large Pack storage volume a little bit larger
- Added sounds to backpack open/close
- Flashlight colour tweaked
- Fixed weapon inspect on GPMG, hiPower, Sterling, L1A1, Bren
- Fixed AR15 rear sight not flipping properly when set to 300m
- Fixed AR15/M203 not respawning properly if saved at arsenal
- Fixed AR15 collider shape leading to odd behaviour when dropped
- Fixed missing helmet textures
- Fixed missing textures on RAC Helmets
- Fixed floating 58 pattern belt when dropping smocks
- Fixed 58 pattern belt being replaced with Alice belt when vest is worn
- Fixed backpack radio sometimes attaching through center of chest

Unfortunately due to the complexity involved I'm going to have to remove the Commando Ops - Arland mission for now, expect an updated/replacement mission as a fast follow soon. Enjoy GMing in the meanwhile!

Known issues:
- Enfield L8 hasn't got proper rear sight animation on zeroing. Working on it, just wanted to throw in a little toy that's a bit more work in progress than the usual stuff we share!
- If you have an slr equipped and attach a field dressing to it, it won't show up until you drop and pick up the gun again. Bit of a pain!
- Field dressing on SLR sometimes seems to make the weapon reload animations jitter too. :man_shrugging: 
- Due to some vanilla BI bugs around how animation blending works, there are some small jitters when animations start/stop.
- In crouch, sometimes the shrike animation will be offset in a way that looks funny - again, we believe this is a vanilla bug (happens with vanilla detonators too)
- If AI are equipped with the schermuly, they will pull it out, not use it, and then just stay stuck like that!

With very special thanks to the team:
Rebecca Williams for working on the PRC349 radio
Khaos for fantastic weapon animations
Commander Eagle for string table and faction set up

And additional thanks to:
Whiskey2Shots for providing the Shrike exploder model
reyhard, momopirou & PUDDY300 for their continued support and guidance on getting our animations working
TMC The Motley Crew for testing
Bacon for providing fantastic server hosting
All our Discord members for helping motivate us and being along for the ride!

We're still on the look out for team members! If you are into scripting or mission making, please enquire about opportunities to help bring British Forces mod to the next level.
