0.57.1
Fixes
- Related to some units at airfields being always spawned in:
- Ensured that non-general garrisons (AA and helicopter garrisons) are not reinforced from general garrisons.
- Reduced anti-air garrison spawn distance to 5km (was 10km before).
- If you have this issue, campaign restart might be required!
- Fixed wrong button colors in 'arsenal to vehicle' UI, thanks to @Lazejun
- Duration of vehicle repair action by AIs increased to 45s (was 10s before).
- Fixed: friendly recruited units had no radio and no FAKs.
ACE mod (in)compatibility
- Mission now ships with more overrides for ACE options through cba_settings.sqf:
- Disabled ACE Advanced Vehicle Damage because it prevents vehicles blowing up (and thus not compatible with how our AI works).
- Disabled 'ace_noradio_enabled'. By default it was enabled and was muting player.
- Fixed: many AI unit loadouts had ace_novoice speaker, which was muting them.

^ by @SomethingSimple and @sparker - Ace repair wheel and Ace repair track added to the building UI, by @SomethingSimple
