We are currently implementing some of the new tricks we learned with the Fw190D/Ta152 into the Bf108.
We have a new payload module that fixes the CTD on exit issues some users are currently experiencing.
Some of the key programming features such as the variable pitch propeller code are now converted from xml to simconnect formats what effectively leaves us with a much cleaner and more reliable code. This also fixes event flooding issues to improve performance both offline and in multyplayer.
On popular request we are implementing ADF capability and a 2d popup radio into the IFR version.
Here is a w.i.p. render of the 2d radio stack.
