About ALiVE 3

The definitive ALiVE for Arma 3

ALiVE is the dynamic, persistent-war framework for Arma 3. Place a few modules in the editor and it builds a living campaign, with AI commanders fighting for objectives across an entire map, one that plays and remembers itself whether you take it on solo or with a group. ALiVE 3 is a top-to-bottom overhaul of that framework.

Since March 2026, the remaining ALiVE development team has been working through ALiVE one module at a time: modernising the code, fixing long-standing issues, sharpening the editor and tablet experience, and adding new capabilities across force placement, the AI commanders, air tasking, combat support, civilian life, and the systems underneath. The aim is an ALiVE that is more robust, more capable, and easier to get into than any version before it.

ALiVE 3 is targeted for its final release in December 2026. It will be the last release of ALiVE for Arma 3, the definitive version of the framework for the game. It also sets the foundation for what comes next: ALiVE 3 will form the basis for ALiVE 4, the next generation built for Arma 4 when that game eventually arrives.

ALiVE 3 is built by a small, dedicated development team, led by Jman, alongside community contributors and a group of active testers and mission makers whose reports and ideas steer the work week to week.

Recent updates

What has changed across these briefings, newest first. Each linked entry opens the page it updated.

• 2026-11-03
  The network diagram now shows how it is kept secure: six numbered checks, from the server's key and DLL to who sees the live map, each marked working today or still to come. War Room →
• 2026-11-03
  Added a diagram of the whole War Room network: game servers, each group's own War Room server, alivemod.com and the live map, with what works today in green. War Room →
• 2026-11-03
  When a Recon task reports, the side's Air Commander (or an allied one) is asked for a strike there and then: a Strike on up to three of the vehicles seen, or CAS on up to three groups on foot when no vehicle was seen. A recon the AI Commander asked for with Find Out Before Attacking leaves the strike to that commander. C2ISTAR →
• 2026-11-03
  On a dedicated server running the War Room test server mod (@alive_wr) with Database Source on Local, Statistics now switches on and sends its events to the new War Room on alivemod.com, and the server log says War Room link found. Without that mod nothing changes, and AAR and PerfMon stay off either way. Persistence →
• 2026-11-03
  Statistics records again on a dedicated server running the War Room test server mod (@alive_wr): kills, deaths, shots and vehicle use go to the new War Room on alivemod.com, signed with the server's key. Players in from the start of the mission are recorded too. Without that mod it stays off, as before. Statistics →
• 2026-11-03
  Reconnoitre Objective: when you report, your side's Air Commander (or an allied one) is asked for a strike on what you saw, a Strike on up to three vehicles or CAS on up to three groups on foot. A recon the AI Commander asked for with Find Out Before Attacking leaves the strike to that commander. Task Missions →
• 2026-11-03
  With an ALiVE Data module on Local in the mission, a test server now sends ALiVE Statistics' events to alivemod.com: the operation starting, kills, deaths, shots and vehicle use, each signed. The server log says War Room link found when it starts. War Room →
• 2026-11-03
  A task's Enemy pick that no AI Commander in the mission fields is now swapped for the factions of the commanders hostile to that side, so defence waves and Exfiltration hunters stop turning up as vanilla CSAT in a mission with no CSAT (seen by NeisAEL). A pick that is in play is kept, and a mission with no hostile commander keeps its pick as it is. C2ISTAR →
• 2026-11-03
  With ACE, road and town IEDs now sit about half above ground, and come back at the same height each time players return to a town. Before, they sank until only a sliver, then nothing, showed. An IED defused with ACE takes its demo charge with it instead of leaving it lying on the ground. IED →
• 2026-11-03
  The Radio Log now also keeps the down, back and lost notifications of Player FOBs and rally points, worded the same as the Logistics Hub's. ALiVE (Required) →
• 2026-11-03
  A FOB whose headquarters is destroyed now shows on its side's map with the time left to repair it, such as "FOB Alpha: down, repair within 15 min", and "repair under way" while an engineer is at it. The notifications now read "FOB Alpha is down. Repair it within 15 min or it is lost." and "FOB Alpha is lost."; repairing, salvaging and capturing work as before. Player FOBs →
• 2026-11-03
  A hub that's destroyed or dismantled now shows on its side's map with the minutes until it's back, such as "Logistics hub Depot: down, back in 5 min", and drops off once it's back or removed. A destroyed hub's notification now reads "... is down. It comes back in about 5 min.", or "... is lost." with Repair Time (s) at 0; a dismantle notice still says who did it. Logistics Hub →
• 2026-11-03
  A rally point waiting to come back after Overrun repair time now shows on its side's map with the minutes left, such as "Alpha 1-3 rally point: down, back in 2 min". Its down, back and lost notifications read the same as a hub's or a FOB's and go in the Radio Log too; a squad's own point tells just that squad. Rally Points →
• 2026-11-03
  A hub made with Create Hub is now kept over a restart when the mission saves, with ALiVE Data or with Player FOBs set to Persistent, with its name and owner. Making or removing one saves straight away; one made on a mission object comes back only if the mission still has that object. Zeus Modules →
• 2026-11-03
  Hubs a Zeus made with Create Hub are now kept over a restart when the mission saves, with ALiVE Data or with Player FOBs set to Persistent, and come back with their names and owners. A container Zeus put down goes back where it stood; a hub on a mission object comes back only if the mission still has that object. Logistics Hub →
• 2026-11-03
  Rally points a squad leader or a Zeus put down are now kept over a restart when the mission saves, with ALiVE Data or with Player FOBs set to Persistent, under their last names. A Zeus point comes back where it was (one on an object only if the mission still has that object), and a squad's goes back down once a squad with the same callsign is on its side. Rally Points →
• 2026-11-03
  A rally point made with Create Rally Point is now kept over a restart when the mission saves, with ALiVE Data or with Player FOBs set to Persistent. A backpack goes back where it was; a point on an object comes back only if the mission still has that object. Zeus Modules →
• 2026-11-03
  New setting Overrun repair time (0, gone for good, by default): an overrun rally point comes back after that many seconds. A squad leader's comes back where it stood unless the squad has put another one down or is gone; a placed one comes back if its object still stands. Rally Points →
• 2026-11-03
  An admin now gets a Permissions button in the Rally Points window, which changes Who can manage for every rally point in the mission. The change is kept over a restart when the mission saves, with ALiVE Data or with Player FOBs set to Persistent, until an admin presses Use module settings. Rally Points →
• 2026-11-03
  A Sabotage marker now goes once the attempt is over: when the saboteur is killed, or 15 minutes on with the building still standing. Before, it stayed on the map, and in captured intel, until the building came down. OPCOM (Military AI Commander) →
• 2026-11-03
  With Drug Labs on, a smuggler drives a pickup or open van loaded with sacks and bundles from each lab to the nearest town and back while a player is within 2 km, so you can follow him home. Wreck the car, kill the driver, or get him out and stand by him, and that lab stops speeding up recruitment for 30 minutes. The new Drug Smugglers setting turns it off. OPCOM (Military AI Commander) →
• 2026-11-03
  The groups the commander sends to look at an objective are now its SpecOps groups first, nearest first, with ordinary groups filling any places left. A side with no SpecOps groups picks as before. Find Out Before Attacking →
• 2026-11-03
  An admin can start the Player Logistics save over without touching the AI Commanders: Clear Saved Vehicles and Buildings Only, under Persistent Data in the admin menu. Objects stay in the game until the mission restarts, and nothing more is saved for them until then. Player Logistics (Settings) →
• 2026-11-03
  Persistent Data in the admin menu has a third entry, Clear Saved Vehicles and Buildings Only. It takes out just this mission's Player Logistics save and keeps the AI Commanders' objectives, installations and roadblocks; the notification says how many were cleared, and Player Logistics saves nothing more until the mission restarts. Persistence →
• 2026-11-03
  A recon of an objective now goes to the commander's SpecOps groups first, nearest first, with ordinary groups filling any places left. A side with no SpecOps groups picks as before, and capture, defend and Command orders are unchanged. OPCOM (Military AI Commander) →
• 2026-11-03
  Players close together now draw one suicide bomber between them, not one each: the wait after a bomber is sent goes to every player within 150 m of his target. Driven car bombs start at least 300 m from their target and every player (it was 150 m). Bomber Wait (minutes), Bomber Wait Shared Within (m) and Car Bomb Start Distance (m) set all three. IED →
• 2026-11-03
  Moving a saved vehicle or object in Eden between sessions no longer leaves two of it: the Eden edit wins. A save made before this can still double one once. Player Logistics (Settings) →
• 2026-11-03
  A ground transport waiting at the end of a Move order can be sent home with Return to Base. Before, the button was greyed out and only another Move order would shift it; it still stays off while the transport is at its base (within 75 m). Combat Support →
• 2026-11-03
  A car bomb driven at a player now sets off for its target. Before, it often sat on its start road with the engine off; the charge and the load under it now go on once it has pulled away, within 4 s of setting off. IED →
• 2026-11-03
  Car bombs carry signs a careful player can spot, each its own setting under Vehicle-Borne IED: the load under the car, a rear that sits low (off by default), a beeping timer within 25 m, a detector warning within 10 m and a driver who comes flat out. Driven car bombs are kept off ACE's headless clients as well as ALiVE's. IED →
• 2026-11-03
  Leaving factories out of Installation Types now stops an Asymmetric commander building them. Before, it still built an IED factory or drug lab in any town whose civilians opposed it. OPCOM (Military AI Commander) →
• 2026-11-03
  Suicide bombers wear three explosive charges on their chest that every player sees, and no longer lose their vest when moved to a headless client. Left at the default, Bomber Vest uses a loaded mod's own suicide vest when there is one. The tooltip's example class is corrected to V_BandollierB_cbr. IED →
• 2026-11-03
  The network diagram spells out what TOC, JOC and COP stand for, and calls the game servers game servers. War Room →
• 2026-11-03
  Servers set up from a test group's download now register themselves with a join code; pasting the key is the fallback. Owners can get a new join code if a download is passed on. Added a planned card: orders into a running mission. War Room →
• 2026-11-03
  Groups in the War Room test can download the server mod from the panel. Getting started is rewritten for it: no in-game commands, and the key is copied from the server log. War Room →
• 2026-11-03
  What it handles now says what works today (signed records, the outage queue, groups and server keys, Windows and Linux servers) and what comes next (replays, a live map, campaign records and stats). War Room →
• 2026-11-03
  Register your servers: groups sign in with Discord and register each game server's key, and the page has setup steps for servers taking part in the test. The War Room is now in testing. War Room →
• 2026-11-02
  A parked reserve vehicle whose crew group had been removed no longer fills the RPT with hashSet and HashGet errors every time it wakes; it's handled like one whose vehicle was destroyed. Virtualisation & Spawning →
• 2026-11-02
  Talking to civilians works on missions where the module started while map data was still loading; before, the civilian menu never opened, with an RPT line about alive_civpop_interaction_wateritems. Ambient Civilian Population →
• 2026-11-02
  The ORBAT Creator now waits for the map's data to finish loading before it starts, as the Civilian Population module now does, so it never starts with half its lists missing. ORBAT Creator →
• 2026-11-02
  Combat Support now waits for the map's data to finish loading before it starts, as the Civilian Population module now does, so it never starts with half its lists missing. Combat Support →
• 2026-11-02
  A FOB deploy with a Deploy Time now finishes on a busy server; before, the bar could fill and start again forever, as the server timed it on its slower game clock. Player FOBs →
• 2026-11-02
  With Soldier Behaviour on, soldiers in cover look over walls, round corners and out of windows to shoot back, and garrisoned men keep their post. Military AI →
• 2026-11-02
  Soldiers handed back by Soldier Behaviour no longer stay kneeling or hold their group up. Military AI →
• 2026-11-02
  Soldier Behaviour carries on when groups move to a headless client. Military AI →
• 2026-11-02
  Soldier Behaviour follows the skill tier: recruits go to ground sooner and stay down longer, experts hold out and look out sooner. Military AI →
• 2026-11-02
  With Soldier Behaviour on, soldiers under heavy fire get behind something solid, kneel, and rise to shoot back. Military AI →
• 2026-11-02
  With Soldier Behaviour on, soldiers feel the fire aimed at them: rounds passing close or hitting nearby raise their alarm, explosives most, rifles least. Military AI →
• 2026-11-02
  The AI Skill module is now called Military AI in Eden, with a new Soldier Behaviour switch (off by default). Saved missions load unchanged. Military AI →
• 2026-11-02
  In Eden, the COP Display Sides row shows its own title and sides and saves them; before, it showed and changed Commander Intel Sides. C2ISTAR →
• 2026-11-02
  A module's faction picker left with nothing selected (say its saved faction isn't in the list) keeps the faction it had, with a warning in the RPT, instead of quietly saving vanilla CSAT. ALiVE (Required) →
• 2026-11-02
  The AI Commander waits for the Air Commander to finish starting before asking it for air recce. Before, an early request could be dropped, with an RPT line saying it arrived before the module started. OPCOM (Military AI Commander) →
• 2026-11-02
  An admin's Clear current mission's data (and Wipe ALL) now removes the saved craters too; before, they came back on the next load. Persistent Craters →
• 2026-11-02
  New module, Persistent Craters: shells, rockets and bombs leave craters that stay, and artillery and bombs dig the ground. Roads, runways, buildings, FOBs and military objectives are kept clear, and craters are kept over a save. Persistent Craters →
• 2026-11-02
  On a slope, a wide defence built from a FOB sits on the ground under its whole length instead of tilting to the bit under its middle: on 13 degrees every corner is now within 0.13 m of the ground, where a 3 block H-barrier used to dig 0.39 m in. Player FOBs →
• 2026-11-02
  In single player and for a hosting player, defences built from a FOB went in tipped and half buried; they now sit where the preview shows, and one aimed at another lands on top of it. Player FOBs →
• 2026-11-02
  New setting, Recruit only what placements place (off by default): when on, an asymmetric commander leaves out AA and APC groups its synced placements don't place. Off, it recruits them as escalation rises, as before. OPCOM (Military AI Commander) →
• 2026-11-02
  Step 5 shows the whole list each FOB will offer, with ticks, Never Build, Also Build and each kind's extras added up. Classes the page doesn't know show as rows in the list, marked By class name, and saved lists show how many items they offer again (they said 0). Build and Supply Catalogue →
• 2026-11-02
  Load my list now reads every class your mods add, Never Build and the preset's cuts included, and a short report under the button says what it read, what the page already knew, and what it skipped and why. An RPT with several scans in it loads each class once. Build and Supply Catalogue →
• 2026-11-02
  With Debug on, the build list written to the RPT for the website lists everything the game has, not only what was left after Never Build and the Build List Preset. A new ALiVE_FOB_CATALOG_COUNT line says how many of each. Player FOBs →
• 2026-11-02
  An asymmetric AI Commander follows the placement modules synced to it when it recruits: if none of them places AA, it stops recruiting groups with an AA vehicle (one firing air-lock missiles, like the Igla Hilux), and if all of them set Armour or Mechanised to 0, wheeled APCs such as the BTR, BRDM and Marid go too. Guns like the ZU-23 still count as ordinary technicals. OPCOM (Military AI Commander) →
• 2026-11-02
  A Custom Military Objective saved before the faction list existed no longer places CSAT by mistake. Its old OPF_F value now counts as the default, so the AI Commander it is synced to decides the faction. The log says which faction each objective placed and why. Custom Military Placement →
• 2026-11-02
  CQB only reuses the men it remembers for a house when every one of them is of the house's faction, so a CQB set to one faction no longer fills a house with another's men. The log warns when a group comes out on a different side than its faction's. CQB (Close Quarters Battle) →
• 2026-11-02
  Reinforcements: with two AI Commanders on one side, the dialog now lists each AI Commander after the four sides, by the names of its factions. A request for one uses only that commander's factions. Choosing by side works as before. Zeus Modules →
• 2026-11-02
  Angry Crowd: the people not throwing things now wave and shout at the nearest soldier. As some are shot, the others become more likely to run off away from the shooter, and the crowd breaks up. Headless clients are no longer picked as a target. Zeus Modules →
• 2026-11-02
  A Zeus module only keeps a CQB house active while a player is in it, and headless clients no longer count as players. CQB (Close Quarters Battle) →
• 2026-11-02
  Headless clients no longer count as players for civilian clusters and crowds, so civilians stop spawning round a headless client's slot. Ambient Civilian Population →
• 2026-11-02
  Headless clients no longer count as players, so they stop keeping the area round their slot spawned. With Zeus Spawn Virtual Groups on, a Zeus module only keeps its area spawned while a player is in it. Virtualisation & Spawning →
• 2026-11-02
  A Zeus module nobody is using no longer keeps the area round it spawned. It only counts while a player is in the Zeus interface, and a Zeus made by a script or another mod now follows its camera too. Headless clients no longer count as players. Zeus Modules →
• 2026-11-01
  A pooled truck sent home after a helicopter delivery no longer stops the delivery's clean-up with a script error (Type Array, expected Bool). Military Logistics →
• 2026-11-01
  A FOB type's preset= also takes MECHANISED, ARMOURED and AIRFIELD. Player FOBs Types →
• 2026-11-01
  Three more Lists: Mechanised (Infantry plus APCs and IFVs), Armoured (everything but artillery and aircraft) and Airfield (supplies, Defence Stores, trucks, aircraft). In a list's own kinds VEHICLE:APC and VEHICLE:TANK are separate, and ARMOUR still means both. The tablet's Armour folder holds both. Player Resupply →
• 2026-11-01
  Mechanised, Armoured Base and Airfield cards, and the Armour switch is now two: APCs and IFVs, and Tanks. A list saved with the old Armour switch carries it over to both. Build and Supply Catalogue →
• 2026-11-01
  Three more Lists for the hubs: Mechanised (Infantry plus APCs and IFVs), Armoured (everything but artillery and aircraft) and Airfield (supplies, defences, trucks, aircraft). Logistics Hub →
• 2026-11-01
  Toggle View only uses the game's own third person view, and isn't offered where the mission turns third person off. With it off, the camera it used hid the scroll menu, so players couldn't place or cancel. Player FOBs →
• 2026-11-01
  Three more Build List Presets: Mechanised (Infantry plus APCs and IFVs), Armoured Base (everything but artillery and aircraft) and Airfield (aircraft, supplies, trucks and field works). Armour is now 2 kinds: APCs and IFVs, which carry troops, and tanks, which take the rest. Player FOBs →
• 2026-11-01
  A kind of FOB keeps its own extras when Never Build lists them: the class is offered at the kinds that name it and still never at the plain FOB. A static or vehicle keeps its usual price and tier. Player FOBs Types →
• 2026-11-01
  What this page writes to Never Build for the plain FOB no longer cuts the extras your kinds of FOB add. Build and Supply Catalogue →
• 2026-11-01
  A kind of FOB keeps its own extras when Never Build lists them: the class is offered at the kinds that name it and still never at the plain FOB. A static or vehicle keeps its usual price and tier. Player FOBs →
• 2026-11-01
  In Eden Proxy Faction only shows when overriding categories into a new faction. ALiVE Custom Faction Compiler →
• 2026-11-01
  In Eden the collector's threshold and types hide while it's switched off. Garbage Collector →
• 2026-11-01
  In Eden Known Categories hides while Object Categorization is off. Map Indexer →
• 2026-11-01
  In Eden the weather rows show for the climate they fit: real location for Initial, cycle delay and variance otherwise, the debug cycle with debug on. Ambient Dynamic Weather →
• 2026-11-01
  In Eden the nine xStream rows nothing reads are gone, and the client ID greys out unless the camera is enabled. xStream →
• 2026-11-01
  In Eden the autosave interval only shows with a database source that uses it, and the PerfMon code row while PerfMon is on. Persistence →
• 2026-11-01
  In Eden the logistics options and filters hide while logistics is disabled. Player Logistics (Settings) →
• 2026-11-01
  In Eden the logistics source row only shows when logistics is on. Support Artillery →

  In Eden the logistics source row only shows when logistics is on. Close Air Support →
• 2026-11-01
  In Eden the logistics source row only shows when logistics is on. Ground Transport →
• 2026-11-01
  In Eden the recruitment and rally rows that aren't used hide: vehicle classes wait for a vehicle limit, the leader rally rows for Leader Rally, the list rows for List. Group Manager →
• 2026-11-01
  In Eden the respawn settings show only for the Respawn Type that uses them. Player Multispawn →
• 2026-11-01
  In Eden the combat logistics and Logistics Hub rows that aren't used hide, and the allowed player lists grey out until List is ticked. Player Resupply →
• 2026-11-01
  In Eden the FOB supply, kit, troop and limit settings show only for the Supply Source and FOB Limit they fit. Player FOBs →
• 2026-11-01
  In Eden the Outbreak settings only show in an Outbreak mission (Game Mode on ALiVE (Required)), and the pathfinding, air and cache rows wait for their switches. Virtualisation & Spawning →
• 2026-11-01
  In Eden, Place units at Objectives Only hides every unit section, and the asymmetric installation overrides move up into General since the AI Commander reads them either way. Civilian Objective Placement →
• 2026-11-01
  In Eden, Place units at Objectives Only hides every unit section. Custom Civilian Objective →
• 2026-11-01
  In Eden, Place units at Objectives Only hides every section from Force Composition down, since none of it is used; the filters and Random Camps move up under a new Objectives and Camps header. Military Placement →
• 2026-11-01
  In Eden the garrison settings sit under a new Garrison Groups header that only shows with more than one infantry group, and patrol behaviour and speed wait for a building patrol above 0. Custom Military Placement →
• 2026-11-01
  In Eden every Advanced Civilians section on Civilian Population hides while Enable Advanced Civilians is off. Advanced Civilians →
• 2026-11-01
  In Eden the player persistence and tag settings only show when the options above them use them. Player Options →
• 2026-11-01
  In Eden the Civilian Population settings sit under the switches that run them: interaction, crowds, humanitarian aid and each Advanced Civilians section hide while their switch is off. Ambient Civilian Population →
• 2026-11-01
  In Eden the custom skill values only show when a faction is set to use them. Military AI →
• 2026-11-01
  In Eden the C2ISTAR task settings only show once auto-generated tasks are switched on. Task Missions →
• 2026-11-01
  In Eden C2ISTAR shows only the settings for the parts that are switched on: the task, civic, tablet and map marker rows wait until their switch is on. C2ISTAR →
• 2026-11-01
  In Eden the player objective settings on the AI Commander only show for the control types that use them. Player-Directed Objectives →
• 2026-11-01
  In Eden the AI Commander's intel and scouting settings only show for the control types that use them. Find Out Before Attacking →
• 2026-11-01
  In Eden the AI Commander shows only the settings that fit its Control Type: about 66 of its 93 rows are out of the way on a default Invasion commander, with new Assault, Reinforcements and Occupation sections and the asymmetric settings grouped together. OPCOM (Military AI Commander) →
• 2026-11-01
  Eden now hides a module's settings that don't apply to the choices already made, and shows them the moment they do; a section with nothing left in it hides its header too. Addon Options, ALiVE > Eden Editor > Settings that don't apply, can grey them out or show them all instead. ALiVE (Required) →
• 2026-11-01
  The tablet's commander settings can change the stance whenever the ALiVE menu's OPCOM Stance could: Player OPCOM Stance Control on and a C2ISTAR access item or ALiVE tablet carried. The other settings still need Commander's Picture at Read and orders. Operations Command →
• 2026-11-01
  A read-only commander settings page says which C2ISTAR setting stops the change: Commander's Picture, the Ops limit or Commander Controls. Operations Command →
• 2026-11-01
  The Who Can Collect and Who Can Dismantle windows fit: the access item row reads "Players carrying an access item" and every row's tooltip is one line. Logistics Hub →
• 2026-11-01
  The Who Can Dismantle window fits: the access item row reads "Players carrying an access item" and every row's tooltip is one line. Player FOBs →
• 2026-11-01
  The spawn spot check that moves vehicles to a road side or open field no longer moves a static weapon a player built at a FOB. Virtualisation & Spawning →
• 2026-11-01
  While placing a FOB item a Toggle View action on the scroll menu puts the view behind and above the player, so it's easier to see where the item is going. Player FOBs →
• 2026-11-01
  A static weapon built at a FOB now stays exactly where the player put it, instead of being moved up to 100 m to a road side or open field when it spawned. Player FOBs →
• 2026-11-01
  The list report at mission start ("ALiVE Lists: ...") goes to the RPT only; players no longer see it on the map screen. Names not in the game still reach admins as a hint. Player Resupply →
• 2026-11-01
  The Player FOBs list report at mission start goes to the RPT only; players no longer see it on the map screen. An empty build list or names not in the game still reach admins as a hint. Player FOBs →
• 2026-11-01
  A MACC now also counts the airports a terrain declares in its own config, where no indexed runway is within 1.5 km. On Sumava a MACC by Nalzovske Hory bases at the Plasy strip instead of the central airbase. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-11-01

  On a map with no civilians, an asymmetric commander no longer leaves an empty group in each town.

• 2026-10-29

• 2026-10-29
  Zombies hunt civilians and players in civilian slots, which WebKnight's zombies never go for on their own. New Virtual AI settings: Zombie Hunt Range (100 m, 0 turns it off) and Zombie Bite Damage (0.3 a bite). A soldier nearby still comes first, and civilians run. Zombie Outbreak →

ALiVE (Required) →
• 2026-10-29
  New game mode: set Game Mode to Outbreak on ALiVE Required for a zombie outbreak with WebKnight's zombies. Zombie Side picks the zombies' side, which goes to war with every side but civilians; the Virtual AI System takes the zombie factions and their melee damage. Without the mods the mission names what's missing and ends. Zombie Outbreak →
• 2026-10-29
  A group of WebKnight's zombies follows a Runner instead of a slow Walker, so a mixed group moves at a run. Walker-only groups keep their slow pace. Zombie Outbreak →
• 2026-10-29
  New Outbreak section at the bottom of the module, used only when Game Mode is Outbreak: Zombie Factions, Zombie Melee Damage, Zombie Hunt Range, Zombie Bite Damage, Zombie Infection and Zombie Infection Cap (see Zombie Outbreak).

  A Field HQ stays off Altis's dirt airstrips such as the AAC strip. Those strips are built from invisible road pieces, which now count as runway, so compositions keep clear of them; Altis International's runway is unchanged. Custom Military Placement →
• 2026-10-29
  An asymmetric AI Commander given a Faction Compiler faction now recruits that faction's own compiled groups, in its own uniforms. Before, it recruited the groups of the faction it was copied from, or nobody. The RPT now says how many groups each faction can recruit at each tier. OPCOM (Military AI Commander) →

• 2026-10-28
  A preset with a Faction Compiler now brings the template squads synced to its categories: each man's class, place, facing and rank, leader first, so the compiled faction has its groups. A scenario can take a second compiled faction by preset. Squads with vehicles are left out and counted, and kit isn't carried. ALiVE Presets →
• 2026-10-28
  Static guns no longer roll over on low banks such as SOG Khe Sanh's paddy dykes. A gun whose spot isn't level is made on flat ground within 6 m, and one that tips in its first 15 seconds is stood back up. On 36 dykes, 31 guns ended up on their side before and none after. Guns on roofs and flat-topped bunkers stay where they were. CQB (Close Quarters Battle) →
• 2026-10-28

  A CAS plane that starts on the ground at an airfield whose only taxi route is the runway itself, such as Kunduz River's main airfield, now starts on the runway at the nearer end, facing down it, and comes back there when it respawns. Before, it drove cross-country through a fence. Placed 60 m off the Kunduz runway, it was in the air 63 seconds after the call. Airfields with a proper taxi route, and planes already on the runway, are left as they are. Combat Support →
• 2026-10-28
  An "Attacking" circle now goes when the AI Commander drops the attack, for example after losing its attacking groups or when the objective is reset. Before, it could stay on the map, so a map could show more circles than the AI Commander's Max. simultan attacks setting allows. Intelligence →

Player FOBs →
• 2026-10-28
  Start From Ship now works on a large ship that can sail, such as the Naval Legends ships, when no static ship is within 400 m of the module: 40 m long or more, not a submarine, and left where it was placed. Tried on the Sims destroyer and the Essex carrier; from the Essex the landing waves set out about 5 minutes in, 40 seconds apart. OPCOM (Military AI Commander) →
• 2026-10-28
  When Starting IED Threat is ignored because no AI Commander is synced, the RPT now says so, debug on or off, and names what the module is synced to. Before, a module synced to something else dropped the setting without a word. IED →

  The page is now the Build and Supply Catalogue. List for offers the Player Logistics tablet as well as Player FOBs: tick what the tablet may requisition, soldiers and groups included, and copy out its Requisition Only These, Never Requisition and Also Requisition lists.

• 2026-10-27
  New Reinforcements Match the Enemy setting (off by default): half of each reinforcement request still replaces the commander's own losses and half follows the enemy its units saw in the last 30 minutes, so a commander facing tanks asks for armour even if it only lost infantry. It never asks for more than it lost. Needs Military Logistics. OPCOM (Military AI Commander) →

  The commander can fly from a USS Nimitz deck (the Steam Workshop mod) as it does from the USS Freedom. Drop the module on the Nimitz deck: aircraft park there facing the bow, are towed onto one of its 4 catapults and launched, and a jet coming home catches the Nimitz wires and stops on the deck. The FA-18E from the Super Hornet mod launches but doesn't land on the Nimitz yet; it circles. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →

  A tier 3 FOB can build helicopters and planes. A helicopter goes onto the helipad nearest where you aim (within 10 m, with nothing in reach of its rotor); a plane only onto an airfield's taxiway or parking, never a runway or the road past the field. The preview turns red and says why when it can't go. Helicopters cost 300 to 800 and planes 350 to 1000, and an aircraft comes back on the same spot after a restart. Player FOBs →
• 2026-10-25
  With the module's Debug on, opening the map shows every civilian again, virtual ones included. Before, a civilian only got his marker if the map was already open when he spawned, despawned or moved, so mostly the ones near you showed. The markers show in single player or on the host's map.

  The page has an Arsenal tab: the infantry gear of every mod it lists, with the module's prices and the arsenal's own pictures, to tick into Build Only These like anything else. The gear needs the module's FOB Arsenal setting on; with it off, the module now leaves gear in the list aside rather than emptying the Build Menu. Build and Supply Catalogue →
• 2026-10-25
  Gear listed in Build Only These no longer empties the Build Menu when the FOB Arsenal setting is off: the gear is set aside and the menu is built from the rest of the list. With the setting on, the gear goes to the Arsenal, as before. Player FOBs →

• 2026-10-25
  With Build Only These set, a FOB type's extras are still built. One the list doesn't have can only be built at the types that list it, so a Fire Base can have its own tanks while a plain FOB can't. Before, they were dropped unless they were on the list too, and then every FOB could build them. Player FOBs →
• 2026-10-25
  A class in Build Only These can carry its own price, such as Land_HBarrier_5_F=12, so a mission can set prices without a description.ext block. A price that isn't a whole number from 1 to 100000 is ignored and the mission's own price kept. The Build List page writes prices this way. Player FOBs →

  A Supply Convoy no longer delivers to where it set off on a small map. With a Minimum Task Distance no spot on the map can meet, the drop-off ended up within metres of the pickup (18 of 18 on Stratis with 5 km). Now only a spot out at that distance counts; failing that the distance is halved, down to 500 m, and the same convoys run 2.9 to 5.2 km. Default settings are unchanged. C2ISTAR →

  With Drongo's Air Operations loaded, its tablet lists its aircraft again. The MACC kept Drongo's mod off its own planes by putting each plane and its group on the mod's ignore list, but the tablet only expects class names there, so it threw an error and opened empty. The MACC now marks its planes as already seen by the mod instead: the mod still leaves them alone and they stay off its tablet (Eric on Discord). MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-10-25
  A stray fragment no longer sets off a second car bomb. With ACE, one blast threw fragments that touched rigged cars 75 to 150 m away for tiny damage, and each touch set off a full car bomb there. Parked and driven car bombs now ignore a hit under 0.3; a blast within about 50 m still sets them off. IED →
• 2026-10-25
  Players see the callsign set on a Combat Support asset. It was only renamed on the server, so players saw the game's own names like "Alpha 3-6". Players who join later see it too (#1096). Combat Support →

  When no furniture set fits a room, an insurgent installation's own tables and crates now stand on the floor. They used to go in at the building position, which is 24 to 39 cm above the floor in Tanoa houses, so about half of them floated. The worst piece across 81 Tanoa house types now sits 5 cm off the floor (#1097). OPCOM (Military AI Commander) →
• 2026-10-25
  Integration has a new Defer to: IEDD Notebook choice. ALiVE places IEDD's barrels, buckets, canisters and boxes and leaves the rest to IEDD: they wire themselves, go off when a player walks within 10 to 15 m, and are defused with the notebook. A defused one isn't brought back armed when players return to the town. Leaving a town also no longer skips the IED after one that had gone off, which was left standing and placed a second time on the next visit. IED →
• 2026-10-25
  Start From Ship now works on the base game carrier (USS Freedom) and destroyer (USS Liberty). Neither has the helipad points the Expeditionary Forces ship has, so everything was going to start inside the hull. Now it finds flat open deck on its own: 6 spots on the carrier's flight deck, 2 on the destroyer (the stern helideck and the bow). OPCOM (Military AI Commander) →
• 2026-10-24
  Putting down a new squad rally point now always removes the old one, and Rename and Pick Up stay on the new one. Before, every second one lost Rename and Pick Up and was left standing when the next went down, so they piled up. Rally Points →

  The AI Commander can now hand out two kinds of task when its new settings are on: clean-up tasks (remove IEDs, destroy vehicles, or an aid delivery and a meeting with the local leader) round an objective it has just taken, and a wiretap task at an enemy-held objective before it attacks.

  Random Camps are capped: at most twice the military objectives the module places on (never fewer than 25), and no more than 50 on Low, 100 on Medium or 200 on High. A big open map like Chernobyl drew over 900 camps on High; it now gets 32. Above the cap the camps are picked at random, so they still spread across the area. Military Placement →

  A saved campaign no longer gains a "TACOM: NULL profile passed to FSM" line every time it's loaded. A vehicle kept its dead crew's ID through every save; it now lets go when the crew dies, and the AI Commander clears any such ID left in an older save. OPCOM (Military AI Commander) →

  A unit made in a spot boxed in by trees, walls, buildings or a steep slope, with no road nearby, now follows the rough route to its order and its order stays where it was given. The detailed route used to give up there and move the order onto the unit's own spot, so a Logistics convoy made in such a spot let its passengers out and removed its truck where it started, 2 km short; about one request in three on Stratis did this, depending on where the truck was made. From an open spot the route is unchanged. Pathfinding →

• 2026-09-28
  COP Friendly BFT is now Auto, On or Off; on Auto, friendly positions show only at Full and Advanced. Automatic Player Tasks on No stops Constant tasks too, and Strategic tasks come from every faction of the chosen commander. An IED Disposal task whose IED has gone is called off, and unticking every civic family turns them all off. C2ISTAR →
• 2026-09-28
  Garrison groups no longer pile up waypoints as their men search buildings on patrol; one reported mission gathered about 100 an hour. Worth a look in Zeus on a long mission. Military Command (AI Behavior Engine) →
• 2026-09-28
  Minimum and Maximum Ability are no longer shown under Custom Skill Values, as they made no difference to a soldier's skills. A unit that happens to match one of its tier's skills now gets the rest of them too. Military AI →
• 2026-09-28
  Insurgent ambushes now plant their roadside IEDs, which go when the ambush ends, and a retreat takes the town's IED and suicide bomber triggers with it. Escalation intensity counts only how far hostility has risen since the start, with trucks, wheeled APCs and MRAPs in the medium tier, and CQB stops garrisoning a lost insurgent objective. OPCOM (Military AI Commander) →
• 2026-09-28
  Panic Chance now decides who panics at gunfire, and the rest turn alert and watch where the shots came from. With a side's Hostility on High or Extreme, civilians won't surrender to its players at gunpoint and flee instead. Town elders, mayors, priests and civilians a Zeus places stay out of Advanced Civilians, with the orders they can't obey greyed out. Advanced Civilians →
• 2026-09-28
  Panic Chance now decides who panics at gunfire, and a side's Hostility on High or Extreme stops civilians surrendering to its players at gunpoint. With Advanced Civilians off, Talk to Civilian now reaches players who join late. Prefer Buildings on No keeps fleeing civilians outdoors, and a mayor no longer shows as "Major". Ambient Civilian Population →
• 2026-09-28
  A player driving up to an IED now sets it off, and AI Units Trigger IEDs now works, for AI on the players' side or a side friendly to it. With ACE loaded, Integration on Auto uses ACE's IED classes, and VB-IED Side EAST, WEST or IND now rigs parked cars of that side. A town a player starts in gets its IEDs once they've left. IED →
• 2026-09-28
  Free Draw strokes now keep the colour you picked and stop throwing errors partway through. Deleting your last map marker now sticks after a restart; it used to come back. Advanced Markers →
• 2026-09-28
  Military Logistics now starts when it's synced to a placement module or Player Combat Logistics as well as an AI Commander; it used to wait for good. Static reinforcements keep coming with only 1 objective held, or with the commander's reserve task count at 0. Military Logistics →
• 2026-09-28
  A reserve with vehicles now wakes with all of them, each with its own crew, where it used to bring only the first. On 100% a reserve waits for the first group lost instead of waking while the force is whole, and it wakes in the safe building nearest the objective's centre, not the furthest. Custom Military Placement →

• 2026-09-28
  Filter Friendly Factions now narrows the Supply and Reinforce lists to friendly AI Commanders' factions, on a dedicated server too; it used to narrow nothing. With it off, Side mode offers every faction on your side, and the Factions list now reaches players on a dedicated server. Player Resupply →
• 2026-09-28
  An artillery battery that runs out of rounds fires again once it's resupplied, and an Eden-placed mortar team now fires every round. A blank respawn limit means no limit, and a side with no Military Logistics no longer stops everyone's resupply. The artillery Code field now runs on an Eden-placed gun too. Combat Support →
• 2026-09-28
  A house you clear in a sector that isn't fully cleared now stays cleared after a persistent reload. CQB synced to an AI Commander takes its Additional Factions too, so one set up with only those no longer fills houses with CSAT, and On unit spawn code now gets each soldier's faction. CQB (Close Quarters Battle) →
• 2026-09-28
  A Cust. Obj. by the sea now puts its troops on land, and a synced Faction Compiler picks its faction. With Force Factions empty, synced commanders' factions no longer mix enemy sides. Crewed objective objects fight on the module's side, mortars and artillery always start crewed, and On unit spawn code reaches the AA, battery and helicopter crews. Custom Military Placement →
• 2026-09-28
  A synced Faction Compiler now picks the faction, roadblocks are manned by the module's own faction, and crewed objective objects fight on its side. With Force Factions empty, synced commanders' factions no longer mix enemy sides. Patrols start inside the objective, Spec Ops no longer brings aircraft, and mortars and artillery always start crewed. Custom Civilian Objective →
• 2026-09-28
  Roadblocks go up on the roads round an objective's edge again, and they're manned by the module's own faction. Patrols now start inside their objective, a Spec Ops force no longer comes with aircraft, and mortars and artillery always start crewed instead of parked empty in the reserve. Civilian Objective Placement →
• 2026-09-28
  A player who kills a vehicle's crew can now take the vehicle, and Lock empty reserve vehicles is renamed Lock empty force vehicles. Random camps and the Field HQ stay inside the TAOR, patrols start inside their objective, Spec Ops no longer brings aircraft, and mortars and artillery always start crewed. Military Placement →
• 2026-09-28
  Allow player tasking is gone from the Garrison Obj. settings, as no player task ever reached its objective. Its vehicle, crewed or empty, now stays on guard instead of being sent off by the AI Commander. Garrison Objective →
• 2026-09-28
  A utility van is now parked in some towns rather than every one, and never more than 1 in a town. With 4 cars parked in a town, about half the towns get one on Low and nearly all do on High. Ambient Civilian Placement →
• 2026-09-28
  With nothing synced, the Insertion transport now starts over the module instead of near the map's corner, often out at sea. Spawn in Building now uses a building with a single position, and with the respawn vehicle full you respawn beside it. Player Multispawn →
• 2026-09-27
  New faction mode now refuses a Faction ID the game already has, such as BLU_F, with a warning on screen. It used to take that faction over, so every module asking for NATO infantry got your template group. Override categories is the mode for changing a faction that exists. ALiVE Custom Faction Compiler →
• 2026-09-27
  A boat placed in the mission and moved by a player is now put back where it was left after a reload, rather than a second one appearing, and one destroyed in a session stays gone. An object a mission keeps out of Player Logistics now stays where the mission puts it. Player Logistics (Settings) →
• 2026-09-27
  With Advanced Civilians on, the civilian ACE menu hides Follow, Stay, Go Home, Hands Up, Kneel and Get In on civilians it doesn't run, such as town elders, priests and ones placed by Zeus, since they couldn't carry those orders out. ACE Menu →
• 2026-09-27
  Deleting your last spot report now sticks after a restart; it used to come back. SPOTREP →
• 2026-09-27
  Player Options no longer offers Enable or Disable Player Tags while Player Tags is set to None, or Enable Logistics Actions while logistics is switched off; picking them threw an error. The menu also opens cleanly in a mission without Player Persistence. Player Options →
• 2026-09-27
  Deleting your last patrol report now sticks after a restart; it used to come back. On a dedicated server, deleting a report also removes its database record. Patrol Reports →
• 2026-09-27
  Corporals now get the corporal's rank icon on Modern tags; they were showing a general's star. Player Tags (Legacy) →
• 2026-09-27
  Motorised reinforcements now arrive in the number requested. Each motorised group was being built twice while the force pool paid for one, so expect about half as many motorised groups as before. Military Logistics →
• 2026-09-27
  A CAS attack on an area now keeps making passes until the whole radius drawn on the tablet is clear, not just 150 m round the mark. Units of your own or an allied side, and parked civilian cars away from the mark, are left alone. Close Air Support →
• 2026-09-27
  Mortar teams can be picked as the artillery type again. The module builds the side's mortar with its crew and 2 men to carry it, the tablet offers HE, illumination and smoke, and the team fires every round of a mission. Support Artillery →
• 2026-09-27
  A respawned battery keeps its round types and its Allow Repositioning setting. A modded gun used to come back with nothing on the tablet, and every battery lost the setting. Support Artillery →
• 2026-09-27
  With more than one TAOR or Blacklist marker, car bombs now respect all of them. Only the last marker in each list used to count, so a car inside the first TAOR marker was never rigged and one inside the first Blacklist marker could be. IED →
• 2026-09-27
  A CAS attack on an area now keeps making passes until the whole radius drawn on the tablet is clear, not just 150 m round the mark. Units of your own or an allied side, and parked civilian cars away from the mark, are left alone. Combat Support →
• 2026-09-27
  A respawned artillery battery keeps its round types, its Allow Repositioning and its Military Logistics setting, and 2 support assets lost together can no longer both respawn when only 1 respawn is left. Combat Support →
• 2026-09-27
  Mortar teams work as Combat Support artillery again: the battery is the side's mortar with its crew and 2 men to carry it, it fires every round of a mission, and a lost team comes back as the same team. Combat Support →
• 2026-09-27
  Probability 100% now garrisons every house CQB picks. It was coming out as a 1% chance. CQB (Close Quarters Battle) →
• 2026-09-27
  Active foot patrols now start within the guard radius and a quarter again. They were starting up to 5 guard radii out, 1 km from an objective with a 200 m guard radius. Custom Military Placement →
• 2026-09-27
  A disabled insurgent HQ now stops recruiting. Disabling one with the hold action or with Friendly AI disables installations used to leave it producing groups, because it only stopped when the building was destroyed. OPCOM (Military AI Commander) →
• 2026-09-27
  When insurgents give up a town, their recruitment HQ now comes down with the factory and depot, and its marker goes. The houses, walls and roads standing in for their IED spots, ambushes and sabotage targets are left standing, where a retreat used to flatten them. OPCOM (Military AI Commander) →
• 2026-09-27
  The Insurgency and Hearts and minds presets no longer sync their Military IED Threat module to the insurgent commander. That sync did nothing, since a synced IED module only uses Starting IED Threat and both leave it at None; FIA's IED areas and factories only need the module to be in the mission. ALiVE Presets →
• 2026-09-27
  New built-in preset, Combat support: NATO players on the Stratis Air Base get CAS, transport and artillery on call, supplies to order, and reinforcement convoys for their AI commander. Anyone with a radio can call support. ALiVE Presets →
• 2026-09-26
  New built-in preset, Air war: NATO flies from the Altis main airport, CSAT from the sea to the north-east, and they fight over the sea between. Both sides had patrols up within 3 minutes. ALiVE Presets →
• 2026-09-26
  Place Air Assets now gives a base fighters and attack jets in turn, fighter first, so NATO and CSAT bases fly their patrols and interceptions. One old-build test stocked 5 A-164s and every sortie was refused. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-09-26
  Aircraft held at an Ingress Marker are picked the same way: planes and helicopters take turns, and the planes alternate fighter and attack jet. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-09-26
  The Place Air Assets and Ingress Aircraft tooltips now say how many planes a base gets and in what order. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-09-26
  New built-in preset, Hearts and minds: NATO players win over the towns with Hearts and Minds tasks from C2ISTAR, civilians to talk to and aid, and a light FIA insurgency. Works on any map with towns. ALiVE Presets →
• 2026-09-26
  The Insurgency preset's Recruit attempt limit and Asymmetric force cap now arrive as numbers when it's placed from the preset list or the clipboard. ALiVE Presets →
• 2026-09-26
  New built-in preset, Insurgency: FIA hold the towns 3 km north of NATO's forward base, with IEDs, civilians and recruitment HQs that keep recruiting while they stand. Works on any map with towns. ALiVE Presets →
• 2026-09-26
  CQB synced to an insurgency commander guards its recruitment HQs, weapons depots and IED factories again. Since early September none of them got guards, and each one logged a script error. CQB (Close Quarters Battle) →
• 2026-09-26
  New built-in preset, Three-way war: NATO, CSAT and AAF each hold an area and fight each other for the rest. Needs a map the size of Altis or Malden, and Independents Allegiance set to enemy of both. ALiVE Presets →
• 2026-09-26
  Ranks export by name again. A faction exported since late July carries numbers such as "2" for a sergeant; open it here and export it again to fix it. ORBAT Creator →
• 2026-09-26
  Soldiers from ORBAT Creator factions exported since late July now spawn with their proper ranks, without an "Unknown enum value" error in the RPT for each one. Virtualisation & Spawning →
• 2026-09-26
  A script can add an objective to a commander by naming its side or faction again, as the Q&A shows. On dev builds since April that call quietly did nothing. OPCOM (Military AI Commander) →
• 2026-09-26
  New built-in preset, Defensive: NATO holds an area you drop over a base or airfield while CSAT invades from a base 3.4 km north. Works on any map. ALiVE Presets →
• 2026-09-26
  Virtual Combat Speed left at its default now runs at Regular (0.75). Saved empty, as a preset or an unconfirmed module left it, it stopped virtual fights doing any damage; never saved at all, it ran at Quick (1.00). Virtualisation & Spawning →
• 2026-09-26
  New built-in preset, Offensive: NATO attacks from a forward base and takes the ground CSAT holds, 3 objectives at a time with 8 groups to each. Works on any map. ALiVE Presets →
• 2026-09-26
  The Cycle Delay tooltip says what the setting does and no longer claims a 1800 second minimum. Ambient Dynamic Weather →
• 2026-09-26
  Auto Save Interval works now, to within 10 seconds, and blank or 0 turns it off. Its tooltip and Save to Database's now say what they do. Player Options →
• 2026-09-26
  Players are saved every five minutes now, and to the database every Auto Save Interval when ALiVE Data is on Local. No timed save ever ran before. Player Persistence →
• 2026-09-26
  A save waits until a joining player's earlier save has been handed back, so an early drop can't overwrite their record. Player Persistence →
• 2026-09-26
  Saving no longer switches the player's weapon: they stay on an underbarrel launcher. Player Persistence →
• 2026-09-26
  The weather keeps changing all mission now instead of stopping after its first change. With Cycle Delay at 30 seconds, a new change began about once a minute. Ambient Dynamic Weather →
• 2026-09-26
  If Zeus or a script pushes the cloud cover outside the module's range, the next change brings it back inside. Ambient Dynamic Weather →
• 2026-09-26
  Eyes Only now works: a public, faction, group or private report reaches only those players, and comes back for them after a rejoin. Older saved reports keep the old behaviour. SITREP →

  Failing a hearts-and-minds task now turns the town more hostile and costs support, instead of winning it over like a success. Each result counts once. Task Missions →
• 2026-09-25
  Failing a hearts-and-minds task now costs you: the town turns more hostile and loses support. Before, most failures won the town over just as a success did. C2ISTAR →
• 2026-09-25
  Each task result now counts once, so a success gives half what it did, and repeating the same task in one town gives less each time. C2ISTAR →
• 2026-09-25
  Duplicate Task Penalty, the failure multipliers and civic retaliation now take effect. Retaliation only follows a success. C2ISTAR →
• 2026-09-25
  Insurgents now recruit at the Recruit success chance you set. A default mission was getting about a quarter of it, 12.6% instead of 50%, so expect noticeably more insurgent groups. OPCOM (Military AI Commander) →
• 2026-09-25
  Hearts and Minds work still slows recruitment in the towns players win over, and the Civic recruitment multiplier tooltip now explains how, with the civic model on and off. OPCOM (Military AI Commander) →
• 2026-09-25
  A lone insurgent HQ or IED factory now turns its town towards the insurgents twice as fast. OPCOM (Military AI Commander) →

  Fire mission cadence, Rounds per fire mission, Battery ammunition stock and Ignore nearby friendlies now have tooltips that match what they do. AI Commander Artillery →
• 2026-09-25
  Logistics Source's Dynamic choice is now Dynamic (Nearby Objective), since it picks at random from the 2 or 3 nearest objectives your side holds, and its tooltip says so. Close Air Support →
• 2026-09-25
  The two Player Tag Group Colour settings are now called Player Tag Own Group Colour and Player Tag Other Group Colour, so you can tell them apart. Min View Distance, Allow Different Class Rejoin and Store Loadout have tooltips that now match what they do. Player Options →

  Blacklist Units now asks for soldier classnames, which is what it always needed, rather than group classnames. TAOR Marker, the 4 spawn distances and the patrol settings also have tooltips that now match what they do. CQB (Close Quarters Battle) →
• 2026-09-25
  Logistics Source's Dynamic choice is now Dynamic (Nearby Objective), since it picks at random from the 2 or 3 nearest objectives your side holds, and its tooltip says so. Support Artillery →

  Wipe ALL ALiVE Data no longer deletes your saved presets. Persistence →

  The dialog never reads a civilian as calmer than the threat their town is under at the time, so aid in a threatened town won't take the reading below that. Ambient Civilian Population →
• 2026-09-25
  With the module's Debug on, each conversation logs a line starting "ALiVE Civilian Interaction -" with the civilian's own hostility, the town's and what the dialog reads. Ambient Civilian Population →
• 2026-09-24
  Asking a civilian's opinion, or their town's, can no longer irritate them twice in one go, so one question adds at most 10 hostility. Ambient Civilian Population →
• 2026-09-24
  Repeating a question they've already answered now shows any irritation on the hostility indicator straight away, not the next time the dialog opens. Ambient Civilian Population →

  A question a civilian won't answer no longer raises a script error. Ambient Civilian Population →

  A copy of a mission on another map now runs its own campaign. A campaign from an older build moves to whichever copy you launch first, so launch the one you want to keep first. Persistence →

  Clear Current Mission's Data now removes the whole campaign for that map, including the AI forces, objectives, tasks and the air commander's aircraft. Persistence →

  The air commander's save now carries the map, so a copy of the mission on another map starts its own air roster. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →

  A persistent air commander's roster now survives a save and restart; until now every restart rebuilt it from scratch. Worth retesting a persistent commander across a save and restart. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →

  A newly placed ALiVE Data module saves locally by default. Missions already saved with Cloud keep that setting, so check older ones. Persistence →
• 2026-09-24
  With Cloud in singleplayer or a hosted game, Player Logistics, IEDs, markers and reports now start as normal, and an editor preview says nothing will be saved. Persistence →

  Giving aid, or pestering a civilian with questions, now changes their hostility on a dedicated server too, as it already did in single player. Re-open the dialog straight away to see the change. Ambient Civilian Population →

  Leaving one Auto Task Factions slot blank no longer throws away the other five picks, and reopening the module keeps every pick in its own slot. C2ISTAR →

  An Asymmetric commander synced to Military Placement (Cust. Obj.) or (Cust. Civ. Obj.) now uses their objectives, and Asym Installation Overrides on a Cust. Civ. Obj. take effect. OPCOM (Military AI Commander) →

  Assigning a live group to a vehicle by script (ALiVE_fnc_createProfileVehicleAssignment) now puts the men in it. Before, it threw script errors and the vehicle stayed empty. Virtualisation & Spawning →

  A preset you save now goes back to the same spot when you place it on the same map, with no click. Presets saved before today still ask for a click. ALiVE Presets →
• 2026-09-24
  Placing a preset leaves its areas selected along with its modules, so one drag moves the lot. ALiVE Presets →
• 2026-09-24
  Parked aircraft now vanish from their stands while nobody's within the spawn distance, and they're back before you arrive. Watch for an empty stand in view, or an aircraft appearing while you look at it. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-09-24
  The map and Zeus still show a parked aircraft's icon while it's hidden. That's expected: it's hidden and frozen on its stand, not despawned. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-09-23
  A shot-down aircraft now falls and crashes where it was hit, instead of vanishing from the air and reappearing on its stand. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-09-23
  Its wreck stays where it fell, burning, until the Garbage Collector clears it once nobody's within 1.7 km. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-09-23
  An aircraft heading home is only put back on its stand when nobody's within 1 km of it as well as its airfield. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →

  Page corrected: the tour only runs for the player on the machine hosting the mission, so there's no tour on a dedicated server or for anyone joining. The database and WarRoom pages describe services that no longer run. Guided Tour →
• 2026-09-23
  The air commander now flies SEAD. A jet carrying anti-radar missiles is sent at the air defences it has found; no vanilla jet carries them by default, so fit HARMs or Kh-58s in Eden. Watch for low gun passes once the radar is down. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →

  CQB synced to Military Placement (Cust. Obj.) now garrisons that objective instead of nothing anywhere. Anything synced that CQB can't use is named in the RPT and ignored. CQB (Close Quarters Battle) →

  A flex-cuffed, surrendering or unconscious civilian is left alone now instead of getting up and wandering off. Advanced Civilians and ACE were fighting over the same unit. Advanced Civilians →

  Civilians held by ACE, whether cuffed, surrendering or unconscious, are left out of the Advanced Civilians brain until released. Ambient Civilian Population →

  A reinforcement request that can't build a group no longer reports it as delivered. You used to get a confirmed request and a transport that flew out and back with nothing aboard. Military Logistics →
• 2026-09-22
  Requesting groups or vehicles stops coming back as “The forces requested are not available” when your supply point sits on water. Single soldiers were arriving underwater in the same case, and now don’t. Military Logistics →
• 2026-09-22
  An AI Commander module placed over water warns you at startup. That spot is where logistics sends everything from, so it is worth knowing before a mission runs. Military Logistics →

  The map's own header is readable again while you're drawing. The draw mode name was printing on top of it, and the ALiVE panel names the mode anyway. Advanced Markers →

  Drawing in Free Draw mode stops throwing Not a Number errors into the log. Advanced Markers →

  Advanced Civilians no longer announces its debug helper in everyone's chat at mission start. You'll only see it now with Advanced Civilians Debug set to Yes. Advanced Civilians →

  Mark Units markers last 30 seconds and the tooltip now says 30. It claimed 15. Admin Actions →

  The module description stops telling you to place an Admin Actions module. There is none to place; it starts on its own with ALiVE. Admin Actions →

  Deleting your last report sticks. Deleting them one at a time worked until the last, which came back after a restart. SITREP →

  Deleting a report also removes its database record, instead of leaving an unreferenced row behind. SITREP →
• 2026-09-22
  The crew readout is built once instead of twenty times a second, so it should stop looking dim or unsteady while you are in a vehicle. Crew Info →
• 2026-09-22
  The crew list reads the vehicle you are sitting in. Riding in anything other than your assigned vehicle showed the vehicle name with no crew under it. Crew Info →
• 2026-09-22
  The gunner readout no longer leaks grey into the lines below Heading, and the thumbnail only appears when something is under the cursor rather than drawing a broken image. Crew Info →

  A persistent data wipe from the admin menu is recorded in the server log, with who asked for it. The server used to keep no record at all. Persistence →

  Free Draw can be selected. Cycling draw modes with [ stopped at Ellipse and wrapped back to Off, so Free Draw was never reachable. Worth a look: it has never actually been used. Advanced Markers →

  Town elders, majors, muezzins, priests and politicians are left out of the Advanced Civilians brain, as intended. They were all getting the full treatment on top of their own role. Ambient Civilian Population →

  A CAS or artillery classname that does not exist now says so in the log, naming the callsign and the missing class. Before, the callsign appeared in the support menu and simply never produced anything. Transport already behaved this way. Combat Support →
• 2026-09-22
  The start-up warning about a Dynamic Force Pool with a zero reserve task count is gone. The fault it warned about was fixed on 2026-09-17 and following the warning undid a deliberate setting. Military Logistics →
• 2026-09-22
  The Respawn Timeout tooltip says what it does: how long the Insertion transport waits before lifting off. It has no effect on the other spawn types, and now says so. Player Multispawn →
• 2026-09-22
  The relocation tooltip names the Get in Range button, which is what the tablet actually shows. It said Move. Support Artillery →

  This Group Colour reaches Player Tags now. Tags on your own group stayed the built-in cyan whatever you set, because the list of settings copied across stopped one short of it. Player Options →
• 2026-09-22
  Vehicle crew tags show the group again. It worked on foot but never for anyone in a car, tank, helicopter, plane or static. Player Tags (Legacy) →
• 2026-09-22
  Player Tags no longer writes a line to the RPT every time it draws a label for a friendly vehicle. On a busy mission that was a couple of hundred lines a second. Player Tags (Legacy) →
• 2026-09-22
  Filing a spot report in a mission without the tasking module no longer throws an error. SPOTREP →
• 2026-09-22
  Picking Fast (1.50) for virtual unit speed gives you 1.50. It was handing out 1.75, the same as Faster, so virtual groups crossed the map quicker than the label said and 1.50 was the one speed you could not actually select. Virtualisation & Spawning →

  The four view distance and terrain grid boxes now read minimum before maximum. Your existing settings are untouched. Player Options →
• 2026-09-22
  The four view distance and terrain grid boxes on ALiVE Player Options now read minimum before maximum. Yesterday's attempt changed a module that never appears in the editor, so the boxes you actually use are only reordered now. Your settings are untouched. View Settings →

  Groups the Active Limiter can't fit are no longer deleted. They stay virtual and spawn when a slot frees up. Virtualisation & Spawning →

  When more groups are waiting than there's room for, the nearest one to a player goes first. Virtualisation & Spawning →

  The log now gives the number waiting and the limit, instead of reporting groups thrown away. A mission that relied on the limiter thinning it out will now carry its full placed count. Virtualisation & Spawning →

  The terrain detail slider works on any Min Terrain Grid setting. Set that above 1 before and the slider either threw an error or gave a different detail level from the one its label said; only the default of 1 worked. View Settings →
• 2026-09-21
  Nine slider positions used to throw and seven more disagreed with their own label. All of them read correctly now. View Settings →
• 2026-09-21
  Six of the ten minimum and maximum combinations picked a starting detail level and never applied it, so the terrain stayed as it was until you moved the slider yourself. View Settings →
• 2026-09-21
  A ground convoy that can't be built now says so in the log, naming the faction and side whose ground transport is missing, at all three places that build one. Military Logistics →
• 2026-09-21
  Before this, asking for one from a faction with no ground transport gave you no convoy, no error and nothing in Zeus to find. Military Logistics →
• 2026-09-21
  Ticking Enable Debug on the module does something now, so a log you send carries logistics detail. Worth turning on if you're reporting a convoy problem. Military Logistics →
• 2026-09-21
  Neither change delivers a convoy on its own. A convoy that never turned up now leaves a line naming the faction to look at. Military Logistics →
• 2026-09-21
  A preset now names the mods you're missing. Whoever made it writes the name you'd recognise, the Steam id and whether it's an official Creator DLC into the preset itself. ALiVE Presets →
• 2026-09-21
  Mods required shows a missing mod under its real name with a working Workshop button, and the message when a preset loads names the mod rather than an addon nobody can search for. ALiVE Presets →
• 2026-09-21
  Presets carrying a mod record are nine parts and version 3; a plain one is still seven parts and version 1, so nothing older stopped reading. ALiVE Presets →
• 2026-09-21
  Worth testing: share a preset from a scenario using RHS or ACE factions, unload one of those mods, then read the same preset back and check the name and the link are still right. ALiVE Presets →
• 2026-09-21
  Pick a preset and the window now tells you which mods it needs. Mods required opens the full list, one row per mod, anything missing in red at the top, with the modules and factions that want it underneath. ALiVE Presets →
• 2026-09-21
  Each row has a button straight through to the mod's Workshop page; official Creator DLC get their store page instead. ALiVE Presets →
• 2026-09-21
  The old count was wrong: RHS USAF alone comes as a dozen separate addons, so a preset needing six mods reported sixteen. ALiVE Presets →
• 2026-09-21
  It's worked out from the preset itself, so it answers for one somebody pasted into Discord as well as one you made. A mod you don't have loaded still shows under its recorded name, with a working link out to its Workshop or store page. ALiVE Presets →
• 2026-09-21
  The ALiVE menu opens on the key you bound it to, including combinations with Shift, Ctrl or Alt. Adding a second key rather than replacing the first one works too. Player Options →
• 2026-09-21
  New Submit online button in the preset window opens this page and copies the preset to your clipboard; paste it into the box and the title, description and your handle fill themselves in. Presets that ship with ALiVE don't get the button. Submit a Preset →
• 2026-09-21
  A preset now remembers where its modules sat, so a Custom Objective or Fixed Placement lands where you put it. Keeping the layout is the default and can be turned off. A preset also carries a title, author and date. ALiVE Presets →
• 2026-09-20
  A preset you send can now carry the map areas it uses, and you pick what goes into it first. In the editor, select a module, then right click and choose ALiVE, then Share as Preset, then untick whatever shouldn't travel. Submit a Preset →
• 2026-09-20
  You now choose what a preset takes: a row per ALiVE module and a row per area, ticked one by one, when you share one. ALiVE Presets →
• 2026-09-20
  The same list appears when you place a preset, so you can take part of somebody else's rather than all of it. ALiVE Presets →
• 2026-09-20
  Presets carry map areas now, so a TAOR travels with the setup that points at it. Areas land where you click and keep their sizes and spacing; a name already taken comes in under a new one with the settings corrected. ALiVE Presets →
• 2026-09-20
  ALiVE Required and the Virtual AI System always travel, because a preset without them places cleanly and then does nothing. ALiVE Presets →
• 2026-09-19
  Place Drones works on its own now: with Place Air Assets off you still get the drone, and a base that already has one never gets a second. A Blackfish comes back on the exact spot it was parked on instead of drifting. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-09-19
  Oberlausitz, Drakovac and Avdiivka are in, all three submitted by KristyWV, so the modules go straight onto any of them without indexing the map first. Each index covers its whole map and uses the Woodland set of compositions. Submit a Terrain →
• 2026-09-19
  Every page now has a menu and a search box along the top. The menu lists every page by group, with the sections of the page you are on under it. The search looks through the text of every page, the ledger included, so a module, a terrain, a setting or a word from a changelog finds the page it is on, and choosing a result opens that page at the place the words were found. Press / on any page to start typing.

  Jets take off down the runway instead of driving along the ground toward their target, and they wait on their stand while the way out is blocked. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →

  VTOLs come home to their own stand and land on it in VTOL mode, staying off the runway. A plane that touches down stays down instead of taking off again. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →

  A sortie whose target dies on the way turns back, and one whose target is already dead stands down on its stand. Crews leave parked aircraft with the engine off, and a serviced aircraft goes out with a full tank. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →

• 2026-09-19
  Helicopters land on their pad instead of circling it, and a plane isn't dropped from the air by its landing deadline. A job with no suitable aircraft waits for one: the A-10 is no longer picked as a fighter, and the Blackfish only scouts. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-09-19
  A landed aircraft is never moved while anyone, Zeus cameras included, is within a kilometre, and nothing is put down on top of a vehicle. Drongo's Air Operations no longer takes over the commander's aircraft. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-09-18
  Helicopters look across the whole airfield for a free pad, and nothing parks with a building wall inside its reach. A launch is called off for an aircraft that can't fly, which is put back and repaired while another takes the job. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-09-18
  Every landing is serviced now, not just an aircraft's first, and the supply truck gets three minutes to reach it instead of as little as 27 seconds. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-09-18
  A supply truck now gets at least two minutes to reach its target, so short deliveries stop timing out. The ETA on the support radio for a short run across an airfield reads 2:00 instead of 0:27. Military Logistics →
• 2026-09-18
  A landed jet taxis off the runway before it goes back to its stand. A Blackfish or other VTOL doesn't take the runway at all: it lands straight onto its own stand. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-09-18
  Anything up to 120 metres ahead of a launching jet is moved aside, so a van on the taxiway no longer keeps it on the ground. In testing a Bradley and two MRAPs were shifted about 70 metres and both jets took off. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-09-18
  Helicopters no longer wait for the runway in either direction. One that couldn't get down used to hold the runway through five minutes of hovering while a jet behind it ran out of time. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-09-18
  Patrols stay on station instead of turning for home seconds after arriving, and a crew that's been stood down can't climb back aboard and fly off. That's how a gunship lost its pilot at 104 metres and crashed. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-09-18
  Jets taxi out to the runway themselves rather than stalling in a hangar doorway. Five jets launched this way were airborne 67 to 100 seconds later, and a jet waiting its turn is held on its stand so it can't creep forward. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-09-18
  Groups sent out on an order the commander then drops now come straight back to it. They used to keep walking to an abandoned objective, unavailable for up to an hour. OPCOM (Military AI Commander) →
• 2026-09-18
  Asking the air commander for a recce no longer throws a script error. Recce itself always worked; the error just landed once per request. OPCOM (Military AI Commander) →
• 2026-09-18
  With Friendly Coverage switched on, system chat no longer fills with "creating debug markers". The friendly markers themselves are unchanged. C2ISTAR →
• 2026-09-18
  The Enable Debug option works, and it no longer starts switched on. Choosing Yes used to do nothing. xStream →
• 2026-09-18
  Enable Debug starts off. Placing the module used to turn debug output on without anyone choosing it. Setting the option to Yes still works. Guided Tour →
• 2026-09-18
  The Enable Debug option no longer has any effect: the module now reads a different value than before, one nothing sets, so its RPT output stays off no matter what you choose. Crew Info →
• 2026-09-18
  Enable Debug now starts off on the legacy Military Intelligence module. The option reported Yes as its default, but that module is hidden from the editor and its init exits immediately, so this setting had no effect either way. Intelligence →
• 2026-09-18
  Enable Debug still doesn't work. Debug output stays off whatever you pick on the ALiVE Player Options module, and this change is what closed the last path that reached the tags. The player's own group colour can't be set from Player Options either. Player Tags (Legacy) →
• 2026-09-18
  The Enable Debug option works. Choosing Yes did nothing at all, with no sign of why. The skill values the module works out for each faction now appear in the log. Military AI →

  The MACC briefing is now a full module page, built like every other module in the collection, with its roadmap of planned work included. The old address still sends you here. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →

  An objective you direct the commander to take now actually gets taken. Nothing you pointed it at had started since 31 August, so if you set an objective on a development build over the last few weeks and nothing moved, this is why. Player-Directed Objectives →
• 2026-09-18
  The AI Commander tasks its forces again. Since 31 August nothing it ordered was ever carried out: orders timed out after 10 seconds and went straight out again, on every objective. OPCOM (Military AI Commander) →

  The repeat hit attack, defend and reserve orders alike, with no limit, for as long as the mission ran. That's why commanders looked idle on recent development builds. OPCOM (Military AI Commander) →

  The tactical side's check for a stale order works again too. OPCOM (Military AI Commander) →

  A wreck on a parking spot no longer sends the arriving aircraft somewhere else: it waits for the spot, and the log names what's holding it. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-09-17
  Combat air patrol and defensive counter-air go to fixed wing only, so no more gunships loitering over the airbase. Helicopters still fly close air support and reconnaissance. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-09-17
  Planes park in the hangars again, with a fit test so an airframe too big for the bay stays out. Every aircraft also parks at its own airfield instead of being sent hundreds of metres away. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →

  When the AI group cap is full, the next group due to spawn is thrown away rather than held back for later, along with any vehicle it was commanding. Virtualisation & Spawning →

  The log now says so, naming the limit and counting what was lost, so missing units no longer look as though they were never placed. Virtualisation & Spawning →

  That message appears once every 10 seconds rather than once per group. Virtualisation & Spawning →

  A Dynamic force pool now counts the ground your commander holds, not only the ground it has put a garrison on, so setting the reserve task count to 0 no longer empties it. Military Logistics →
• 2026-09-17
  The pool runs a little larger on missions that already worked, because quiet ground with nobody sent to it now counts. Worth an eye on if reinforcement volume matters to you. Military Logistics →
• 2026-09-17
  With Enable Debug on, the log now reports the pool, how many objectives counted as held and their priority total. Military Logistics →

  ALIVE_profileIgnore now keeps a group out of the Virtual AI System at mission start too, not just during a mission. Virtualisation & Spawning →

  Every player gets the access item the mission chose, not just the host. Access Item Categories decides what you have to be carrying to open the tablet. C2ISTAR →
• 2026-09-16
  On a dedicated server everyone but the host quietly fell back to the Laser Designators default, so a mission asking for radios or binoculars had its choice ignored. In game it read as only the host having a tablet. C2ISTAR →

  Combat Support had the same fault and was fixed earlier; the tablet is now in line with it. C2ISTAR →

  Units that arrive missing a field are simulated again instead of erroring. On a shortened unit that's 347 errors in 40 seconds before, none after. Virtualisation & Spawning →

  A tester hit this on a load after a scheduled server restart. Virtualisation & Spawning →

  The C2ISTAR entry now appears for whatever access item you set on the module. On ACE it only ever showed up if you happened to be carrying the old ALiVE tablet, and the default of Laser Designators never matched. ACE Menu →
• 2026-09-16
  With everything under it reading as unavailable, ACE hid the entry altogether, so a tester on the dev build had a Resupply menu and no C2ISTAR menu at all. ACE Menu →

  The Custom Access Items field now accepts a comma separated list. Before, only a single classname worked, and that was by accident. ACE Menu →

  A commander whose airfield is overrun stops rebuilding aircraft into the enemy position. It used to rebuild them there for the rest of the mission, spending the logistics pool with them. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →

  The aircraft stays on the books instead, and is replaced once the ground is clear. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →

  An airfield reports who holds it at the point it becomes an objective for the ground commanders. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-09-16
  A commander can still base on an enemy-held field in the first place, because a base is chosen long before anyone can know who holds it. The log says so and names the setting to reach for. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-09-16
  The runway check every module shares now knows where the runway actually is. Worth a look if you see an aircraft placed somewhere on an airfield it has no business being. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-09-16
  Convoys now keep off runways, and a group with one blocked approach no longer strands itself. Routes are supposed to treat a runway as ground to stay off, and until today they did not: the runway line was guessed from an instrument approach point and a fixed length rather than measured, and on Stratis it ran off the end of the field and out to sea, so nothing along the real runway was recognised and routes crossed it freely. It is fitted through the runway itself now. Separately, a destination reachable several ways was written off as soon as one of those ways was refused, so the group stayed put instead of coming round another side; it now gives up only after every approach has been tried. A third round of route-generation optimisation came with those, a substantial reworking rather than a tidy-up, so both speed and route quality are worth a look on busy airfields and complex coastlines. Pathfinding →
• 2026-09-16
  Whether your own side holds an airfield is measured across the whole airfield, which can run 700 m across, rather than a 300 m circle, so an enemy-held field no longer reports as yours. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-09-16
  A small objective still asks across 300 m as a floor, and the log names the distance it used. With four hostiles standing 500 m out, the same objective answers held at 300 m and not held at 700 m. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-09-16
  The ground commander actually goes and takes the airfield, instead of leaving it a target on paper. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →

  A persistent campaign no longer stacks up an extra objective and capture task on the same ground with every reload; it reuses the one already there. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-09-16
  Worth knowing the airfield now sits ahead of other unassigned targets, so the commander will go after the field before things it might otherwise have picked. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →

  The same ground may already be an objective under a different name, with its centre some way off: 249 m on Stratis. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →

  A commander flying from an ingress marker creates its aircraft whatever Place Air Assets is set to. Naming a marker on a fresh mission used to leave you with no aircraft and a radio call saying the airbase wasn't established. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →

  The advice printed when a commander ends up with no aircraft no longer sends you hunting through airspace markers for a commander that has no airfield. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →

  A marker commander reloaded from a save no longer holds one more aircraft than Ingress Aircraft asked for. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →

  Helicopter insertion now works on a mission with a friendly second faction. An allied garrison no longer reads as an enemy one, so the position isn't reported lost for the rest of the mission. Military Logistics →

  Reinforcement requests used to wait about half an hour and then quietly fall back to a ground convoy, every time. Military Logistics →
• 2026-09-15
  A landing zone an ally is standing on now counts as clear, instead of forcing a parachute drop onto it. Military Logistics →
• 2026-09-15
  The choice of which objective to reinforce counts allies properly too: a position an ally already held, with fewer than three of them on it, used to look like the emptiest place to send men. Military Logistics →
• 2026-09-15
  The commander map now marks an objective an allied faction holds. On missions with a friendly second faction those objectives were left unmarked. C2ISTAR →
• 2026-09-15
  Worth knowing if you build invasion missions: the air commander doesn't ask who holds an airfield. It takes the nearest usable one inside its airspace, and will build its headquarters there, post guards and fly from it. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-09-15
  The controls are yours: the airspace marker decides which airfields are eligible, the module's own position decides which of those wins because the nearest is taken, and naming an Ingress Marker gives the commander a point to fly from instead. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-09-15
  Where the enemy has a drawn TAOR over the field it takes, the log names the faction and tells you which of those to reach for. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-09-15
  This page has been corrected against the code. Suppression of enemy air defences isn't delivered: they're found and recorded, but nothing is sent against them, and the player task needs the C2ISTAR module, Generate Player Tasks and Generate SEAD Tasks all switched on together. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-09-15
  Place Air Assets is off by default, so a commander placed on an empty airfield adds no aircraft of its own and flies only what's already in your mission. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-09-15
  Nothing taxis: an aircraft is launched from its stand and set back down on it, and with nobody within a kilometre it's put onto its stand from the air. A plane that fits nowhere isn't swapped for a VTOL. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →

  The servicing truck comes from a Logistics Commander, and without one an aircraft is serviced where it stands. Drone placement needs two settings rather than one, and the default sortie clock is twenty five minutes, not an hour. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-09-14
  The air commander has been rebuilt end to end, and the rebuild is what's in your build now. A sortie can no longer be sent to where an aircraft is not: what each one is doing is measured from the aircraft itself every few seconds. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-09-14
  An aircraft flies a whole sortie on its own, from a crew scrambling aboard to the airframe parked back on its own stand with its crew deleted straight from their seats, and it comes home when its fuel, its bombs, its targets or its time run out. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-09-14
  An aircraft out of bombs is recognised as empty, and a sortie holding over targets somebody else has already destroyed comes home instead of circling out its clock, twenty five minutes by default. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-09-14
  A returned aircraft is rearmed as well as refuelled, by a support truck that drives out to where it parked. Nothing is parked on a runway, and a commander covering two factions keeps its whole fleet across a save. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-09-14
  Air support works on a terrain with no airstrip: draw a marker, name it in the module's airfield overrides, and the commander flies its aircraft from there. A loss is replaced within seconds. Aircraft can also be based on a carrier deck, helicopters included. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →

  Close quarters combat is cheaper to run, lets go of buildings sooner, and a garrison no longer loses track of its own patrol. Watch for buildings releasing as you move away rather than staying live behind you. CQB (Close Quarters Battle) →

  The garrison order now reads Garrisoned Building Patrol off the placement modules when the caller doesn't supply it.

  Reach is still 200 metres from the centre, so on a very large objective the outermost buildings stay empty. The whole-objective search on the Military Placement page applies to garrisons a placement module puts down, not to these. OPCOM (Military AI Commander) →

  Garrisoned Infantry Radius now sets the smallest area a garrison searches, not the whole of it. Guards scattered across a big camp reach the buildings in the middle instead of standing in the open. Objectives smaller than the radius behave as before. Custom Military Placement →

  Town garrisons now search the whole objective they hold. On Khe Sanh a group 466 metres from the centre of a 656 metre objective seated all twelve men; the old 200 metre reach found none. Garrisoned Infantry Radius now sets the smallest area searched. Civilian Objective Placement →
• 2026-09-03
  Garrisons now search the whole objective instead of a circle around wherever each group landed, so a group dropped on the far side of a large airfield stops standing in the open. Garrisoned Infantry Radius is now the smallest area searched, not the only one. Military Placement →

  The Class Picker can now collect buildings to blacklist against garrisons. Look at one and press Delete: it turns red, the monitor lists it, and coming back to the editor writes it into every synced module's Garrison Building Blacklist. Class Picker →

  The right click menu carries the same option, and ALiVE, Apply Picked Blacklist writes the collected list in by hand if you need it. Class Picker →
• 2026-09-02
  Delete keeps its own list, separate from the Home picks, so a session that collects both writes each to its own setting. Unlike Home, Delete accepts a building with nowhere to stand inside it. Props with no positions are the ones worth excluding. Class Picker →

  Capture orders point at the objective the commander actually picked, and it now looks for defenders across the objective's own size, between 200m and 500m, instead of a flat 300m. On a large objective it used to find nobody and drop the order. OPCOM (Military AI Commander) →

  ALiVE now reads in Spanish throughout. The 2780 remaining untranslated strings were filled in across all 67 stringtables, taking the mod from partial to full Spanish coverage, so module names, Eden settings, notifications, radio messages and composition labels all show in Spanish on a Spanish install instead of falling back to English. Terminology follows what the existing Spanish entries already used, and names the community identifies in English are left alone: H-Barrier, HQ, LZ and the side tags. This is machine translation with no native-speaker review yet, so corrections from Spanish-speaking testers are welcome.

  Missions on maps with airfields start faster: about 160 seconds off the wait on a Khe Sanh dedicated server. That's a different mission from the Cam Lao Nam figures above, so don't add the two savings together. Startup Screen →

  Missions on maps with airfields start faster: about 160 seconds off startup on a Khe Sanh dedicated server. Watch for ground compositions among the hangars of an airstrip the game doesn't recognise as an airfield; runways stay clear either way. Military Placement →
• 2026-08-18
  Helicopters returning from a task no longer shuffle sideways and spin on the spot as they land. One that sets itself down within thirty metres of its own slot is left exactly where it landed. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-08-18
  A new per-object setting stops a saved object being moved onto a nearby one of the same type when the mission loads. Objects carrying it are put back where they were placed; anything without it loads exactly as before. Player Logistics (Settings) →
• 2026-08-18
  Closing the game or timing out now saves your state; a real drop used to save nothing, leaving you up to a full save interval stale. A state you wouldn't want kept, dead or downed, is left alone so the last good save stands. Player Persistence →
• 2026-08-18
  Tasks no longer stop being handed out for the rest of a mission, with every task frozen at whatever stage it had reached. C2ISTAR →
• 2026-08-18
  A sabotage task not completing when the target comes down was fixed the next day, see the entry above. Setting ALiVE_c2istar_taskDiag to true records what the server sees of each target, worth turning on if you hit anything like it again. Task Missions →

  Asking a civilian how their town feels now answers about their town. You could be told the mood of a town on the far side of the map; the nearest one wins now. Ambient Civilian Population →

  Asking a civilian how their town feels now answers about their town, not one on the far side of the map. There's more on the Civilian Population page. Advanced Civilians →
• 2026-08-18
  Renaming a custom unit no longer breaks the ones built from it. Removing a unit has always handed its children back to its own parent; renaming one now does the same. ORBAT Creator →
• 2026-08-18
  A faction added to the module since your last save now gets its logistics allowance, so requests for it stop being turned down. Saved figures still win wherever the save knows the faction. Military Logistics →
• 2026-08-18
  The guided tour no longer hangs partway through, leaving you hidden and moved. Guided Tour →

  Exporting units no longer comes back with nothing after you rename a custom unit. ORBAT Creator →

  A player who drops before their first save no longer breaks their own next connect. Player Persistence →
• 2026-08-18
  Requesting a group resupply now works for every faction in the list. Before, most of them were dropped without acknowledgement and nothing arrived. Player Resupply →
• 2026-08-18
  Talking to a civilian in a town nobody has spawned into yet no longer leaves you stuck on Loading with no questions, gear list or hostility reading. Ambient Civilian Population →
• 2026-08-18
  A runway you draw on the module is now known to the rest of the mod, not just the air side, so clearing an airfield, routing a convoy around one and placing aircraft all see it. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-08-18
  A logistics request for a faction added to the module since your last save is no longer dropped in silence. Military Logistics →
• 2026-08-18
  Asking the commander for a different order no longer risks tasks drying up for the rest of the mission. C2ISTAR →

• 2026-08-18
  More checkpoints actually appear: one unusable spot no longer ends the search, so the other spots near a town get their turn. A town with good roads used to hand back nothing and retry once a second. Civilian Objective Placement →
• 2026-08-18
  A script error no longer appears on screen the first time aircraft use an airfield, and the sortie no longer stops there. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-08-17
  Roadblocks now turn up at checkpoints that never got one. A place with no road nearby is remembered after the first look, so the queue gets on to the ones that can work. Civilian Objective Placement →
• 2026-08-17
  A no-road spot used to be tried again once a second by every civilian placement module, for as long as anyone was in range. Civilian Objective Placement →
• 2026-08-17
  On one Khe Sanh test that came to 7,886 refusals and not one roadblock placed in over an hour; the same test now refuses twice and places two. Civilian Objective Placement →
• 2026-08-17
  Dedicated startup is much quicker: 536 seconds down to 347 on a Cam Lao Nam dedicated server, waiting at the briefing map throughout. Repeat runs of the same build vary by about forty seconds, so smaller differences than that don't mean anything. Startup Screen →
• 2026-08-17
  Missions that place random camps start far faster. On a Cam Lao Nam dedicated server that stage went from 199 seconds to 83, and the whole of ALiVE startup from about 490 to 347. The same camps come out of it. Military Placement →
• 2026-08-16
  Missions set themselves up faster. The airfield survey, the widest sweep ALiVE does, no longer repeats itself for every position ALiVE tries to build on. Startup Screen →
• 2026-08-16
  A cluster that sits wholly inside an airfield skips its first search pass there, instead of trying six hundred and sixty-seven positions and being refused every one. The wider retry that follows still runs if it's needed. Startup Screen →
• 2026-08-16
  Measured on a Cam Lao Nam dedicated server, holding at the briefing map throughout. Treat it as a modest improvement rather than a figure: repeat runs of the same build vary by about forty seconds, wider than the change itself. Startup Screen →

  Parked aircraft face along the runway instead of all pointing north. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-08-16
  That affected very nearly every field on very nearly every mission; only fields marked up by hand in the editor pointed the right way. The heading comes from the terrain's own approach data where it has any. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-08-16
  On a dedicated server the screen now tells you what it's waiting for. It used to say only "Getting started" from beginning to end, and name "something that did not give its name" if it gave up. Startup Screen →
• 2026-08-16
  The running commentary and any warnings now appear too; on a dedicated server everything but the bar used to be blank. Where a mission carries several of the same module, the number still going is shown beside the name. Startup Screen →
• 2026-08-16
  The screen no longer calls a healthy mission failed. It used to come down after fifteen minutes however well the work was going; fifteen minutes now means fifteen minutes with nothing happening. Startup Screen →
• 2026-08-16
  A machine that was never told anything gets different wording from one that watched the work stop. Expect warnings here that a dedicated server never showed you before; they were always happening. Startup Screen →
• 2026-08-16
  The air commander waits fifteen minutes for the AI Commander instead of two, matching the span the loading screen allows. On a dedicated server, a large mission used to abandon its commander on every single run and warn about it every time. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-08-16
  Worth knowing this is a change in behaviour and not just a quieter log: on a big mission the air side will genuinely wait, where before it went ahead detached from the commander it exists to serve. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-08-16
  The areas you mark off limits to close quarters combat now go out of sight before the briefing map is drawn. On Cam Lao Nam they were waiting 78 seconds, so the map looked the same whenever a player could next open it. CQB (Close Quarters Battle) →
• 2026-08-16
  The infantry group name you type into a Garrison Objective module now works for 23 more factions, among them Gendarmerie, Guerilla and the whole Prairie Fire set. Typing one placed nothing at all for those; vehicles were never affected. Garrison Objective →
• 2026-08-16
  A decoy no longer reaches further out than real intel does. Asking a hostile population for intel puts down 2 to 4 decoys worded like the truth; they used to scatter up to 2800 m when a truthful reveal only reaches 2000 m. Advanced Civilians →
• 2026-08-16
  Decoy intel markers no longer reach further out than real ones. Where the population is hostile you can get 2 to 4 decoys, and any past 2000 m used to be a giveaway. A marker inside 800 m is still always real. Ambient Civilian Population →
• 2026-08-16
  The AI Commander's faction warning stops going off on every mission. It used to name every faction you'd set as unmatched and tell you to correct three things that were already right. OPCOM (Military AI Commander) →
• 2026-08-16
  Which faction you picked never mattered, so it hit stock ALiVE and modded factions alike. The check worked when it was added on 20 April, broke five days later and had caught nothing since. OPCOM (Military AI Commander) →
• 2026-08-16
  A mission that really is misconfigured warns again, and after four months of silence that'll look like a new warning. OPCOM (Military AI Commander) →
• 2026-08-16
  On Constant task generation, tasks now keep coming after one ends. Finishing or cancelling the first task used to stop any further tasks for the rest of the mission. Task Missions →

  The areas you draw for a module no longer stay painted across your map when you host. Single player and listen-server hosts saw them all mission; players on a dedicated server never did. Ambient Civilian Placement →

  The areas you draw for a module no longer stay painted across your map when you host. Dedicated-server players were always fine; single player and listen-server hosts saw them for the whole mission. Civilian Objective Placement →

  The rectangles you draw for a module no longer stay painted across your map when you host. They only ever hid on machines that weren't the server. Military Placement →
• 2026-08-15
  Taking a faction off the AI Commander's list now sticks; a removed BLUFOR used to come back ticked. The field beneath is renamed Additional Factions, since it adds to your selection rather than replacing it. Needs a rebuilt copy of the mod. OPCOM (Military AI Commander) →
• 2026-08-15
  The module description no longer tells you to type custom factions into a text box that isn't there. Custom factions reach these modules by syncing a Custom Faction Compiler, and the wording now says so in all seven languages. Custom Military Placement →
• 2026-08-15
  Override Categories mode now places the groups you gave it, instead of the faction's own stock groups. Categories you haven't overridden still use the faction's groups. With the New Faction fix, both modes now place what you asked for. ALiVE Custom Faction Compiler →
• 2026-08-15
  New Faction mode now places its groups, and they get orders, objective membership and counting. Broken since the module arrived, so a mission that gave up on it is worth revisiting. The log now names any group that matches nothing. ALiVE Custom Faction Compiler →
• 2026-08-15
  Groups from a faction built with the Custom Faction Compiler now reach whoever asked for them; they never did, in any mission, since the compiler arrived four months ago. What it looked like: units that exist but take no patrol or garrison orders. Virtualisation & Spawning →
• 2026-08-15
  Asking for a different order no longer costs you the one you had. If nothing can be found to replace it, you're told your current order stands. C2ISTAR →
• 2026-08-15
  A reroll that finds nothing now leaves the group with the order it had. Before, asking for a different order could leave a group holding nothing at all. Task Missions →
• 2026-08-15
  Turning down a request no longer hands you an order anyway, and you're offered the nearest free objective rather than the furthest. A new setting decides how many requests must pass before the same kind of order can come back, two by default. C2ISTAR →
• 2026-08-15
  New setting for how long the commander must wait before repeating a kind of order. Reports had six of the same kind in a row; two requests must now pass before one repeats. Zero turns the wait off. Task Missions →
• 2026-08-15
  Asking for a different order when a group can't have one no longer hands one over anyway. It was hard to spot because the tablet greys the entry out while a group holds a task. Task Missions →
• 2026-08-15
  The commander offers the nearest free objective again rather than the furthest. Asking for a different order had been sending groups steadily further out, five to eight kilometres away while nearer objectives sat free. Task Missions →
• 2026-08-15
  The areas you mark off limits to close quarters combat now go out of sight as the module starts, rather than after the server has finished building the mission. They'd begun disappearing while the briefing map was still on screen. CQB (Close Quarters Battle) →
• 2026-08-15
  The screen now gives up after fifteen minutes instead of half an hour and names what it was still waiting on. It says plainly that parts of the mission may not be set up, and the modules carry on behind it. Startup Screen →
• 2026-08-15
  An infantry group name that matches nothing is now reported instead of failing quietly. It names the setting to correct and shows on the startup screen as well as in the log. Garrison Objective →
• 2026-08-15
  You can now choose which arsenal edits unit loadouts. A new Arsenal Type setting offers the game's Virtual Arsenal or ACE's, falling back to the game's if ACE's can't open. Needs a rebuilt copy of the mod. ORBAT Creator →
• 2026-08-15
  IED factories that spawn empty with no way to disable them are fixed. A building already carrying an insurgent installation is no longer offered for another. Nine factories across three runs all worked as they should. OPCOM (Military AI Commander) →
• 2026-08-15
  Setting up IEDs is much quicker and the debug circles no longer flicker. On a large Vietnam mission the module fell from 160 seconds to 1.5, and ALiVE startup from 376 to 306. Worth reporting any IED area with no circle with debug on. IED →
• 2026-08-15
  Helicopters stop going missing from helipad nodes where the ground is tight. A large Vietnam mission was losing a quarter to a third of them; the wider search recovered 11 in testing. Worth reporting any airbase still emptier than you placed it. Military Placement →
• 2026-08-14
  The screen now names what's actually holding startup up. It used to sit at 92 per cent naming Player Options while the Air Component Commander ran for seventy seconds. Worth reporting any point where the named module and the log disagree. Startup Screen →
• 2026-08-14
  Requesting an order from the commander is more reliable; groups that should have been eligible were all being treated as busy. Worth reporting any request that still comes back with nothing. C2ISTAR →
• 2026-08-14
  Handing out an order no longer fails partway through on a dedicated server. Seen while a sabotage order was being handed out. Task Missions →
• 2026-08-14
  Added a Startup Screen page: ALiVE now shows what it is doing during the wait while a mission sets itself up, instead of a black screen that reads as a crash.
• 2026-08-14
  Setting up close quarters battle is much quicker. On a large Vietnam terrain the building sort went from 190 seconds to 50, and the module now finishes in around 70. Report any area that used to have a CQB presence and now has none. CQB (Close Quarters Battle) →
• 2026-08-14
  A new Automatic Player Tasks setting stops everything arriving unprompted: no rescues, air taskings, counter battery, convoy protection or commander orders. The commander menu can switch it mid-mission, and orders you ask for from the tablet still work with it off. C2ISTAR →
• 2026-08-14
  Every task on this page can now be switched off in one place. Set Automatic Player Tasks to No on the C2ISTAR module and nothing here arrives unless you ask for it from the tablet. Worth reporting any task that still turns up unasked. Task Missions →
• 2026-08-14
  Profiles were moving without a route. They now get the route they were meant to have. Worth reporting any group that still moves in a straight line through terrain it should be going around. Virtualisation & Spawning →
• 2026-08-14
  Pausing a module no longer switches its debug output on and leaves it on, which happened every time the last player left a server. Civilian population also records its paused state now, so asking whether it's paused gives a real answer. Ambient Civilian Population →
• 2026-08-14
  A group opted out of automatic orders no longer gets the counter battery task when enemy guns shell it, and no task is raised when nobody on the side is being shelled. AI Commander Artillery →
• 2026-08-14
  The Run once per group setting now takes effect. It was being overwritten with its own default, so it could never take. Garrison Objective →
• 2026-08-14
  Mehland is in, submitted by MrCovin and added on 10 August 2026, so the modules drop straight onto it. MrCovin notes some objects aren't categorised ideally, so placement may be rougher than on a hand tuned map. First community terrain through this page. Submit a Terrain →

  Artillery batteries place far more cheaply, and the guns come out spread across the ground rather than sitting on rings. Measured on a battery of eight: one ground search per gun, down from up to thirty six. Custom Military Placement →

  Artillery batteries place far more cheaply: a battery of eight now costs eight ground searches instead of up to thirty six per gun. Guns also come out spread across the ground rather than sitting on rings. Custom Civilian Objective →

  A group opted out of automatic orders no longer receives convoy protection tasks, and one is no longer raised at all when nobody on the side is taking them. Military Logistics →
• 2026-08-14
  Opting a group out of automatic orders now stops every kind of automatic task. Rescues, air taskings, counter battery and convoy protection all still arrived before. C2ISTAR →
• 2026-08-14
  The two OPCOM order options grey out when they can't do anything: Request Order while your group is already busy, Request Different Order when there's nothing to replace. C2ISTAR →
• 2026-08-14
  Asking for a different OPCOM order no longer walks in circles. Each group now remembers its last four orders and steers away from all of them, so repeated requests stop cycling between the same two or three. C2ISTAR →
• 2026-08-13
  The indexer now carries an environment setting: Urban, Woodland, Desert, Jungle, Pacific or Bocage, Urban by default. Your pick is written into the exported data, so you no longer have to edit it by hand. Worth confirming the export carries the environment you chose. Map Indexer →
• 2026-08-13
  Fixed a crash when an establishing shot was given an empty list of targets. Player Multispawn →
• 2026-08-13
  Save Server works on a dedicated server: the mission was being shut down instead of saved. Worth testing hosted as well, since the two behaved differently. Persistence →
• 2026-08-13
  The data module takes a comma separated list of Steam UIDs, and anyone on it can use Save Server without logging in as admin. Persistence →
• 2026-08-13
  The server now only accepts save requests from real admins or allowlisted players, so a client can't trigger a save it shouldn't. Persistence →
• 2026-08-13
  Added a step for the new Composition Environment setting on the indexer module, which decides which set of compositions a terrain uses and is now written into the index for you. It defaults to Urban, so set it before the scan runs. Submit a Terrain →

  The ambient garrison amount list gains Medium-Low (2 to 3 groups) and Medium-High (4 to 5), matching the main placement module. Custom Civilian Objective →

  The ambient garrison amount list gains Medium-Low (2 to 3 groups) and Medium-High (4 to 5). Existing values and the default are unchanged. Custom Military Placement →

  Civilian crowds no longer lose their mood when you move into a new part of the map; they fall back to the mission-wide figure instead of a default. Worth watching civilian behaviour shortly after arriving somewhere new. Ambient Civilian Population →
• 2026-08-13
  Civilian Placement starts much faster. Where a faction has no artillery groups and batteries are built from its vehicles instead, the search for gun positions fell from a hundred seconds to under thirty. Worth confirming artillery still appears where you expect it. Civilian Objective Placement →
• 2026-08-13
  Two more garrison sizes sit between the existing ones: Medium-Low puts 2 to 3 groups in a location and Medium-High puts 4 to 5. Existing missions are unaffected. Civilian Objective Placement →

  Random Camps place on wooded terrain again, and this module starts far quicker for it: 160 seconds down to 60. Worth retesting camps on a jungle or forest map. Military Placement →

  Two more garrison sizes. Medium-Low puts 2 to 3 groups in a location, Medium-High puts 4 to 5. The existing settings and the default are untouched. Military Placement →

  The air commander now starts in seconds rather than minutes: three and a half minutes down to about four on the mission this was measured against. Worth confirming aircraft are still adopted and tasked normally. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-08-13
  Fixed a hole in how the insurgency commander adds up hostility: a settlement with no hostility or casualty figures stopped the total accumulating. Worth watching if you're measuring insurgency growth or decay, since it would look like the balance drifting on its own. OPCOM (Military AI Commander) →
• 2026-08-13
  Hostility shifts are now weighted by what was involved: foot troops as before, technicals and pickups a quarter more, trucks and wheeled APCs half again, and boats, armour and aircraft double. Supplies arriving by boat were the case this was raised for. OPCOM (Military AI Commander) →
• 2026-08-13
  With escalation intensity switched on, the earliest escalation stage now recruits the faction's own foot-troop groups instead of a generic infantry pick, so what turns up there differs by faction. OPCOM (Military AI Commander) →
• 2026-08-13
  The strongest stage is unchanged, since it draws on everything. OPCOM (Military AI Commander) →
• 2026-08-13
  If you're testing insurgency balance, separate this from whatever else you're measuring and take a look at what the earliest stage actually fields for the factions you run. OPCOM (Military AI Commander) →
• 2026-08-13
  Asking OPCOM for a different order now replaces your group's current task instead of adding another one alongside it. C2ISTAR →
• 2026-08-13
  A reroll no longer hands you the same objective and the same task type again. C2ISTAR →
• 2026-08-13
  Units the cancelled task had reserved now return to the pool. If your group holds a task that didn't come from the tablet you'll be told it can't be rerolled there, which is expected. C2ISTAR →
• 2026-08-13
  Worth retesting: request several different orders in a row and check the list replaces rather than grows, and that the objectives vary. C2ISTAR →

  Every event ALiVE raises during a mission is now documented here, with the data each one carries, a listener you can copy, and a worked example for keeping sector modules in step with ALiVE objectives. Event Reference →

  Added an Event Reference for mission makers, the first scripting page in the collection.
• 2026-08-12
  Missions with this module start far quicker on large built-up maps. On Cam Lao Nam the module went from eighty five seconds to a fraction of one, and ALiVE startup from just over two minutes to well under one. Device placement is unchanged. IED →
• 2026-08-10
  A vehicle crew whose vehicle no longer exists is reported the same way dismounted troops always were, instead of dropping out of intelligence altogether. Worth watching for groups that go missing from reports after their vehicle is destroyed. Intelligence →

  Operations now appears in the ACE self interaction menu while an instant join is running, whatever that unit is carrying. It's the only place a join can be ended. Worth testing Cancel Instant Join from inside Operations after taking over a unit. ACE Menu →

  Asking for the same kind of delivery twice now gives you a map you can click, so you can choose where it goes. Before, it looked like that delivery type had locked itself out for the session. Player Resupply →

  A transport helicopter that runs out of fuel or gets stuck hovering now gets rescued: brought down and refuelled instead of hanging there. Worth reporting any that still hover with nothing aboard. Military Logistics →
• 2026-08-10
  A landing that hasn't finished is no longer closed out while the aircraft is still flying. One was at 324 metres and 224 km/h when the timer fired and was destroyed; it's now told to land again and given another five minutes. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-08-10
  Taking over an AI unit through Operations can be undone. Operations now shows whatever you're carrying while a takeover is active, and its Cancel Instant Join button puts you back in your own body. The other commander entries still need the tablet. C2ISTAR →
• 2026-08-07
  Override Categories now works on factions ALiVE had no data for, including the game's own. The faction used to lose the categories you didn't override. ALiVE Custom Faction Compiler →

  A plane placed with its own crew used to take off with nobody aboard, take no orders, and fly into the ground shortly after. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →

  Page corrected: the wait before deletion is 60 seconds for anything already dead and 30 seconds for objects still intact. Garbage Collector →
• 2026-08-06
  Page corrected: this isn't a module you place. Cleanup starts automatically with the ALiVE (Required) module, and its settings live there. Garbage Collector →
• 2026-08-06
  Page corrected: this is not a module you place. Recording is started by the ALiVE Data module, which also carries the setting that turns it off. Statistics →
• 2026-08-06
  Corrected the safety note: the tour reduces incoming damage to a hundredth rather than removing it, so the player is very hard to kill but not invulnerable. Guided Tour →
• 2026-08-06
  Page corrected: this is not a module you place. Crew Info is created and configured by the ALiVE Player Options module. Crew Info →
• 2026-08-06
  Ranks are now read using the engine's own rank identifiers rather than their translated names, so building an ORBAT works the same way on a non-English game. ORBAT Creator →
• 2026-08-06
  Corrected the climate note: the rain and lightning chances carried by each climate are not applied, so rain follows cloud cover and lightning is left alone. Ambient Dynamic Weather →
• 2026-08-06
  Page corrected: the three older intelligence modules are hidden from the editor and do nothing even in an old mission that still has one. Intelligence →
• 2026-08-06
  Panels line up consistently across every tablet display, and Mapbag scaling now matches the reworked tablet. Worth reporting any panel that looks misaligned or clipped. ACE Menu →
• 2026-08-06
  The marker hint entry now states the outcome, without an explanation of the cause that didn't match the code. Advanced Markers →
• 2026-08-06
  Page corrected: this is not a module you place. Player Tags is created and configured by the ALiVE Player Options module. Player Tags (Legacy) →
• 2026-08-06
  Page corrected: the three older intel modules are hidden from the editor and can no longer be placed, rather than merely discouraged. Intelligence →
• 2026-08-06
  Corrected the close air support tasking list, which described the transport module's orders. Close Air Support →
• 2026-08-06
  Corrected the quick marker shortcuts: they need CTRL rather than CTRL and ALT, and the unknown mark needs CTRL and SHIFT. Advanced Markers →
• 2026-08-06
  Fixed the description of the ambush behaviour (it plants roadside bombs and withdraws) and named where each of the three behaviours actually comes from. Military Command (AI Behavior Engine) →
• 2026-08-06
  Page corrected: this is not a module you place. Advanced Markers is switched on automatically by the ALiVE (Required) module. Advanced Markers →
• 2026-08-06
  The view distance entry corrected: the maximum is applied to players, the minimum only sets the bottom of the slider. View Settings →
• 2026-08-06
  The Call for fire rate setting now works when the artillery module has no AI commander synced to it. High and Surge previously behaved exactly like Normal in that arrangement. AI Commander Artillery →
• 2026-08-06
  Corrected the delivered lane: only garrison and building patrol come from the placement modules, sea patrol is Civilian Placement only, ambush belongs to the insurgent commander and the insurgent hideout behaviour is unused. Military Command (AI Behavior Engine) →
• 2026-08-06
  Page corrected: the FIA and the Gendarmerie do have a mapping, so Override Categories works on them; the larger stock factions still do not. ALiVE Custom Faction Compiler →
• 2026-08-06
  Corrected the setup steps: there is no Use Existing Static Data setting. The Object Categorization setting decides how objects are categorised, not whether the terrain is re-scanned. Map Indexer →
• 2026-08-06
  Corrected the terrain detail note: the ground detail slider is entirely separate from the view distance slider and does not follow it. View Settings →
• 2026-08-06
  The in progress list corrected: the old respawn menu helper is gone, and what remains is that Spawn in Vehicle only accepts a wheeled vehicle. Player Multispawn →
• 2026-08-06
  Page corrected: the log wording for a Faction ID clash and for no template groups being captured, and which of the two needs Debug switched on. ALiVE Custom Faction Compiler →
• 2026-08-06
  Page corrected: player logistics is on by default in any ALiVE mission. The module you can place is optional and is only used to switch features off. Player Logistics (Settings) →
• 2026-08-06
  Page corrected: this is not a module you place. Patrol Reports is started by the Player Command module. Patrol Reports →

  Page corrected: this is not a module you place. View distance limits are set on the ALiVE Player Options module. View Settings →

  Respawn Timeout described correctly: it sets how long the insertion flight waits for other players, not how long a player waits to respawn. Player Multispawn →
• 2026-08-06
  Page corrected: Override Categories mode applies to modded factions ALiVE has a mapping for, not to the stock Arma factions. ALiVE Custom Faction Compiler →

  Panels line up consistently across every tablet display, and Mapbag scaling now matches the reworked tablet. Worth reporting any panel that looks misaligned or clipped. Patrol Reports →

  Panels now line up consistently across every tablet display, and Mapbag scaling matches the reworked tablet. Worth reporting any panel that looks misaligned or clipped. SITREP →
• 2026-08-06
  Corrected the description of the save key fix: the problem was one mission copied onto a second map sharing the first map's saves, not two missions sharing a map. Player Persistence →
• 2026-08-06
  Page corrected: this is not a module you place. Player saving is created and configured by the ALiVE Player Options module. Player Persistence →
• 2026-08-06
  Corrected the description of hostility fading: it only ever falls, and it carries on past neutral to the calmest reading. Advanced Civilians →
• 2026-08-06
  The repositioning change entry now distinguishes static mortars, which do move, from towed guns and other static weapons, which do not. Support Artillery →
• 2026-08-06
  The repositioning entry now says plainly that a static mortar counts as movable, since its crew carries the tube. Support Artillery →
• 2026-08-06
  Planned lane no longer lists work that is already delivered. Support Artillery →
• 2026-08-06
  Page corrected: the group management screen arrives with the ALiVE C2ISTAR module, listed in the editor as Player Command/Control (C2ISTAR). There is no Group Manager module to place. Group Manager →
• 2026-08-06
  The mission log now records which faction garrisoned each building and how far the garrison was drawn from, so a wrong-faction garrison can be traced. CQB (Close Quarters Battle) →
• 2026-08-06
  Corrected the description of the repositioning check to include mortar crews carrying their tube. Support Artillery →
• 2026-08-06
  Corrected which guns can reposition: mortar crews pack up and carry the tube, so they are not held in place. Support Artillery →
• 2026-08-06
  The testing steps corrected: the welcome popup only appears in singleplayer or on a listen host with Local storage, not on a dedicated server. Persistence →
• 2026-08-06
  Page corrected: the command tablet comes with the Player Command and Control module. There is no separate module to place for it. Operations Command →
• 2026-08-06
  Panels now line up consistently across every tablet display, and Mapbag scaling matches the reworked tablet. Worth reporting any panel that looks misaligned or clipped. Operations Command →
• 2026-08-06
  The item settings entry corrected: trigger items decide who may open the resupply screen, and the blacklist and whitelist decide what can be requested. They're not the same setting. Player Resupply →
• 2026-08-06
  Panels line up consistently across every tablet display, and Mapbag scaling now matches the reworked tablet. Worth reporting any panel that looks misaligned or clipped. Task Missions →
• 2026-08-06
  The artillery repositioning entry corrected: moving to a new firing position is off by default and has to be switched on, and the battery still waits for you to order the move. Combat Support →
• 2026-08-06
  Helicopter insertion now holds the height set on the tablet, and holds station while hovering instead of drifting off. Combat Support →
• 2026-08-06
  Corrected the camp marker note: the change spreads debug map labels so they stop overlapping, it doesn't change how camps look. Military Placement →
• 2026-08-06
  Several spawning faults fixed: an air asset could freeze the whole simulation, a vehicle profile could crash the spawn, and delivered drones crashed with nobody at the controls. Aircraft spawning in the air now keep clear of nearby traffic. Virtualisation & Spawning →
• 2026-08-06
  Page corrected: Altis and Stratis are listed in the table below, not held back from it. Terrain Compatibility →
• 2026-08-06
  Player objectives can be added at the front of the queue and reordered while the mission runs, and they last the session. The call-for-fire rate setting now takes effect. OPCOM (Military AI Commander) →
• 2026-08-06
  Noted that the three player-designated-objective settings are not yet translated, so the delivered lane no longer claims full translation. C2ISTAR →
• 2026-08-06
  Panels line up consistently across every tablet display, and Mapbag scaling now matches the reworked tablet. The mission log no longer fills with automatic task position lookups. Worth reporting any panel that looks misaligned or clipped. C2ISTAR →
• 2026-08-05
  The Map Indexer's operating system choice and Custom Static Data setting now take effect. Changing either used to make no difference. Map Indexer →
• 2026-08-05
  The alternative Mapbag tablet look now matches the standard one. Its backdrop sat out of line with the controls drawn on it, and the mismatch grew the further the interface size setting was from default. Group Manager →

  The alternative Mapbag tablet look now matches the standard one. Its backdrop sat out of line with the controls, and the further the interface size setting was from default, the worse it got. Player Resupply →

  Starting height shown on the insertion panel corrected. Combat Support →
• 2026-08-05
  An aircraft that goes missing part way through landing no longer holds its runway shut for the rest of the mission. Loading a mission on a map with several airfields also no longer freezes the game for twenty seconds at a time. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-08-03
  Aircraft on a crowded field no longer spawn on top of each other and explode: the commander caps how many it places and keeps them spaced apart. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-08-03
  Aircraft stay where the air commander parks them instead of sliding across the airfield moments later. One case dragged a gunship into a tent hangar where it destroyed itself, the hangar and a parked plane. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-08-03
  Helicopters keep the helipads they're given instead of ending up a hundred metres away on open ground. A wide aircraft that fits no hangar or apron goes on clear open ground near its hangar rather than on a taxiway. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-08-02
  Added a Submit a Terrain page: index a map ALiVE doesn't support yet and send the result in for inclusion in ALiVE 3, with a walkthrough of the indexing process.
• 2026-08-02
  Added a Terrain Compatibility reference: every terrain ALiVE ships built-in support for, with its Steam Workshop link, an Official or Workshop tag, and how current the support is.
• 2026-08-02
  Ambient patrol routes now use spaced-out patrol points, with the arrival distance scaled to each leg, so groups loop around their area instead of stacking several points in one spot. Military Command (AI Behavior Engine) →
• 2026-08-02
  The patrol report screen now holds a fixed shape and sits centred, so it no longer stretches on wide and ultrawide displays. Patrol Reports →

  The SITREP screen now holds a fixed shape and sits centred, so it no longer stretches on wide and ultrawide displays. SITREP →

  Command tablet overhaul: scaling no longer stretches on ultrawide screens, Commander Operations is rebuilt (double-click group select, Back to Groups, single-order delete, a player battle group), and a new Instant Join picker lets you take over an exact soldier or vehicle seat. Operations Command →
• 2026-08-02
  The resupply screen now holds a fixed shape and sits centred, so it no longer stretches on wide and ultrawide displays. Player Resupply →
• 2026-08-02
  Delivered drones no longer arrive with no operator and crash on the way in, and a replacement aircraft no longer lands on the wreck of the one it's replacing. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-08-02
  First published: every terrain ALiVE ships built-in support for, with its Steam Workshop link, an Official or Workshop tag, and the date ALiVE added support. Terrain Compatibility →
• 2026-07-31
  The lightweight designate-a-point action is now in the dev build: designate, cancel and reorder a conventional commander's objectives from the Operations tablet, gated by a toggle, cooldown and per-side cap. Player-Directed Objectives →
• 2026-07-31
  New designate-the-target task: when the commander sends a strike against a building, players on that side get a task to mark it with a laser designator, with a radio call back when the mark is good. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-07-31
  New setting caps how many offensive sorties (strikes, SEAD, close air support and recce) can be airborne at once; leave it blank for no limit. Finished strike aircraft and their ground targets are tidied away when no players are close by. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-07-31
  A new task asks players to mark an air strike target with a laser designator while the aircraft runs in, and new settings let mission makers allow players to designate objectives for the AI commander. C2ISTAR →
• 2026-07-30
  A helicopter delivered to replace a lost aircraft now arrives on the ground with its crew instead of free-falling from altitude. Military Logistics →
• 2026-07-30
  Helicopters take real helipads, large VTOLs park on open ground clear of runways, taxiways and roads instead of blocking them, and aircraft flying in no longer collide on spawn. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-07-29
  Added an About ALiVE 3 introduction to the homepage: what the project is, the goals of the overhaul, the December 2026 final Arma 3 release, and how to get involved.
• 2026-07-29
  Added a Player-Directed Objectives design proposal: an early look at letting players direct the AI commander to a point, or build a base it reacts to, shared for feedback while it is still being scoped.

  Proposal published: scoping for letting players direct the AI commander to a point, or build a base it reacts to. Player-Directed Objectives →

  Weapon-aim hold time is now an adjustable setting, with an optional dynamic mode that scales it by each civilian's mood. Advanced Civilians →
• 2026-07-29
  Weapon Aim Hold Time is now a setting rather than a fixed 2 seconds, with an optional dynamic mode that varies it with each civilian's hostility. Civilian Interaction button captions now scale with Interface Size instead of being cut off. Ambient Civilian Population →
• 2026-07-29
  Crew on demand is now live: aircraft park without aircrew and a crew is raised only when a sortie launches, then stood down when it returns. MACC (Military Air Command & Control) →
• 2026-07-28
  Added a Task Missions reference: every side task the AI commander can hand out, grouped by type, with what each one asks and exactly how to complete it.
• 2026-07-28
  The High and Surge call for fire rates now work. Before, a commander stayed on the normal single-contact rate whichever you picked. AI Commander Artillery →
• 2026-07-28
  First published: a reference for every task mission, with what it asks and how to complete it. Task Missions →
• 2026-07-27
  Expanded to cover every module worked on since the overhaul began in March: the placeable modules, the player-facing systems, the new modules (AI Artillery, Custom Civilian Placement, Faction Compiler), Advanced Civilians, and the background modules. A link to the issue tracker was added to every page.
