Default Re: Fixed: New Cold War 2020 mod release! (RC 0.4)

Hi!

Thanks for the reply, I'll look into the icon issue later today, if I get the time.

Regarding the Tu-160 issue, for my own hack, I have simply taken the Tu-22M layout from the original version and added a few bombs - 8 1000 kg bombs per slot instead of 6. I haven't filled it to the suggested max capacity from some sources, but I still thought it made sense that the largest Russian bomber carried the largest load.

The 152 mm thingy is quite interesting, because afaik, this is where the Russians are be heading sometime in the future, and the sources I've seen, seem to suggest an ammo storage of about 40 for the T-95 (and even for the upgraded T-80...). It sounds weird, so the obvious conclusion must be considering/developing a larger ammo storage. This again suggests a larger design or less armour, which is not the case... For my hack, I've made the T-95 slightly larger (size 5) and given it approx 40 rounds. Probably all wrong, but it is a functioning compromise (I've also given upgraded NATO tanks a 140 mm gun with a similar layout).

I've also noticed that some of your later Russian ATGMs have not been designated as DC or TA. Is this an oversight, or is it deliberate?

Great hack anyway, keep up the good work!
