RELEASE NOTES:-
V0.2ALPHA
Multiplayer bug fixes + Dedicated Type 45 Menu added.
V0.1 ALPHA
This is a Multiplayer and AI combined version of HMS Duncan. It can be run as a stand alone AI ship, or you can be Captain over Multiplayer.
This ship contains some experimental code which will transmit the Wave motion the Captain sees over MP. This means Pilots cant cheat by setting the weather to calm. I stress again THIS IS EXPERIMENTAL!!!!
For pilots landing on you over Multiplayer, they need to select you the same way as any other Multiplayer Aircraft Carrier.
LIMITATIONS !!!
The limitations to the current code mean only one Type 45 can be operated at a time over Multiplayer
