Rework of radar modelization
- 2 modes:
- Global: all available radars make the total radar coverage as in LotAtc 1.X
- Monoradar (WIP): Each controller will have to choose the radar to use, it will get only contacts from this one (later coverage will be completed by datalink simulation)
- Add RCS simulation: all items (planes, heliccopters, missiles…) will be computed and displayed if radar can see it using their RCS resolutaion and item own RCS
- Add Radar resolution : if enabled, radar will not see items near each other, only one track could be made ( for example 3 aircrafts separated by 20m will be seen as only one contact)
- Add spot/track management : radar will first see a spot with no data, then after a while (for example 6s, could be csutomized) if the spot is always there, a track will be made on it (and have data as speed, hedaing, symbol…)
All theses options can be enable/disable in profile lua file (see profile/custom.lua for more help).

Rework of radar modelization
- 2 modes:
- Global: all available radars make the total radar coverage as in LotAtc 1.X
- Monoradar (WIP): Each controller will have to choose the radar to use, it will get only contacts from this one (later coverage will be completed by datalink simulation)
- Add RCS simulation: all items (planes, heliccopters, missiles…) will be computed and displayed if radar can see it using their RCS resolutaion and item own RCS
- Add Radar resolution : if enabled, radar will not see items near each other, only one track could be made ( for example 3 aircrafts separated by 20m will be seen as only one contact)
- Add spot/track management : radar will first see a spot with no data, then after a while (for example 6s, could be csutomized) if the spot is always there, a track will be made on it (and have data as speed, hedaing, symbol…)
All theses options can be enable/disable in profile lua file (see profile/custom.lua for more help).

Server
Rework of radar modelization
- 2 modes:
- Global: all available radars make the total radar coverage as in LotAtc 1.X
- Monoradar (WIP): Each controller will have to choose the radar to use, it will get only contacts from this one (later coverage will be completed by datalink simulation)
- Add RCS simulation: all items (planes, heliccopters, missiles…) will be computed and displayed if radar can see it using their RCS resolutaion and item own RCS
- Add Radar resolution : if enabled, radar will not see items near each other, only one track could be made ( for example 3 aircrafts separated by 20m will be seen as only one contact)
- Add spot/track management : radar will first see a spot with no data, then after a while (for example 6s, could be csutomized) if the spot is always there, a track will be made on it (and have data as speed, hedaing, symbol…)
All theses options can be enable/disable in profile lua file (see profile/custom.lua for more help).
Better support for dedicated server
- Enable dedicated_mode in config lua
- No more need to edit Config/Options.lua

- Blacklist/Whitelist Ips (there is still some troubles with IP6 support)
- Add specific username/password that will be authorized to connect with LotAtc
- Enable/disable old login way by standard passwords (blue/red one)
Add quick mission in DCS to use LotAtc with test mission
Administrator can customize config.lua with config.custom.lua file
- See config.lua :
Server commands only available to specific users
- See server commands :
