Frontlines Combat Realism Overhaul

"War isn’t about who’s right, it’s about who’s left."

═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

Tactical Camera
• Extended zoom-out distance for better battlefield awareness
• Increased LOD (Level of Detail) — see the action even when zoomed out
• Removed grey atmospheric haze for clearer visibility

═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

All infantry weapons completely overhauled with realistic engagement ranges:

Bolt-Action Rifles: 180m (+50% from vanilla)
Semi-Auto Rifles: 175m (M1 Garand, SVT-40, G43)
Machine Guns: 140-180m (LMGs to HMGs)
Submachine Guns: 100m (close-quarters dominance)
Sniper Rifles: 200m (precision fire)
Anti-Tank Rifles: 160m (effective against light armor)

═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

• Spotting reduced by 20% — ambushes and flanking actually work
• Tanks have severely limited vision — they NEED infantry support
• Stealth matters — prone + cover + stealth = nearly invisible
• Silenced weapons produce zero detection signature
• Flanking maneuvers are genuinely effective

═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

• Walking and prone crawling speeds increased for smoother gameplay
• Run speeds unchanged to maintain tactical pacing

═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

(WIP)

• All tank/SPG/AA gun ranges increased by 25%
• Slower, more realistic vehicle speeds
• Reduced starting fuel — WIP
• More realistic armor penetration values
• Vehicles feel weighty and impactful

═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

• HE shells and grenades are devastating
• Mortar ranges increased 25% (81mm: 200m, 120mm: 290m)
• Rocket artillery buffed (Katyusha: 390m, Nebelwerfer: 375m)
• Mines and satchel charges are deadlier

═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

• AI economy completely separated from player economy
• Each nation has custom purchasing preferences based on historical doctrine
• AI maintains proper offensive pressure throughout the match

═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
