--v1.04 Patch Features--

• CM:SF is multi-processor/multi-core friendly. Workarounds like "setting affinity" to single-processor are no longer needed.
• Improved frame rate, especially on large maps.
• Improved vehicle pathfinding.
• Various "stuck units" problems fixed.
• Corrected a problem with shots coming through ridgelines.
• Soldiers are much quicker to take up fighting stances and/or open fire when reaching a movement destination.
• When ordered to stop moving, soldiers halt immediately rather than look for best positions. This helps them avoid unnecessary casualties.
• Vehicles correctly respond to non-Movement Commands assigned to Waypoints.
• Area fire versus buildings properly spreads fire versus all locations on the indicated level.
• Soldiers are more likely to move through breaches blasted in building walls rather than close by doorways.
• The TacAI is generally more likely to open fire, especially with heavy grenade launchers. Previously the TacAI tried too hard to conserve ammunition.
• Troops do a better job facing in the direction implied by the end of a movement path.
• Troops cannot disembark through walls.
• "Target Light" works properly for infantry.
• Corrected a problem where a vehicle would button up due to incoming small arms fire, but then become overly reluctant to fire its own weapons.
• Corrected a problem where troops would not exit a vehicle because some other troops onboard were considered blocking exits even though they were not.
• When units are pinned (i.e. they can shoot but will not respond to movement orders) it is shown in the suppression meter display.
• Corrected some problems where teams within a squad were not properly coordinated for movement.
• Smoke grenades don't damage vehicles.
• Grenades are used properly (fixed a bug that made the range used too short).
• Antitank weapons like Javelins are less likely to be used during area fire (except versus buildings).
• Improved ground textures.
• Distant terrain looks smoother and less "blocky".
• Trenches and roads show up better at longer distances.
• Map elevations are displayed more accurately when viewed from long distances.
• Brush terrain is drawn out to greater distance.
• Computer player won't hold armored vehicles back so far in the rear.
• Antitank specialist is more likely to be the man who picks up an antitank weapon (say, when unloading a Javelin from a Stryker).
• Moving vehicles have reduced spotting capability.
• Blown-out building walls don't cause lots of ricochets as if the wall was still there.
• Fixed a bug that caused problems with splitting squads multiple times in turn-based games.
• Fixed a bug that sometimes caused a crash during game-save.
• Corrected a problem where multi-unit selecting a shaken/panicked unit would cause the multi-unit select to be canceled.
• Stryker smoke is now the correct color (white).
• "Game Paused" message is smaller and less obtrusive.
