Update 1.20.2.44

Changes

Vehicle

• Pr. 61M – the crew has been redistributed throughout the ship, and the base minimum crew size has been reduced by 10. This will increase the ship's survivability.
• A bug that caused the Me 262 A-1/U4 aircraft to not follow targets has been fixed.
• M53/59 – the collector's tank now displays the Czech flag instead of the USSR flag.
• ZBD-04A – a bug that caused more than 8 ATGMs to be taken into battle has been fixed.
• KV-1E – a bug with the thickness of the upper frontal armor has been fixed. The correct value is 75 mm, not 45 mm.

Locations

• On the Alaska map, the destructibility of the “telephone box” object has been fixed.

UI/UX

• A scroll bar has been added to the decal selection window.
• A bug that caused the filter window to be partially hidden on devices with a 16x9 aspect ratio has been fixed.
• The display of the reload circle when selecting the old style has been fixed.
• A new category, Decals, has been added to the Report menu.

Event

After the Halloween races started, we continuously monitored reports of bugs or inconveniences and made corrections to the mode. Here is a list of changes made over the course of 5 days:

• The length of the Halloween race track has been reduced.
• The display of information in the widget in the upper right corner of the screen during the race has been redesigned: now it shows the percentage of the lap completed.
• The display of the actual race start time has been fixed.
• A number of issues that caused crashes in race mode on some devices have been fixed.
• The incorrect message about the possibility of leaving the race when the plane is destroyed and the message about overload have been disabled.
• The number of boosters on the track has been significantly increased. The incorrect mention that boosters repair the plane has been removed from the battle waiting screen.

• Several turns that made it difficult to see the rest of the route have been fixed, and some control circles have been moved for better visibility.
• The machine gun has been removed from the racing version of the Po-2 aircraft.
  [i] Currently, there is no way to destroy an enemy aircraft with weapons during a race. If the kill chat displays a note about shooting down an enemy, it means that either the enemy has left the race or the aircraft crashed after being damaged by contact with another aircraft.
• Zoom has been hidden, as in combination with the effects of boosters on some devices, the field of view (FOV) was critically distorted.
• The defeat sound is no longer played at the end of the race.
• The option to follow the target by tapping has been disabled.
• The transition from fireworks directly to the Store for their purchase has been added, rather than to the event window.

Other

• In Ship Mode, the wake effect when taking off in an aircraft has been fixed.
• A bug that caused the Po-2 aircraft to appear in the tank armor analysis menu has been fixed.
• A number of bugs that caused a distorted field of view (FOV) to remain in regular aircraft battles after participating in Halloween races have been fixed.
• A bug that caused skins to be displayed after editing decals without saving them has been fixed.
• A bug that caused decals to be removed incorrectly on vehicles upgraded to Premium has been fixed.
• A bug that caused some of the assets used to start a battle to be loaded only after clicking the “To Battle!” button or downloaded manually has been fixed.
• A bug that caused artifacts to appear on devices with Immortalis GPUs has been fixed.
• A text key in the description of the Yak-15 engine has been fixed.
• A bug that made it impossible to enter the game on some iPad models (iPad Pro 2, iPad Pro 2 10.5 inch, iPad 5, iPad 6, iPad 7) has been fixed.
• New levels (above x9) of icons for the “Water Multi-Strike” match award in the Aviation Campaign have been added.
• Bugs with decal display have been fixed. All Operation Pass levels declared as rewards for purchasing VIP Operation Pass have been added.

We wish you victory and a great experience playing War Thunder Mobile (WTM)!
