Caractères et insignes nationaux

Extended MP Font Support

As of SEOW v3.2, the Mission Planner supports an extended range of international characters (Unicode). This is most obvious in the new verbose flight names. There are now 1998 different air regiments defined in SEDB32 (645 made newly available through the HistorySFX Mod), each with its own (editable) historical name. Some examples are:

340 Squadron (FAFL) GC IV/2 "Ile de France"

82 Squadron "United Provinces" RAF

G. de Chasseurs-Bomb. I/18 "Vendée"

14. Staffel (Jabo), JG5 "Eismeer"

J/88 JagdGruppe "Legion Condor"

1 Squadriglia 1a sq "Asso di Bastoni", 1 GC ANR

85th Dokuritsu Dai Shijugo Chutai IJA

309th "Ziemi Czerwienskiej" FS

USN VF-32 "Outlaw's Bandits", USS Langley CVL-27

Similarly, Army Division names defined in the Army_Units table now also support extended character sets. The Statistics engine reproduces the character sets faithfully, so thee is significantly improved scope for added realism in developing your orders of battle.

National Insignias

SEOW v3.2 also includes extra national insignias, so designers can include more diverse orders of battles in their campaigns. Recent inclusions are:

Belgium

Brazil

Bulgaria

China

Croatia

Czech

Egypt

Greece

Iraq

Israel

Spain

Switzerland

Syria

Thailand

Vichy France

Yugoslavia

One of the really nice features is that from SEOW v3.2, the national insignia will be displayed on individual platoon tooltips. Previously, the dominant Axis or Allied insignia was displayed. Now, for example, Romanian and Italian ground units will be clearly identifiable from their insignia in the Stalingrad sector, even though they are fighting for the dominant German forces.
