Trying something new for patch notes - we're currently posting them in too many places, so we're considering switching to the GHPC website for the main posts and then posting links everywhere else. This is an example of a more fleshed-out release notes post. Let us know if you have feedback!

Even in the short time since the release of GHPC 20200630, development has been proceeding at a strong pace. Here's an AAR + free cam image from today's internal testing, showing an APFSDS impact on a T-55A hull. The layout of internal systems and external armor on the T-55A is complete. The various internal components interact with shots and are visible when the X-ray mode is enabled.
Further work in the near future will add in ammo racks, systems damage, crew ...

With the ability to shoot vehicle targets slated for release in July, we've been working on getting the AAR shot trace feature working in the new build. Here are a few screenshots from internal testing, showing some HEAT and APFSDS impacts on various parts of the T-55A turret.
