8.0 Alpha Test!
Sunday July 9th @ 5pm GMT
We were not going to test this weekend, wanting to wait for more stuff to be complete, but we have new maps ready to test!

Since last test we've worked on:
- Improved various maps
- Adjustments to reinforcements and attrition
- Supply vehicles now generate supply over time
- Major changes to performance and handling of:
- GMC Truck
- Opel Blitz
- Jeep
- Kubel
- Added shovel sounds
- Added rally point swap ability (turn active RP into the inactive one and inactive becomes active)
- Removed reinforcement obscuring system (??? reinforcements during round)
- Removed restriction of # of dead bodies and made bodies stay for a given amount of time (default 30 seconds)
- Made enemy reinforcements hidden again (like in 5.1)
- Many bug fixes including:
- Fixed Squad member notification messages that were not accurate
- Fixed Allied Pawn skin/face texture on uniform
- Fixed drawing issues with squad numbers and member locations on map
- Fixed a bug where the SL could make a rally point alone
^ That will not be a comprehensive list as we will have other changes in later today and early tomorrow.
- See you on the battlefield
