Spring Campaign Wrap-up
Update 2.0.13 will draw a line under the spring campaign.Campaign participants with the corresponding achievements will be able to research and purchase the Tier X Su-10 and EF-131 bombers with a significant discount (up to 80% depending on the number of achievements earned during the spring campaign). In addition, those who managed to earn all 10 of the campaign's achievements will receive pilots for the Su-10 and EF-131 with 5 free skill points. If some of the steps were missed, you will have an opportunity to catch up and increase your discount by completing 10 special missions. You can also skip any mission in a chain using tokens. Upon completing these missions players will also receive Supply crates with additional prizes.
Players that received a stage medal but did not complete the third mission (Service Award) of any campaign stage and, accordingly, did not receive a Supply crate as a reward, will receive the same number of one-hour boosters (up to 8). Players who earned the Master of Vengeance or Red Falcon achievements will also receive a one-hour booster for each achievement.

Bots
Updated the bots' control system via the chat shortcuts (keys F2, F3, F4, and F7).Each player can control only one bot at a time. The bot will execute orders until one of the three following events occurs: it is destroyed; the aircraft that the bot is attacking or defending is destroyed; the sector that is the target of the bot's attack or defense passes into the hands of another team.
After the player uses the chat shortcut, the order will be assigned to the bot that is closest to the team's target and piloting a suitable aircraft. Bots that are already executing any other player’s order will ignore the new order. If there is not a single suitable free bot, the order will be declined. If the bot is attacked on the way to its target, it can join the battle to defend itself, and this will postpone the order's execution.
- Upon pressing the F2 key, a player sends one suitable bot to the selected sector (when attacking) or calls it to assist with defending the sector (a player must be in that sector). The bot goes there and starts attacking the targets corresponding to the target's aircraft type. The territory type affects the bot's choice, for example, fighters are not involved in attacking plants, and attack aircraft and bombers will not provide support when defending sectors.
- Upon pressing the F3 key, a player calls a bot that will become a Flight member and provide support for this player. The choice of the bot depends on what the player is currently engaged in — the attack aircraft type can provide support when attacking sectors; outside these sectors, a player can order fighters to provide cover.
- Upon pressing the F4 key, a player can order a bot that is piloting an attack aircraft type to engage a selected enemy aircraft or to defend a selected allied aerial target. In addition, you can order the bot to defend the allied Attack Flight.
- Upon pressing the F7 key ("Clear my Tail!"), a player can order a bot that is piloting a fighter aircraft type to attack all aerial targets threatening the player.
