I am back at my gaming PC and can finally test 4.12. Obviously TD forgot to mention a number of new features in the readme file. Here's what I found so far:

- They have reintroduced pilots and gunners that slump down when hit. Oleg had disabled this feature for the international version of the game in the 4.0 patch if I remember correctly.

- Planes can now perform artillery spotting!

- There are airfield tiles and craters as new objects in FMB.

Has anyone found other new features that weren't mentioned in the readme?

I?m back also, just downloading the new patch, but no time to check it in depth.

Although changes made to the AI mentioned in the guide covered ground avoidance and aiming, something that wasn't mentioned was the behaviour of light/medium twin engined bombers (Pe2, Do217 etc) when on Veteren or Ace setting... man, they really throw those planes around! Trying to do a head-on attack on a bomber when it suddenly rolls in on you is difficult and the chances of collision have gone way up
