 CBA_A3 v3.1.0.160928

@commy2 commy2 drafted this 22 days ago

This release adds Join Rails compatibility to pistols and bipods from the Tanoa expansion and tweaks various small issues with the AI and settings functionality. It also removes old, long deprecated and/or non functional code mainly stemming from the days of Arma 2. We also fixed the "callsign" composition attribute from the Eden-Editor by inserting our own custom MP compatible function.

KNOWN ISSUES:

    Some CBA keybinds might not appear in the controls menu. The easiest currently known workaround is to create a new user profile.
