Phase 10 of the road to 1.1.0, released as 1.1.0-beta.6 (Forge 26.3 jar only). Mirrors the private release: 217 per-file signed commits, same tree.

Added

• M18 smoke grenades in four colours, thrown by hand or from dispensers; packs can add their own throwables.
• GLTD target designator that calls A-10 gun runs, and the laser rangefinder that spots targets for your team.
• Team-only HUD markers for spotted players, mobs, vehicles and marked points.
• Cargo container loaded and dropped from racks, parachuted down when dropped high, and the tow chain for slinging loads.
• FIM-92 Stinger and FGM-148 Javelin shoulder launchers (Javelin direct and top attack).
• UAV station and portable controller, including the self-flying target drone.
• Troops: mobs board free crew seats and get out with Y by rope, parachute or on foot.
• Search lights, blade folding, rotor downwash and other vehicle particles, block-marking targeting pods and the mortar landing distance on the HUD.
• Drafting table to browse and craft every MCHeli recipe, and the team manager on M for operators.
• Recipes for all the new equipment from the original config.

Changed

• The equipment tab lists the new items and is rebuilt after a content reload.
• The E-767 can be crafted (needs a UAV station); content is imported again on the first start (import format 4).
• The full controls and guides moved from the README to docs/PLAYING.md, old screenshots to docs/SCREENSHOTS.md.
• Network protocol 9: players and servers need the same version.

See CHANGELOG.md for the full notes and docs/TESTING.md for the phase 10 checklist.
