Added

VBIEDs: Some civilian cars leaving enemy towns and cities can be suicide vehicles with enemy drivers. They hunt nearby friendlies, try to ram you once they get close, and detonate if a player is within 8 m while the driver is still alive. Kill the driver, then walk in slowly and use Disarm IED like a roadside bomb. Disarm prompt is always under the vehicle.

Dog Tags: Fallen teammates now drop tags. Player deaths cause -5 reputation loss. Look for a small flashing blue map marker, use Retrieve Dog Tags on the body, then walk the item into a friendly MOB or FOB for +3 reputation each. OPCOM calls out the player’s name when someone goes down, and a single Dog Tags Recovered message fires when you turn them in.

Fallen Bodies: Friendly corpses stay on the map until the server is empty or restarts. The retrieve prompt waits until the body has stopped moving. Leave tags unrecovered for 10 minutes and a small enemy element may move in to guard the site.

GM IEDs: Game Masters can place the custom COIN roadside IED variants in the editor. Look for them under the explosives entity type

Construction Overhaul: There is a new construction system for persistence. Now you can build command posts from construction trucks, and then subsequently build out other buildings from that post. If these items are within a sector they will not be deleted on server restart.

Changed

Reputation: Each player death now costs 5 reputation. Recovering tags offsets some of that loss.
Sector Persistence: GM-placed props, vehicles, and arsenals now save in any player-held sector, not just FOBs/MOBs, including a 50 m buffer so builds on the edge are not lost. If the enemy retakes the sector, that gear is deleted.
IED Blasts: Roadside IEDs use a raised fuel fireball with boom. They should hurt nearby, but only kill you if you are almost on top of them.
IED Gunfire: Armed IEDs can be set off by player or enemy fire, not just your own shots.
Languages: Player-facing COIN text (briefing, OPCOM, intel, map labels, and actions) now has English, Italian, and Latin American Spanish

Fixed

IED Explosions: Shot and proximity detonations now show the fuel fireball and play audio instead of the device silently disappearing.
Cache / RADAR Cleanup: Expired or failed fuel caches and RADAR sites are actually removed from the map instead of lingering after the task ends.
Task Timers: Cache and RADAR tasks no longer time out while you are within 800 m of the objective.
