!!! You need to config VCCS again !!!

This update, in addition to bug fixes brings a HUGE new addition. SQUAWK MODE-S! :grp: Mode-S is added to 4 airports (LTFM, LTFJ, LTAI, LTAC) which will take immersion to a brand new level. With this addition, you won't be able to see the aircraft unless they squawk mode C. Don't forget to ask them to squawk C before they push back!

The profiles have changed. Now we have Mode-S Airports and Other Airports. Here are the new keybinds:

Mode S Profile:
F1+1:LTFM TWR
F1+2:LTFM GND DEL
F1+3:LTFJ TWR
F1+4:LTFJ GND DEL
F1+5:LTAI TWR
F1+6:LTAI GND DEL
F1+7:LTAC TWR
F1+8:LTAC GND DEL

Other Profile:
F1+1:LTBJ GRP
F1+2:LTBS GRP
F1+3:LTCG GRP
F1+4:LTFE GRP
F1+5:LTFH GRP

If you would like to see detailed changes, here is a list:

-Added Mode S!!!! (LTFM,LTFJ,LTAC,LTAI)
-> Planes will no longer appear with their callsigns, unless they squawk Mode C. (only in LTFM, LTFJ, LTAC and LTAI airports due to realism)
-> GRP profile changed to *Mode S Airports* (LTFM, LTFJ, LTAC, LTAI) and *Other Airports* (GRP Supported airports without Mode S)
-> NEW Ground Visuals with 2nd Map Control

**Effective with AIRAC 2111**

With AIRAC 2111, we've updated the whole Ankara sectors, added the missing ones too and we have now all 19 sectors including upper sectors too, just like the real life one. For this update we coordinated with our neighbour vACCs so it's important to have this update, otherwise you'll have problems since you won't have the same borders with the neighbours, it will also effect TMA and Center sectors too. So this update is mandatory for all controllers. With this update I also added 2 text files in the main folder which will autoupdate the sector file with each AIRAC automaticaly without changing settings files. These 2 text files require a short installation process and I'll explain how to with pictures at our Discord server.

AIRAC 2111 ile tüm Ankara sektörlerine güncelleme yapıldı, eksik sektörler eklendi ve upper sektörler eklendi. Böylece gerçek hayatta var olan tüm sektörler artık bizim de sektör dosyamızın içinde var. Bu güncellemeyi yapabilmek için komşu vACC'ler ile koordineli bir çalışma yürüttük, bizim sektörümüze uyum sağlayacak şekilde sınırlarda ufak değişiklikler yaptık. Bu nedenle bu güncellemeyi yapmazsanız komşu vACC'ler ile olan sınırlarda problem yaşayabilirsiniz. Ayrıca TMA kontrolörleri ve Center kontrolörleri arasında da bu problem olacaktır. Bu yüzden bu güncelleme tüm ATC'ler için zorunludur. Bu güncelleme ile ana klasöre 2 metin dosyası ekledim. Bu metin dosyaları ufak bir kurulum gerektiriyor, bu kurulumun ardından her AIRAC güncellemesi otomatik olarak Euroscope üzerinden yapılabilecek. Bu güncelleme sadece sektör dosyasını ve ICAO dosyalarını değiştireceği için kullanıcı ayarları bozulmadan kullanabilirsiniz. Kurulumun nasıl yapılacağını Discord server'ında fotoğraflarla daha sonra anlatacağım
