Bug Description
i just port my mod from Npatch to Ares 0.1p1 one feature that make me consider to move my mod to Ares is Jumpjet shadow fix an i have try this already it working verywell but i found some thing strange in this change,
it may not serious problem but i just want to tell you what i found.
1. if i not mistake seem like shadow from non-turret vehicle darker vehicle that have turret i have no idea why this happen but i capture some picture for you.

2. because you use shadows base from unit shadow it will curse something like this when you use megnetron weapon on ground unit that is shp.
*my idea to solve this problem easiest [atleast i think - -" ] , you should add some tag like "DisableShadowO
or the better way but harder , make the unit auto generate shadow base from unit graphic like Jumpjet infantry do in Tiberian Sun when he flying for example.

3. and this it's not problem but i don't know you intend modder to do like this to creation jumpjet vehicle shp?
follow the picture both picture is the shp that i convert to be png with "combine shadow" option
number 1 is he old shp style without Ares [size W95 H260] t to make jumpjet vehicle that draw shadow on ground with (turret=yes) ; chassis witll be place on the center of picture but shadow will be lowver near bottom.
number 2 is jumpjet vehicle Shp in Ares style [sizeW95 H95] both chassis and shadow will place on the center of picture.

4.and finally problem about attack facing on non-turret jumpjet unit. i think you know this problem already because i ever saw topic like this before but it close before i can comment anything, on the old topic seem like you don't fix this because it may curse problem to unit like Kirov and another original unit but how about if you add some tag like [ HoverRangeWeapo
1. Which unit in your screenshot has the turret?
2. Weird, I'll look at that sometime.
3. I'm not sure what you're asking here, sorry.
4. When you put it that way, it sounds simple to do... but it's quite complicated.
It would help if we could test with the exact ini/shp you're using.
