Crew operations in TC

[Hanu]

I was under impression that you have to do everything in TC, at least at this point of development cycle. I was very surprised couple of days ago when I was standing at commanders seat and my gunner engaged the nearby enemy tank that rolled out behind the building! He shot several shots and achieved few hits. After this I jumped into gunners seat and finished the enemy vehicle.

 

Have I missed something important or did I just daydream? Because last night when I tried again, the gunner was again as passive as my boss during salary-raise season... Can you issue commands to your gunner/crew? Should they work independently already? What sort of a crew management is to be expected in finished TC?

Yeah! Noticed the same several times in single mission! My gunner fired at will at every target that was in sight. Though I did not give them any orders. Btw, I have no idea how can I order something to some crew member or how to swich this "command mode" on.  It just switched somehow itself )
I suppose that's some parts of new features infiltrated in the release..

I guess they have the Petrovich in the tanks now as well! Yay!

Yes in the mission "Reunion" my gunner would fire whenever I came to a stop

Press ~ key (default settings) and order gunner to fire at will.

If my gunner starts shooting on his own, I'll kick him out of the turret.
