Turret movements after new Update


Recommended Posts

Posted

I love all the aspects & improvements in the newest update but at least one has me perplexed: wile cruising thru one of the new maps in my Pz iV , I opened the hatch lifted myself out of my commanders seat. Now here's the bit I don't understand.while "driving the tank & stayed in line with the bow(i.e. front) of the tank.Ok this took some getting used to but i can now understand the logic,BUT while driving along the road the turret & long barreled 75 jinked repeatedly left & right for as far as i could tell no apparent reason. Later I think my turret machine gun went automtically into operation agait what I think was an enemy antitank position in front of me.I didn't get much chance to figure if I was seeing things ( or if what I was really seeing was inbound not outbound fire..) because i was 'brewed up" in the next few seconds..sigh.

So what gives with the new FM or is it TM? can someone explain so I might avoid this battle field confusion next time? Thanks!

This already happened in Lofte's second tank mission "Prelude to "Winter Storm", Pokhlebin, 4th dec. 1942", that the AI gunner took over control of the turret, while the player was in the commander position, turned the turret and fired the guns on his own. However I tried to reproduce this in QMB and Thad's 'BTL Panzer IV Ausf. G At The Gate', but so far I only experienced it in Lofte's Panzer IV mission.

Would be nice, if the Devs could bring some light into this.

Seems like a work in progress feature has somehow crept into the build or something. AI gunner is planned for further down the road as I recall.

The developers consistently do this. They don't provide us with details explanations for their patch updates. It is indeed frustrating especially for mission builders. Why not provide us a README or PDF file with detailed new patch data. Ah, one can only dream.
