Panther, gunner position selection method oddity!

[3smokingcommies]

Not sure if I encountered a bug or if this was intended. I couldn't understand why if I switched to any other position than gunner's position it seemed the commander could gain control of my turret even if the main gun and turret were in the "unlocked" state when I left the gunner's position.

 

I think I may have discovered the why! It seems to do with how you move to the gunner's position. If I move from crew position to crew position using the "Switch to next free combat position" LCtrl C and I enter the gunner's position, nothing changes in terms of the main gun and turret are still in the locked position; however if I enter the gunner's position directly using "Switch to first firing position" RShft 1, the hydraulic turret actuator is turned on and the main gun and turret are unlocked.

At some point, I must have returned to the gunner's position after having previously gone there directly and unaware that I had previously unlocked the main gun and turret; I accidentally re-locked it thinking I was unlocking it.

 

As an added note, I'm pretty sure the default turret control keys had a secondary assignment of WASD which I deleted as I have these mapped to my driving controls.
