Tank bug

Enemy tank in captured city stops in bombed out building.  Building comes back up and he continues to shot and kill.  Meanwhile if you shoot at building you end up kill shooting yourself.  Same thing under stone bridge.  You shoot at approaching tank and kit bridge you just get explosion.  Yet Enemy lobs rounds through the stones and kills you.

You also get kill shot by hitting your control tower, like near the roof.

Killshooter or KS is the function in the game that prevents you from shooting or killing friendlies. If or when you do shoot and hit a friendly YOU take the damage he would have suffered.
It shouldn't apply to structures though.
Far too many, if not most, people on this Board post just to say something opposed to posting when they have something to say.

It shouldn't but does on some objects. Grab an Osty and go shoot up the control tower. Hitting some parts of it, like just below the roof and the railing around the top. I've also gotten it by hitting the tower for the radar, which is harder to reproduce.
