Wirble turret auto correct
« on: December 09, 2009, 10:37:56 AM »
Ive noticed and have used this glitch to my advantage in wirbles.

If you notice a plane is coming at you in a HO and your turret is facing backwards you can go to hull gun and back to turret and the turret will be facing forwards again in an instant.  Anyone else use this glitch?  I think it needs to be corrected as this defeats the efforts to slow the traverse of the turret in the last versions patch.
They call it "common sense", then why is it so uncommon?

I think it needs to be corrected because if you dont think before changing positions the gun may move without your intention. Its the same for the Ostie you know.
If you like the Sick Puppy Custom Sound Pack the please consider contributing for future updates by sending a months dues to Hitech Creations for account "Chalenge." Every little bit helps.

Bomber turrets do the same thing.  It is really annoying.

It's extremely annoying when I'm trying to get enemy planes to attack me by using the hull gun to make them think my turret is facing one way while the big guns are aiming right at them.


Fix this please?  IL2's flying 2K Away are difficult to hit, and I need all the help I can get.

I tried this out last night.  As much as I love my Wirbel, I prefer some modicum of realism.  It needs to be fixed.

While we're at it can we get some gun shake added to fix the rock-solid aiming platform?
Ron White says you can't fix stupid. I beg to differ. Stupid will usually sort itself out, it's just a matter of making sure you're not close enough to become collateral damage.

Ya,  I use it a lot just to center my guns back up with direction of travel, but it should be corrected, in all vehicles/planes.

Zoom in and fire any AC gun. They shake.
