Title: GV turret request
Post by: Gwjr2 on February 09, 2003, 10:39:07 AM

Would like to see bearing indication relative to the turret postion to front of GV while in the main gun.

Also Speed displayed in the bombsite on buffs.

Before we go into these details, I 'd rather see the vehicle damage model advanced beyond Nintendo. A single ping from a 37mm field ack at 1,500 yards (shooting HE), should not immobilize a Tiger. Happens all the time.

My regards,

would also be cool to stear tanks with the rudders and use regular throttle for speed.  leaving the joystick free to aim the hull-gun

Hitting them in the tracks, would disable them, in a 37MM..not every shot, but if modeled for localized hits, it's possible.
