Title: Panzer sec weapon
Post by: snkbyt on April 20, 2003, 01:24:09 AM
Hi Guys, I load HE, AP,Smoke in hangar in a Panzer. When in the Turret in scope I see AP and want to change to HE or smoke. I push the backspace key and it won't change. In all the planes the backspace changes from rockets to bombs to guns or cannon. Have tried ckicking on the different ammo loads in hangar but still the same. Have dumped the game and did fresh and still same. Panzer is the only one seems to do this. Any help???? RAJNmaw

I Know how to stick map and key map. Can't fiqure out why the keys work to change weapon on my planes but not in a Panzer. Got to key or stick map in Flight settings and has sec weapon settings and they work. Go to vehicles and no Option for sec weapon. Seems it should be a Global setting but its only in flight settings.

That's because BKSP is the "change 2ndary weapon" command.  The main gun of the tank is its primary weapon, so you need to use the "change primary weapon" command.

On my machine, this is set as the tilde key, right next to the 1 key.  I can't remember if this is the default or not.  But anyway, look in your keymap (clipboard/setup/keymapping) for the "change primary weapon" command.  I think this is in the vehicle menu, maybe the gunner menu.  But that's what you want to use.

Backspace key switches Panzer ammo just fine for me, and I have the original key config from when I DLed AH.

That's what works for me.  The co-ax is the 2ndary gun of the tank.
