Panzer Wobble, bug or feature?
« on: December 03, 2004, 11:20:33 PM »
Parked in a panzer, 'trying' to spawn camp (not my favorite past time..)

Anyway, like I said, I'm parked, engine off, just waiting.  Repeatedly, the dang panzer would start bouncing around and felt like it was sinking into the ground, then it would stop and I could watch the nose slowly raise for a few moments.  Then things would stop for a few seconds, only to repeat the whole episode again.  

I tried moving around to different spots, but kept getting the same result.  I just don't see how its possible for an x-Ton tank to suddly start doing the 'Low-Rider Hop' for no apparent reason..

Here's a 48 second video showing the problem:

The video starts with everything seeming normal, about half way thru, you'll see the 'sink and hop' trick, followed by the front of the vehicle slowly starting to rise.

Well I'll Be.  

Common sense said "leave it in gear, else it might roll away" :0

Maybe we need a virtual parking break...

Thanks gents
