New tank bug..

[Wobble 1]

It seems that sometimes when you get your tank repaired it doesent really get repaired.. the damage indicator shows it as repaired and so does its color.. but as far as "hit points" its just like before..

tests:

test1:took M1A1 and shot it with T-72 untill the turret broke..took 3 shots (could not raise/traverse)

drove to repair truck and got it fixed..

gun worked fine..

shot the turret 1 more time with the T-72,.. turret demolished and soldier inside killed

Test2: took T-80 and shot it in the side with M60 till damage indicator showed all red on that side.took 4 shots.

got the tank repaired..

damage showed as repaired and so did color..

shot it 1 time on that side with M60 and it blew up..

so it seems despite it graphcally showing that you have been repaired the hitpoints do not get adjusted(raised) and basically it taks as many shots to kill you as it would have if you did not get reapired at all.

do you guys really think that in the heat of battle you can get your tank repaired 100%.

This is a combat simulator and getting the turrent fixed so it will go up and down and being able to fix tracks

together in the limited amount of time is crazy. I do agree with the color damage indicator which does give you a false reading and Maybe if the repair truck would only repair the damage to a certain extent so the Vehicle can be sort of battle ready and still show that the tank still has some damage.

Yeah he is right, I mean where did you see such heavy damage repaired in seconds?

This is a combat simulator

that idea went bye bye when we saw the A-10 and its pathetic weaponry.. but anywho..

I dont think its too far fetched.. i mean its not like your in the heat of battle getting reapired (or that poor truck wouldent last long would it)

I think it should be done where the longer you stay by the truck the more repair you get.. make it take up to 10 min or so.. that way it would be realistic enough and still fun.
