В билютени на описание дальности противотанковой гранаты ошибка, как в оригинале, так и у вас. Многие думают, что она не работает, но на деле она работает на абилку из тактики охоты на танки. я думаю много таких штук в игре, по типу того, что билютень максима на подавление даёт 5 процентов, а на деле 1.

Some more combinations, this time two versions of the Panzer III, with some visual liberties of course.

I was using a bulldozer attach function and syncing to the gunner_sync marker of an M2 .50cal that's added to the turret's abp. That way the unit plays like a regular vehicle, but animating the treads is tricky. I used a filter action that requires the turret (Pz IV) to be moving, then a velocity variable will be applied to the hull (StuG) to move the treads.




Now, unfortunately, there is a big issue with AI. The AI can't spawn attached entities it seems, so this method will not work for AI-controlled vehicles. The vehicle has to have the "abandoned" critical removed from its health_ext, as on death or takeover by AI, the vehicle will lose any attached entities.

If anyone has found a way to make the AI spawn attached entities, let me know.

To circumvent this, I created team weapon-style copies of the Panzer III for the AI - these work exactly like the SdKfz 234 I made, see the guide above. This leads to two more issues:

1. The AI will never build team-weapon-attached vehicles. Maybe because it identifies the dummy weapon as useless, I don't really know. This can be fixed by having the AI build a regular Panzer IV as a dummy, that despawns and in its stead spawns a team weapon attached vehicle

2. Once the AI has built a team-weapon-attached vehicle, it will not use it properly. The moment it takes control, it will reverse the vehicle into its own base, drive up to the HQ and drive out again, about one sector, then reverse back and so on in an endless loop. I observed this behavior in several tests.

@Sie_Sayoka: You have experimented with these methods more than anyone, do you maybe have a solution or a pointer how to fix this, especially No.2?

Just wanted to say I love the new unique appearances added for the units that didn't have one. The conscript sergeant green sash thing is awesome. Only one I can think of now that needs one is the Vickers HMG squad, maybe a bullet bandolier for them, like all the other HMG squads?

Also a pipedream but maybe at some point Ostheer Grenadiers could not be wearing a full set of camo pajamas (wishful thinking)

Reinforced HMG Bunker weapon pillbox_mg42_mp has the same animation as hmg_team_mg42_mp.
Modify weapon pillbox_mg42_mp
fx_action_target_name / pintle_mg42_target => mg42_target
fx_tracer_name / pintle_mg42_tracer => mg42_tracer
Can fix the tracer effect animation.
