When your in a tank will you be able to rotate the turret while driving in a straight direction? Or is it gonna be the ordinary "Have to face forward" M1 way?

Even better, Could you fix it so the tank shells only come out of the turret going straight, not always toward the enemy?

Well at the mo its gonna be a simple matter of fire forwards (as in fixed turrets).

Perhaps later on we could think about cursor movement and mouse turrets but its a lot of tarting around. At present the weapon mounts are not geared up to rotate.

aight then, its not like a "Must have" thing, If its not gonna happen i'll tolerate it.

But yah i noticed how the enemies could fire directly at you without fully turning around. I didnt like that and neither did my friends. And I also noticed how Tanks and other vehicles turn around nearly 3x as fast than they normally do when they see you, Which appeared a little annoying to me. It would be pretty nice if hey had to fully turn around (At their own speed!) To fire at you.

Yes I think I fixed that. Well its not a matter of fixing because the M2 AI and firing code is all totally new.

Is there a way for you to make a turret that you can shoot with?

Well i thought you could control the vehicle when its moving with the Direction Keys, and control the mount with the Mouse aim.
