Bug with target arc


Recommended Posts

During playing I've discovered a strange issue with the vehicle behavior with target arc command. Some times tanks didn't point the main gun at the center of circular sector, as was in CMBN and even CMx1 times. And, some times, they rejected to turn in ordered direction!

I've create a small testbed scenario and received an interesting results.

Step 1. I give an target arc order for all armors on picture below:

As we can see, only tanks had turned their turrets at ordered direction, not turretless StuGs, Nashorn, etc.

More interesting, Hetzer turned it's MG, not the main gun!!!!

I wait for several minutes but nothing changed in position...

Step 2. I give an target armor arc command. Nobody even bored to turn turrets. Except sole "Marder"...

Step 3. I give to Hetzer move command and after "target armor arc"

Again only MG turned to desired direction, not main gun.

 

What happens?? 

 

Something wrong with pictures  :(

Well I did not get around to testing it.  The turretless vehicles are probably behaving as coded.   Facing controls the tank hull direction, covered arc controls the turret direction.   So with a turretless vehicle you will probably see that.  But your pics have a vehicle with a turret pointing in unexpected direction.  I have not seen that in my play but wanted to try it again before responding here.  But totally forgot - to many other things on the go.

 

The electronic warfare thing is a known issue it got pooched in one of the patches.
