crazyman56 Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 I was playing the first mission in the russian campaign and one of my tanks shot a panzerIV and the engine caught on fire the crew leapt out of the tank but the tank (abandoned) and on fire continued as this video shows: Click here I am sorry about it being on my piczo page but it would'nt upload on youtube.

12Bravo Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 Maybe because the tank was still in gear with the engine running? Sounds reasonable... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazyman56 Posted June 17, 2007 Author Share Posted June 17, 2007 yes but it was on fire normaly when a vechile is on fire even if the crew is in it it will not or anyting and i put the camera next to it on anothere video and it only had 1 track!

FinnN Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 Yep, if one track gets knocked out the tank will continue forward for a short while spinning slightly around on the damaged side. I guess what's happened here is that the tank has been knocked out but the damage hasn't spilled over into the engine or tracks yet. So long as it didn't carry on indefinitely it doesn't seem that unreasonable - did it? Have fun Finn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazyman56 Posted June 17, 2007 Author Share Posted June 17, 2007 it did stop only because it hit a house the engine was still on fire and exhaust fumes where coming out of it still Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrAL Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 It was a bug. We've fixed it already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sivodsi Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 It got fixed?! NOOOO! Bring it back! Damn, if there was any way to do it reliably we could have lit our light tanks and sent them plunging into the enemy. That would have been sooooo kool!

GrAL Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 Well, we still have a possibility that burning tank will move on a short distances without crew. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sivodsi Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 That's old hat. Even CMX1 had that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
