Status: offline 		Still playing Novyy Risadey, I was surprised to see the followings :

- My HMG refuses to shoot at a T34 to unbutton it. I thought this was a normal use of MGs.

- At the very start of a turn, a German and a Soviet tanks changed their target AND turned their turret in much less than half-second (around 0.2 second). I can understand that a tank commander can change his order in a very fast way, but the gunner should have taken few seconds to make the turret rotate 45 degrees. Am I wrong ?

MGs must fire Area Fire at tanks, not direct fire.

moet,

I'll take a look at the turret speed. The turret speed has been modeled, so it shouldn't show being turned that fast. Early on in our testing I thought we did some checks to make sure the turret rotation was ok. We'll check again,

thanks!
