:( Ok.. you took a heavy hit and your stabilization or *GPS/TIS goes out.. don't lose your head..
*Also by going too fast thru thick forrest a/o by small arms fire..
Hint: Move that tank ASAP to BP of low visiblity and set best BP.. that tank is best used as a sniper or information grinder.. :thumbup:
Move to another unit.. but remember, last 15 mins of game are the most critical..
And many times the GPS/TIS will come back on-line and sometimes if stabilization failure is not critical, that too will come back on-line.. :thumbup:
So don't lose a good tank, use your head..
Work those units.. :thumbup:
Good hunting.. Ls :yltype:

Does that really work? I've never seen it happen - not the TIS repair nor the Hydraulics.

It doesn't. Or shouldn't, at least.
The only "self repair" that happens is track damage and stabilization. There is reason why a broken radio should repair "itself" (e.g. replacement of antenna), but that's not implemented yet.

:hallucine: Hmmm.. maybe I'm suffering from battle shock.. and maybe the GPS/TIS only comes back on-line from damage thru forrest or small arms damage only, but, I have lost them (many times) this way, including a heavy hit, but they have (sometimes) come back on-line.. and its's always been when that tank has been "parked" and I come back to it later..
And your right about the radio.. never got that back once gone..
Good Hunting.. Ls :yltype:
PS.. it's battle shock.. GPS loss..
ie TIS goes too.. (but not damaged)..

If the GPS -ever- comes back, then...that's a bug, or you've switched to a different tank and forgotten ;) The only entries in the damage list that should ever disappear are stabilization and track damage. Stabilization only comes back up as long as the ballistic computer isn't damaged as well.
