Japo32 Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 Hello. I was wondering if the TC can design targets to the gunner through the vision of the CWS 50cal. I find it the only way to both gunner and TC look at different places same time, because the GPSE would produce both look at same place always. So I want the gunner control left for example and I with the CWS control right. If I see a target say to the AI gunner to target my contact. Thanks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Assassin 7 Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 (edited) The answer is no. The TC can override which is simply grabbing his palm switch and swinging the turret to what he was looking at which would put the CWS 50cal. off target. The M1A1 variants do not have the hunter/killer capability. More information on the m1a1 for SB here: http://www.steelbeasts.com/sbwiki/index.php?title=M1A1_(HA)#Commander.27s_Weapon_Station_.28CWS.29 Edited December 15, 2016 by Assassin 7 added A1 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Japo32 Posted December 16, 2016 Author Share Posted December 16, 2016 (edited) So it would be nice to add a function in SteelBeast, to tell the AI that I have a contact as TC at the direction I am looking (with CWS, binoculars or just by eye outside or in the periscope). Not only for the M1A1 but every vehicle. If in multiplayer I can say to my gunner in multicrew positions "contact 2 o'clock", I should be able to do it in SteelBeast 4.xx to my A.I. crew. I know I can tell him to scan front, right or left.. but maybe not the rear, or other "clock" positions. Thanks.

Grenny Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 The more practical and faster way in game is, to just jump into the gunners position and do it yourself...then jump back to TC position 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damian90 Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 Well the situation in case of M1A1's, in real world is a bit different when CWS cupola is replaced by newer SCWS which is fully stabilized, and have new day and thermal optics with 3x, 6x and 9x zoom, and can be used as a sort of panoramic sight equivalent. USMC is working on even more advanced version of SCWS, but we probably get more informations next year. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
