M1A1 variants and M1A2 Turret positioning is not correct when reloading from Hull Ammunition Compartment [FIXED]

[Assassin 7]

When the M1A1 and M1A2 go to reload from the Hull ammunition Compartment the Turret is going over to the 9 clock position. It should be going to the 11 clock position to line up with the Hull Ammunition Compartment Doors.

On the actual tank there are two doors. One with 3 rounds that point towards the front, and one with 3 rounds that point to the rear. To get to one you would need to be at 10-11 o'clock (yes), but to get to the other you will need to be about  7-8 o'clock, so we split the difference at 9 o'clock so we just have one orientation.

7-8 ? Wouldn't that put the main gun over the back deck? Sorry maybe I'm just misreading it. Also the rounds are side by side but requires separate doors to open. So left door first, pull 3 rounds and then close left door. Open right door and then pull 3 rounds. Yes the Turret does have to rotate alittle between the 2 but not that much

Well, not rear, but left side left and right of 9 o'clock if I recall.  But then again I am going off memory here, and I could be  remembering it wrong. 😳

Understood, let me know if you need anything to support this.

Yep, probably remembering it wrong, I think the two doors are side by side, right rear of hull, facing towards the rear. Looking in the manual it seems to be about 10 o'clock to access to through the loader's safety guard door. Still, we are talking about a difference of 1 o'clock, so not quite priority at the moment.

Ok thank you guys for checking into this. Appreciate it 👍

No worries, we will take a look at it when we are able (plenty of fish to fry). 🤓

Should be fixed for next update.

Update: As of version 4.259 Turret positioning is not corrected.

Yep, it seems we got some wires crossed when we merged in the fix, but it has been really fixed now for the next update (hopefully). 😳
