Splash Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Another feature I would like to see is individual unit numbers showing up on vehicle hulls. Just to use a US example, the CO's tank is 66, 1st platoon's leader tank is 11, etc. Instead of all tanks being numbered by the default decal. This would make it easier to ID the vehicle visually without having to refer to the map.I, of course, don't know what eSim has planned, but I've personally believed since the introduction of decals a few versions back that this sort of individual unit numbering was in the pipeline.It's a feature, after all, that's been present in some sims for over a decade (think IL-2).There are certainly complications, as Mark points out, but I like to think they're not insurmountable. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panzer_Leader Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 And the Scimitar too :bigsmile:Yes, if the BGTI upgrade to Scimitar brings 50x zoom like M1A2 SEP and a laser range finder linked to Blue and Red Force tracking (or whatever the specific capabilities of ComBAT are), per this post http://www.steelbeasts.com/sbforums/showpost.php?p=248056&postcount=10, then I'm all for it! :thumbup::-D:thumbup: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rotareneg Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 Very minor suggestion: Use a logical date format (like Year-Month-Day) for the screen shot folders which can be sorted alphanumerically, unlike the current "Ye olde" Month-Day-Year format. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Castle Inn, Little Bytham at a time of your choosing. But rather than pork pies, how about fish and chips? The pub calls their cod and chips dish 'Whale on a Plate - which is a fair description. Nice local beers too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marko Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 Not sure how viable this request is. but it is a wish list.LoLSome Asian made Tanks and IFV's like the type -90. type -10. K1-A2. K2 Black Panther.And of course some PLA types namely the type -99. I would bet it would be hard to get theRelevant information on them. well here's hoping the PLA buys official SB licences.Are small community would get very large very quickly.

Mirzayev Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 This is a fairly minor request, but enabling cycling between the Search and Stare modes on the M1A2's CITV would be nice. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Retro Posted March 1, 2014 Members Share Posted March 1, 2014 I am wondering why people think that this is a good idea.. see also One wrong move by the driver and you have a squished squad.. one RPG fired at the tank (a bullet magnet I would think), same (at least they don't have ERA mounted ).. the tank firing - the squad being deaf and/or dead (should they happen to stray into its fwd sector).. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CR2_Commander Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 During our last range package in Macedonia before driving into Kosovo, a few Irish Guards were evac'd because of burst ear drums. When asked how it happened response was they were a little bit to close to a CR1 when it fired. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rotareneg Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 The ability to set waypoints in the 3D world would be cool for the mission editor and planning phases.One way I could see it working would be just to add a small crosshair (so we can see where we're aiming) and then allow lasing to put a laser mark on the 2D map like you get on lower realism settings when playing a scenario. Then add a new function to the right-click pop-up menu on the 2D map that adds a waypoint at the current 3D view location and aimed at the laser mark. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
