Double Differential bug report
Double Differential
There seems to be some serious problems with the auto transmission using the 1st gear on Double Differential tanks
First of all, when holding A/D and then pressing S to downshift. It simply won’t go from 2nd gear to 1st, it goes instantly to Neutral from 2nd.
You can “fix” this by pressing W instantly (while still holding A/D). Then the tank will shift up to 1st and keep turning in the 1st gear.
However! You have to keep holding W too (while also holding A/D), while in other gears the tank keeps going with just A/D. If you let go of W while turning in 1st gear the tank goes to Neutral gear.
And to make it even more complicated: while you are turning in 1st gear (by holding W and A/D) if you change direction (so for example let go of A and hold down D, while still holding W) the tank shifts up to 2nd gear.
This is a huge problem since the turning radius of the 2nd gear is often around 2x as much compared to the 1st gear.
Dual Transmission
On tanks with the new Dual Transmission mechanic the 1st gear is completely unusable. If you stand still and hold A/D the tank starts turning and pretty much instantly shifts up to 2nd gear.
If during this you press S to shift down it will go down to 1st but instantly goes back up to 2nd.
