So, to be clear to both you and @Necronomica at the same time.
The generator for the hydraulic systems in the hull give power feed through the slip ring, to all the hydraulic-electric elements that are in the turret.
Thanks! ^^

Anytime <3
So we’re back at square one, if the slip ring is hit the T-series is a dead duck. If there’s no power, the hydro-electric generator doesn’t get power, the turret can’t rotate or move vertically, no thermals etc. The autoloader wouldn’t be able to load either since it needs vertical stabilization to work
So then without that electric supply the vertical and horisontal drives can’t work then?
Well, kinda. There’s no proof of backup power or batteries in the turret. (Not even mentioning how hard it would even be to hit the slip ring)
Sounds right to me.

I did read there are manual cranks for the autoloader, I’m sure it has manual gun controls but every tank does

So for the mechanics of the game the abrams/leos/T-serries should then all only have that small center circle (of the bottom of the basket) as a vulnerable area that disable turret drives and not the entire bottom plate as with Abrams/Leos currently.
I’d also yet again like to clarify to both of you, those are the stabilization systems, they may have totally separate ‘actual’ turret drives for it, but it’s highly unlikely.
It does
Yeah, only the actual system and wiring/hoses should be modeled for every tank IMHO.
The thing no one talks about was the first vehicle to get it to test the waters was the CT-CV 105 HP, no one made a complaint, this happened :P

Just remove the mechanic for everyone, there’s really no point. The biggest problem is the Abrams/Leo/HSTVL (all 11.3+ us vehicles) have the turret basket modeled as the turret drive. It’s really stupid. The amount of modeling Gaijin would have to do for every other MBT is just counter productive. Revert the baskets to before they were added and call it a day

It’s jank but technically doing what they want it to do, they just have to balance it with the other tanks.
They should have added them all at the same time or not at all
Yeah, from a realism point of view, it’s a massive W, from gameplay, it’s just horrid
It’s not even realistic dude, the whole basket including the seats for the gunners, commanders, loaders are considered the turret drive lol
Yeah, like I said a sec ago:
Personally I don’t think they should. It’s FN terrible as an Abrams and in the RDFLT. I can’t even imagine how much of a paper tank the t series would be after getting the slip ring modeled
I wouldn’t really agree, they do have a point of there being to much empty space and the risk for just “through and through” shots is to high, but i personally think that modeling the baskets as drives isn’t the best idea. It would be better to have the hydraulics and electrics modeled as it would effectively result in the same effect in practice but would be accurate to IRL so way less players would complain (there would obviously still be complaints, there always is… but less).
Not really practically possible, there are to many vehicles for it to be reasonable to do like that.
No, the small details isn’t part of the damage model, look at the main post. (a lot of players have asked for a toggle in X-ray to show damage model instead of the visual model, it would help dispel rumors and make things a bit clearer for players as well).
