This crew switch feature has to go! Gaijin did not tell anyone you cannot switch the crews back to their original slot. As you can see I’ve lost crew experience because of this My Tiger was a ACE crew in slot 2 but now it’s in slot 3 it’s only experienced and the other one the same. You can not switch the crews back they are permanently locked now crew 3 is where crew 2 should be and there is no way to switch them back now once they have been switched. If anyone knows if there a way to undo this let me know or are completely angry that Gaijin did not let anyone know this was permanent. No where does it say you can do it once or that crew is now locked or that the only crews you can switch is the first two unless this is a bug or did I miss something.
You can place the Tiger in crew slot 2 and it should still be aced. You just need to swap 2 & 3 like you did before, since the order shouldn’t affect experience. If it did affect experience, submit a support ticket.
Assign the Tiger to the crew that currently has the Befehlswagen. It is crew #2, which has the experience.
The crews are not locked in any way. You can still assign vehicles to them as you wish.
The only thing that has changed is that now you can sort them.
Yes, I appreciate the help only thing is I want my line up to go back to having both Tigers together I can’t even switch my Leo’s if I want too.
Have to go with a support ticket because it won’t even let me switch my Leo crews it’s stuck like the way you see in my screenshot.
Hmm…it works fine for me…
So you used to have a lineup with both Tigers before the update and the Tiger H was on slot 2. Which slot was the other Tiger on?
My line up was Tiger E in slot 1/crew 1 and the Tiger H slot2/Crew 2 and the Pz in slot 3/crew 3 but I can’t switch the Tiger H back to crew 2 or the Pz back to crew 3 and because of this I have to retrain my crew to ACE all over again because it is stuck like the screenshot. I can’t even switch any crew because it is stuck and won’t let me switch any crews for any tanks now this is for Germany. Hope that makes sense, if you notice by the screenshot it is not giving me the option to switch crews at all.
Maybe a bug because the number of crew slots in the lineup? Not many people use 9, coulda got missed. Do you have the same behavior in another country or mode where you’re not using as many?
Actually kinda scared to try in another country just in case I get stuck like Germany do you think clearing the cache would work?
Use naval to test :)
I’ll try and let you know appreciate the help.
So it’s possible the bug you’ve got has corrupted the preset file settings somehow. At this point to keep troubleshooting if it were me I’d go to the “^v Presets” button bottom-right and try deleting any or all of the ones that you’ve tried to manipulate since you got jammed up and maybe re-creating the tank one from scratch by creating a whole new Preset and then putting the tanks back into it in the order you like. Crew skills are likely fine and will be restored back to the vehicles as you’d expect, it’s possible just whatever datafile those presets are all stored in has gotten messed up.
I will attempt that I hope it works I’ll let you know thanks.
I feel lucky I haven’t tried to switch my crews around.
Did not work even the preset is locked and won’t let me delete.
My Tiger h1 should be in the Pz slot but it won’t let me change and because of that my tiger H1 is nolonger a ACE and neither is the Pz both are only experienced and had to retrain the Pz in order to get that.
Definitely gonna need to be reported as a bug in some form. That’s actually so messed up if this is indeed happening. Have you tried relogging and seeing if that makes a difference?
Yea, i tried that and tried to see if clearing the cache worked but nothing sent a report to support, we all know how that goes, and as far as a bug report tried that but no response, so, unless one of the big time devs or streamers have the issue probably never get fixed.
Bug report is the way to go, and you want to fully give as much info to them as possible.
Highlighting the loss of ace would be a real big one.
A video would be really good, so it can be no-cuts, just straight footage to replicate.
You can’t delete the current overlay in that interface, that’s always been the case. Maybe select a different overlay first, see if deletion is allowed.
