If your in the Grant and you load HE for the 75, and switch to the 37 mm and Load AP, it will load AP for the 75 as well, so if jump back to the 75 expecting to find it still loaded with HE it will not be…
Can this be fixed?

Shouldn’t it be under bugs report “further balance and development”
Well I’m assuming it’s a bug, but I don’t really know maybe it was designed with this intentionally?

On PC, open ‘Controls’ and select ‘Vehicles’ tab. You need to find ‘Switch ammo type for secondary gun’ there. If it’s on different key-bind from ‘Switch ammo type’ it’s possible to choose ammo type for each gun separately.
‘Turret 2 shoot’ controls firing 75mm gun, it can be separated similarly.

Is there a way to aim the turrets independently?
Also, while we’re at it - is there anyway to swap shells in the barrel without firing? Whenever I try to swap shells, it simply changes the next shell to the selected type, but doesnt swap out the current shell.
TIA!
Number 1 slot is commander that basically aims with both 37mm cannon and 75mm cannon at the same time (within their aiming angle limits), Number 2 slot controls 37mm cannon so if you want to control just the top turret you must switch to tanker that sits on this slot, then there is Number 4 slot that controls only 75mm cannon, so again switch there to control this cannon.
Once loaded you can not switch the ammo type, you must fire it first, you can switch it to other type during reload, but it will reset your loading progress again (not desired for long ass loading time of 122mm cannon in IS-2).
BUT
There is a perk for tanker that says it all “Change the type of ammo without losing reload progress (loader perk)”, again only works during reload and if the guy is sitting on loader slot, never used it myself so don’t know if it even works in tanks with smaller crew without loader slot.

Thanks!
Follow-up question: How come the commander can’t stand in the copula for the Grant/Lee? It’s a major unexplained drawback.
Nevermind! Fixed in the update!
