3 months later smoke launchers are still next to uselss

[VoyoMayPL]

Smoke launchers on tanks still have almost no coverage.

Tank smoke launchers are quite anemic

[shot_2022.12.21_00.32.40] [shot_2022.12.21_00.33.35] Imo the pattern should be standardized (there is no point in it being RNG) and each smoke charge should be a bit bigger to create an actual wall of smoke. Now it’s meh.

The tank smoke SHELLS have decent coverage, but the smoke grenade launchers I could agree could use a bit of a buff.

[SilentHaven]

I agree. Especially with how slow firing they are. They need to have just a bit wider radius and be just a bit taller.

[GuardianReaper0]

You actually just gave me an idea… does someone happen to know how they were designed? What I mean is did the shell actually stick in one spot or did it kind of roll like a hand tossed grenade?

I ask because what if they made the smoke duration longer, and made the projectile able to roll, therefore spreading it around more rather than just a straight increase to size?
This would potentially let it cover even more area.

[SilentHaven]

I think programing the physics for that would be more difficult than just making the smoke effect larger.

I imagine they were able to bounce and roll on impact IRL however.
