I have another suggestion to add animations, this time in all AT and AA canons.
It’s about the animations of reloading AT canons and changing magazines in AA canons. There could also be animations of turning the cranks to change the position of the gun.
What do you think?

Yeah, these small things are cool.
The bf 1 cannon emplacements were very cool with the reload animation.

Yes, instead of the circular progress bar make the character perform some action. Twisting a spanner when fixing an object, hitting with a hammer when building are some examples of having a character animation while waiting for the circular progress bar.
Speaking of progress bar, overheating of MG/HMG should be more noticeable from a distance via barrel glow or haze effect around the barrel while on a 12 seconds cool down. It would look cool and it visually broadcast the current state of a character or equipment to others, this would induce a more tactical gameplay from the extra information.
Can I use your idea with barrel overheating?
Sure.
Thank you for asking, but you really don’t need to, I don’t mind.
It’s my wet dream that bots, gun crews have reload animations, and that stationary machine guns have magazines and limited ammo.

Interesting idea with magazines.
Maybe not drum, but something that was really used was ammunition belts, usually 100 bullets.
For example, stations could have 5 such tapes and in addition there would be an animation of setting up a new one and reloading.
What do you think? Bratku.
Well, that’s how I see it as tapes in boxes.
I would also see something like the ability to replenish ammo for cannons from crates, or the ability to build a crate next to a cannon and increase its maximum ammo in a given position. Ziomuś.
