Regarding adding the ability for in-tank field repairs and introducing a new repair module for damaged tank vision optics

Optimized Tank Mechanics Suggestions (Complete 4-Point Version)

1. The tank’s anti-aircraft machine guns, turret machine guns, and hull machine guns are all internally mounted, placed right next to the tank crew within easy reach. It is unreasonable that players currently have to exit the tank to repair them after damage. Suggest adding the ability to repair all machine guns from inside the vehicle, including roof-mounted anti-aircraft machine guns, so the commander can perform nearby repairs without leaving the tank.

• yes
• no

2. Improve the tank fire suppression mechanic: Crew members carry fire extinguishers but cannot use them inside the tank. Suggest enabling the use of fire extinguishers within the cabin. When the fuel tank is detonated, crew members catch fire, or the engine catches fire, players should be able to put out the flames actively. Accessible engine components should also be extinguishable to slow the spread of fire and prevent instant crew death. It is unreasonable and frustrating that players are forced to exit the tank to put out fires when they already carry fire extinguishers.

• yes
• no

3. For all tanks with front-mounted transmission systems (Sherman, Jagdpanther, Panther, Panzer IV, Tiger), allow full repairs to the transmission directly from inside the crew compartment without exiting the vehicle. Only rear-mounted engines should require external repairs at the rear of the tank.

• yes
• no

4. Add a new damage and simple repair system for tank optics: Periscope lenses, driver viewing ports, and commander sights can be destroyed by enemy fire, cutting off the crew’s view of the outside. Allow players to easily replace and repair damaged optics with spare lenses, without consuming a repair kit.

Design purpose: To enrich infantry anti-tank tactics while staying historically accurate. In WWII, Soviet forces regularly used anti-tank rifles to disable tank optics and blind German armored vehicles, and snipers also targeted tank drivers. This suggestion is inspired by historical footage of a Soviet female sniper.

This is a German military instructional video teaching how to replace damaged periscope lenses.https://x.com/i/status/1798569952431288416

Alright. I get bombed by airstrikes nonstop all the time, and my front transmission gets wrecked. These components are all inside the vehicle anyway—we shouldn’t even have to get out. Why can’t we repair them inside the tank??

I really miss the days when you could shut off the engine from inside the vehicle. That bug lasted a whole year before they fixed it, it was such a good bug.

Now when my tank catches fire, I can’t repair the breech, and I can’t order the AI crew to get out separately and put out the fire either.
