This tank has a crew of 5 with a loader.
My loader has both loader perks.
But when changing the ammo type after a shot, the reload time will start all over again.
This I can only fix by giving the commander loader perks (just like when there is no loader).
But that should not be necessary with a seperate loader present?
When I do the same with this tank, which also has 5 crew with a loader, all perks work fine.
My loader has loader perks and the reload time correctly does not start over again after a shot.
The commander has no loader perks.
So this tank works fine.
So what is the situation with the Sherman II loader/commander perks?
There is an issue with sherman tanks. At least for this squad :
The loader will always prioritize to switch his place with the bow machine gunner. You can ser that in the training field, pay attention to your loader, he will switch place with the MG gunner as soon as you spawn.
A way to circumvent this bug is to have both the MG gunner and the loader with the loaders perks.
Indeed that is what happens.
My loader and gunner are in their correct places, with their correct perks, but they change seats anyway.
Giving the loader perks to the gunner or commander βfixesβ the unwanted result of that.
