M1 57mm Crew Received Accuracy

Every AT Gun in the game's crew has a target_size (received accuracy) of 1 or smaller. Raketen is 0.85, Pak, Zis, and 6-pdr are all 1. However, the M1 57mm, which has a small crew size of four, has a target size of 1.25-- meaning an increased 25% received accuracy debuff.

Considering the M1 57mm is already the weakest mainline AT gun in the game, and has a small crew of 4 (as compared to the ZiS gun's 6), its target_size should be brought in-line with every other AT gun in the game. The weakest performing mainline AT gun shouldn't have to suffer an increased survivability debuff that none of the others do.

Even at 5 men, a target_size of 1 would still be preferable I think, it'd still be less survivable than a ZiS gun, for the weakest performing mainline AT gun in the game.

Since your 57 mm is 100% guaranteed to be wiped by PWerfer / Walking Stuka / Rifle grenade / flame nade / x2 Snipers, etc., the obvious solution is to recrew w/ Vet 3 Rifles.

Problem solved.

To add: does the weapon grant green cover to the crew?

PD: this reminds me of a certain bug that affected the Zis AT gun. And people said that it was to balance the 6 man crew

My controls weren't working
And if they were, you were playing dishonorably,
And if you weren't, you were playing without skill,
And if you were, it's not fun to play that way,
And if it is, you only care about winning.

Bible of Scrublord, Psalt 3:16.

If I'm remembering correctly there was a Cruzz post a while ago where he explained that the green cover wasn't working properly on the M1 57mm. In effect the gun was getting green cover from the sides but not the front.

I can't confirm if that is still the case but I haven't read anything about it being fixed in patch notes.
