Hi!

What happens if an ability that disables turret rotation, e.g. Target Weak Point, is used on a vehicle that has a static turret, e.g. a SU-85? Just a plain old waste of munitions or is there a hidden benefit?

IIRC the tank's gun can move a little without the tank having to move. This gets stuck. Im not totally sure if this stops the gun from firing, i think not, try using attack ground.

Stug-G TWP does NOT disable turret rotation (despite what the graphics might trick you to believe).

Instead, it completely disables the main gun from firing at all for 15 seconds.

Any possibility of getting this down to 10 seconds? 15 is way too long.. My wet dream would to make it last only 8.

I'm pretty sure it only disables autofiring for the tank since it can't track the tank. IIRC I once got my comet to fire at the stug after having it turret locked. I just had to tell it to fire when the turret was facing its target. It definitely didn't take 15 seconds for that either. Perhaps I'm getting it confused with the puma one? Are they different?

I don't see it say 15 seconds anywhere. Is that in the game files or something? "disables main gun"
It definitely stops it from firing on its own but when I manually told my comet to fire when the turret lined up properly it did fire. Perhaps it was a bug tho
