I am just wondering why when, im involved in tank engagments as the tank commander,
the gunnery engages other armoured targets with the machibe gun instead of the main
gun which always results in my tank being knocked out?

It tends to help if you tell the gunner to use the main gun/sabot rounds/heat rounds.

Not had much chance to play with the armour in ArmA II since my computer has just konked out so I could be wrong, though I strongly doubt it...

Hi, i as commander don't know how to order the AI gunner to switch to the main gun, what i do is the same that i did on the ArmA; switch to driver and change the gunner's selected weapon, as driver. But i neither can't switch between the coax and main gun as gunner... i've a similar issue when switching between fire modes as infantry; some times i can.. and other times i can't... sometimes, what happens most of the times (like the 85% of the times...) is that it "get's jammed" in Burst mode (in the M16A4s case) and i can only switch between Burst & Hand Grenades (Burst, H Grenades & M203 with the M16A4+GL) and same with the M4A1s, it use to get stunk in Full Auto and i can only switch to hand grenades or the M203, sometimes if i depleet the whole magazine, it allows me to switch back to Singe Shot; but not always. This happens to me too with the OA and also happened to me with the ArmA2 demo, never with the ArmA. The keyboard works, as far as i know... i use very much those keys on other games and i don't have no problems at all even when this keyboard have a huge ammount of tarmaq and dust and have standed well more than 50 punches over the years, vodka on it... beer... coke... coca-cola too... food... and i bet that the next time that i've to put the keys in it's place after punch it again, i may even find some pubic hair... . I don't know what's worng with the ArmA2 and the OA. Let's C ya

Hold ctrl to give orders to the gunner smile.gif

So, ctrl-f to change weapons, and ctrl-lmouse to fire.

Haven't heard of that issue with rifles before... don't know what could be causing it... unsure.gif
