Main gun tank sights.
In the video of igromir we see that when a different range of the sights gets dialed in that the recticle stays in the centre.
Like the sniper scope shouldn't the actual reticle move up and down depending on the range dialed? Like the picture below, or did the pzIV have a different more advanced system? http://images.yuku.com/image/gif/33d...b11565e813.gif

This has been bothering me for a while now and this was thread closely attached to it. If I remember correctly there was some delay in T-34's tower turning. When the gunner stopped pushing button that made the tower turn there was a little dealy before the turning actually stopped. Is this going to be implemented into ROHOS? Would also be little balance for inferior P4's favor.
Then again, I think that every tank that time had some dealy...

Actually, stupidly, Zets is quite right... another little piece we haven't got in yet. And my writing in the very old guides was... wrong.
And there is "lag" in the power traverses on many WWII tanks - both in accelerating and stopping. Gunners would switch to manual traverse for fine tuning...

According to what I've been explained by a guy who actually works on WW2 tanks, atleast the hydraulic traverse system used on the Panther & Tiger was accurate enough to be used for fine tuning in traverse alone. According to him you can vary the speed of the traverse by applying different amounts of pressure to a pair of pedals mounted at the gunners feet used to control direction & speed of turret traverse. Raising and lowering the gun ofcourse still required manual operation of a handwheel.
Not sure about the electric system used in the early Panzers, or the hydraulic one used in Russian tanks. But apparently the systems used in the Sherman & T-34 were none-variable one speed only, requiring manual operation for fine tuning aim. Last edited by Unus Offa, Unus Nex; 11-05-2010 at 10:53 PM.
