This just happened to me 30 seconds ago. I was in one tank and I was mowing down infantry while the other tank on my team was in front of me. Some of my bullets hit it so I got kicked.
Fix it.

[Error] Shooting friendly tanks counts as friendly fire and kicks you from server

Wait a second. Shooting a friendly counts as friendly fire. Where exactly is the bug?

Mowing down infantry implies the MG. So he is MGing inf, some of his bullets hit a friendly tank and he gets kicked for teamwounding the tank. That is the bug, correct?DIRTY_THUG said:
Yes I forgot to specify that I was using the MG. I just got so pissed after that happened and made a quick post on here.
It's happened to me as well. Admittedly I was shooting at the tank on purpose as it does no damage to the crew inside or the tank (where I was shooting, at least), but I was kicked anyways. A tad annoying as it can happen by accident as the OP points out.

Somewhat similar to what happens in RO I. MG a tank filled with bots and they spam the "Friendly Fire" voicechat as if they are getting wounded.

Thats likely because behind the scenes RO1's tanks had a health counter, I used to know the command to return the exact health. Shell bounces caused minimal damage, and its likely that Bullet hits caused a fraction of a points worth of damage as a way of triggering some kind of suppression effects. ( tanks had ~800 health in Ost ).
It's likely that Ro2 may be working with some similar mechanics under the hood.

I put a HE in a friendly and got kicked automatically. You should be kicked at 3 teamkills, not 1. Why this importance if your playing tank ? Only the bots in the tanks should fire ? Indeed it should be fixed. A teamkill is ONE teamkill, you shouldnt get kicked from ONE, 3 is ok, but one .. come on.
