Erik,

Is belly armor modeled? [:'(].

Perhaps including an Alpha layer to the MAP bmp which provides rough elavation contour lines which converts to a numeric value to adjust the vehicles orientation data ... ie pitch,roll,yaw ?

All in good fun Erik ... we love your game ... don't-cha know [:)].

Actually, yes. [;)]

I've seen stuff like this, but generally only in the initial setup phase before the "physics" have kicked in properly. Normally once that tank starts moving it should adjust to the terrain contours properly.

Ahh ... yes. That is what you're looking at ... the setup phase.

I'll check again during the battle and see ... I'd swear the physics hadn't kicked in ... but, I'll re-check. From the side view they look like lawn darts.[:)]
