Simple Tank for BeamNG.drive

Its a simple tank, not much else to say. Use it to Crush things, use it to shoot things. That's about all it does.

This is just a little proof-of-concept I made for a tracked vehicle. The idea is not originally mine, I remember seeing a short video a few years ago of a tracked vehicle using slide nodes driving around on gridmap. I couldn't find the video again, nor do I know who made it, so I improvised everything else. If you made the video or know who did, let me know.

Controls:

Turn the turret with F and H, aim the gun up and down with T and G.

Fire the gun with Spacebar. You get 20 shots.

Lock the turret in position with /, this is to prevent it moving slightly while driving around with the gun stowed.

Drive the tank with the arrow keys. It cannot turn on the spot, not yet anyway.

Issues

Occasionally, the tanks wheels can get stuck to the tracks. Usually happens when driving over jagged objects. Can usually be fixed by reversing the tank and continuing. It can also get stuck in other cars when crushing them.

The gun is somewhat inconsistent, and has no visual impact effects. Long range aiming can be difficult, but the gun is accurate.

These issues are not likely to be fixed as if I ever want to make a proper, high-fidelity tank I would start from scratch. It may be used as a base for future weapons system testing.

Feel free to mod and play with this as you see fit, but please ask before releasing a mod based on it.

Shells sometimes do not detonate hitting light vehicles unless they hit something like the engine or a dense part of the body. When this happens they do reduced damage. and detonate when they hit the ground on exit.

Small Update

Slowed down projectile speed around 30% to improve clipping issues
