    There is going to be some people that will dispise me for doing this, but this needs to be done.

    Saberwulf and my self found out by "playing" with the different types of armor. This only can be done on the AFV and nothing else.

    What is going on:
    Alright this is a very simple bug. When damage is taken to the AFV's "front" the damage is taken to the left side armor (also known as the "drivers side" in America)

    First for you to better understand this bug, make a AFV with full plain armor all the way around. Have another person shoot directly in the middle fo the grill. Take note where the damage is done. Now make a second tank with zero armor plates in the front and back, but keep the armor plates on the sides. Take alook at the armor shown in this screen shot.

    Now have the same person shoot the middle of the grill on the AFV. You should notice even with zero armor plates in the front, that the damage is still taken to the left side if the tank. Now this can do done on the rear of the tank also, same princaples.

    Now there is another bug on the AFV that has to do with the model. Can anyone find it? I will be posting the other part in later posts. I want to see if anyone can spot why the first bug works. (the "second bug" basicly is the same as the first. But this has to do with the model. That is why the first bug is happening. Hint: pay special attention to the armor)

    Lets compare the 2 light tanks

    The nf tank is a big box that just about the same size all around

    The be tank is big in the back and side but small in the front so it might be the hitbox are not setup right for the be tank

    very close, but no cigar. (close on "hitbox")

    The plare armor is the "same" on both teams, in the aspect of how it surrounds the tank.

    Remeber my hint: "armor"

    the next clue...:"location"

    Lemmie guess, there's a front section of armor that counts as part of the side. I've seen this problem before. I'm driving away from an enemy and he's pounding me in the rear armor, I have full rear armor but my front is getting destroyed because a small section counts as my front armor for some reason.
