The Sherman Calliope has some annoying bugs.
1. The stop button doesnt work when you ordered your Calliope to barrage, this killed my teammate many times.
2. Calliope was barraging and I saw that a 88 was shooting at it, I used the repairs but couldnt move while I have ''Onboard Mechanics''. I lost my vet 3 calliope.

You aren't supposed to move while barraging. It's not a bug.

Argument best suited for other types of artillery, like a howitzer but its fine the way it is

also happens when I order the barrage to a place which is out of range, I want to stop it but the calliope keeps moving till it gets in range and fires.

Yeah because, if you can't move while the ability is active it's one thing, but when you say it moves in range then the ability isn't activated and thus you should be able to stop it.

Its true. If you're out of  range and tell it to barrage an area, it will pretty much go on auto, you also can't stop the barrage once it starts, it'd be nice to be able to, all other artillery if you give the Halt command, it will stop the barrage

Dafuq man, don't ask for proof if you'll refuse it if it's not in your favor, logic fallacy for the bloody win.

it also happens when your calliope is turned to to wrong way so it needs to turn to the enemy first, I give stop order while its turning but it doesnt stop, it keeps turning and then fire.

oh and if your'e on a weird angle, this doublely comes into affect as you can't fire or move or tell it to stop, so even tho its not barraging, it'll sit there like iet is barraging and u can't move it.

Working as intended. Don't barrage your teammates infantry.  Grin

no ones saying that the calliope needs any fixing to make it better rocksitter, but it has issues especially the one where it bugs when ur on a slope and u can't move while it "barrages" but no rockets come out, that can be a huge game changer because you're not firing anything and you can't move. ONly thing that's needed to be done is be able to drop your barrage when you've started to fire, that's it thats all we're asking for, there's nothing to be gained by that but to be able to stop it just like all artillery pieces.

Happened while the sherman calliope was still turning to the enemy, I ordered it to stop but it kept turning and fired.

Hmmm...if it could be stopped while turning, but not after the barrage has begun, that wouldn't be so bad.
