Is it possible for the CCT to follow a tank, but not be totally up its ass haha. It follows way too close to my crocs and it gets jumbled up, it would be great if it just kept a tanks length of distance. I know I should be microing it myself, but sometimes I forget about it  Tongue

possible, but it would also drive right into the enemy units when you turn the followed tank around.

Which is why you'd reverse? And code in the CCT also reversing to keep the same distance from the targeted entity?

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's not too hard to micro a CCT, in fact, you can do much more useful things with a CCT than have it hover along behind...

After all, you've got an entire Cromwell's health worth of distraction material right there.

I mean I know Obama was the first one in EiR to get a card. and tbfh the Race card is pretty OP. but Romney has the K.K.K., those guys seem to camo anywhere. So OP units from both sides.
At the end of the day, however, stormtroopers finally got the anal invasion with a cactus they have richly deserved for years.

agreed and with the +5 sight in rca and +5 sight with tank commander, you have an effective scout that doesn't die to one decloaked pak hit. I love to use it to block panthers and tigers from going after my firefly, or running from it. The smoke is excellent and undervalued. I used to have 2 vet 3 ones now i can't even get one to vet 2 lol

I would strongly urge you not to "follow". I like to bind my CCT to hotkey 2 with my tank at hotkey 1 then you just work from here. CCT has a nice range and is a good spotter. Ideally you stick it behind hedges, buildings etc. When you click follow, the AI pathing tends to make it block a retreating firefly 90% of the time Tongue.
