I have this very strange problem:

I can make the tank "boardable", but if i tell one of my men to board it, it is not recognised as a vehicle... only when i have boarded the tank, and disembarked it, i can then order my men to board it.

People sitting in an M1Abrams for instance cannot lock on this tank.
I can drive the tank in the middle of an enemy tank platoon without them shooting at me (AI).

I have looked thru all possibilities, it is not in the config.cpp, that is all in order (side TWest, threat etc), so it has to be in the model somewhere.
But i cannot find anything wrong!

Suma, please tell me where to look?

i found it .... the config had an entry under the vehicles section
lasertarget = true;

which defines the tank as a target, not as a tank...

DUH, how stupid can i be? http://www.flashpoint1985.com/ikonboard301/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif
