Re: Vehicle damage system
The issue with that is that doing that would make it impossible for NATO autocannons to track opposing APCs. I've asked to make it a more dynamic thing along the lines of APC can take 11% and be fine, IFVs 20% and lastly tanks get 34%, or to simply make the Russian tin cans finally tin cans in order for NATO ACs to be able to track but Mats doesn't think that should be the case so it's not.

Got "LAT'ed" on the side (T90) and got tracked. Health was full and after hit, dropped around ONLY 20% and got tracked.

I only know that I know nothing. Só sei que nada sei. Sólo sé que no sé nada. So solo di non sapere nulla. Tantum scio me nihil scire. Je sais seulement que je ne sais rien. Tiedän vain, etten tiedä mitään. Ich weiss nur dass ich nichts weiss. Ek weet net dat ek niks weet nie. Wiem tylko, ?e nic nie wiem. Heoi ko ahau anake e mohio ana kahore au e mohio. Ngiyazi kuphela ukuthi angazi lutho.

Re: Vehicle damage system
The system is actually pretty fair overall safe for some outliers like your incident.

Re: Vehicle damage system
tracking chance and gun disabling chance should be exchanged in their probabilities.
currently the higher gun disabling chance enhances RNG outcomes in (mainly APC) armor on armor engagements. just being suddenly unable to shoot for no reason is no fun.
also the lower tracking chance makes lat gameplay unsatisfying by letting enemy APCs escape way too often.
this makes gamey APC rushing tactics more attractive and successful. used those myself already to great success.
as i experienced it, the history of tracking went from one extreme to another.
first APCs almost always got away.
then every hit tracked vehicles (which was shite).
then it got reversed.
then we got the new damage system with some of its flaws recognized immediatly.
those were toned down in a subsequent update but the underlying gameplay flaw is still not fixed.
tracking should allow to convert a "tactical victory into a strategic victory" for the INF. on the other hand a tracked vehicle with its turret still up can be successfully defended by its crew and getting it repaired adds another layer of gameplay.
gun disabling should basically not exist (in its RNG implementation) from a gameplay standpoint (but i guess has its place to a certain degree in this game).
besides that i like how the other functions got detached from the main guns status.

Re: Vehicle damage system
Should be about 50-50 imo. Once you run away, other time you are bogged down and defend. From a gameplay perspective.
