No tracers for PKM?

Ok, after some people complained about the accuracy of the pkm the other day I decided to test it out.

The first thing i noticed was that there are no tracers with this kit anymore! I also watched some other insurgents shoot the pkm and no tracers came out.

Is this intentional? I think its really important for an mg kit to have tracers.

I tried the militia PKM today and it had tracers

so only the insurgent PKM is lacking

Checked out the code,

Looks like all the projectiles used by insurgent weapons aren't using tracers. I'm not sure if this was done on purpose or not so I'll ask around.

Well, I would not want to use tracers if I am mainly ambushing enemy. It will give out your position faster.

Done on purpose.

Yeah it's kinda hard to ambush people if you have a nice green line that can be traced back to your weapon.

EDIT: I really should read above...
