Move deployable smoke from gunner to driver

Deploying smoke means most of the time that there is a really dangerous threat that needs to be countered by covering yourself in smoke so that you can get the hell outta there, and switching from AP to HEAT to Smoke takes too long in my opinion.

Also, the driver usually leads (99% of the time when I play PR) and can quickly decide when to deploy smoke without having to shout at his gunner

Switching to smoke will make the gunner have to wait for a few secs b4 the AP/HEAT is loaded again, I dunno what its like in real tanks but I doubt deploying smoke will make the AP/HEAT recharge

It can be moved to the left mouse button, although that means removing horns on APCs

Downside: lamers will have a new way to piss ppl off

But ye, just a lil tweak imo, ofc I dunno how much trouble it will cost the devs.

thumbs up for the devs, Ive been in love with this mod since it still was a "mini"mod :D

Well it is realistic, the TC does control the smoke grenade launchers in all the MBTs I know.
