Hi All,

Sorry for a silly question but I can't figure out how to change positions within a tank? I started the Supply depot mission, I'm sitting in Tiger and I can't figure out how to switch to gunner. Also is there an external view key, so that I can take a look at the whole battlefield while sitting in my tank?

Thanks!

PS: is there a key reference guide for this game ?

Scroll the wheel button of your mouse. A small menu will appear on the left side of your monitor, then scroll down or up depending on the position you want. Once reached, left click, et voila!

The key reference is in the game, in the option menu. yep

as gunny said for seat position... numb pad enter goes to 3rd view, and if your in a leadership position, numpad . goes to squad overview/tactical view.

Also by default, the shortcut key to turn in / turn out (open hatches) in the tanks is Z / X respectively.

To change positions, you have to be inside the tank, if you're in the commander's position, and turned out, you have to button back up first, then change. I assume this also goes for the driver, have to turn in before trying to switch.

The turrets on some of the tanks (PzKpfw IV comes to mind) won't rotate if your driver is turned out either. Can be annoying when you have multiple players crewing the same tank.
