The FV4005 Remastered

This is a complete remake of the FV4005 I uploaded, including complete tracks and autoloader. I have introduced a new ammunition switching function in this version of the tank. Since I recently purchased a new PC and it's much easier to run a larger machine, I didn't put a limit on the block count and included more details.

Important Features

• Two types of shells are provided by default (AP/HE)
  
• Extremely short reloading time
  
• Rugged ammo rack that can easily handle off-road and some collision
  
• Spam proof safety lock
  
• Holding the trigger button can shoot continuously

Control Manual

• Moving : Arrow keys
  
• Boost : R-Ctrl (Have chance to damage tracks)
  
  
• Fire : O
  
• Switch Ammo Type : U
  Note: You can see two timers on the side of barrel when aiming, upper one shows reload status, lower one shows ammo switching status, if they are not red means you are ready to fire.
  
  
• Aiming : I/J/K/L
  
• Camera: F
  
  
• Reload:Full auto, Press R to view ammo distribution

366 m/s for HE

Note: To make the AP shell more damaging, it contains a metal jaw so it does not go straight through the target. For higher velocity, this shell has a larger dispersion, while the HE shell has rotational stabilization and is very accurate, but the range is not as far.

Customization

By understanding how the autoloader works, you can design and carry variety of shell yourself, the capacity is 12 rounds, the types of shells that can be easily implemented are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 12.

Simply put, this autoloader works by firing > move the barrel away > rotating the drum > retracting the barrel,
when 12 shells are all of the same type, you need to rotate 30 degrees each time. By rotating 60 degrees each time, we achieve two unique track for 2 types of ammo.

How to rotate specific angle using hinges?
First we must understand the meaning of the speed setting of the hinge, 1.00 x means 100 degrees per second, so if we want to minimize reload time (without destroying the drum) by setting it to 2.00 x, we need it to rotate for 0.15 seconds (for 30 degrees target), and you will find out this isn't working, after few cycle it will overshoot or undershoot, this is because in Besiege, the logic operation frequency is 50 Hz, while the physical operation frequency is 100 Hz, so if the timer's setting is not divisible by 0.02, you introduce uncertainty, so the better way to do this is first set the timer then change hinge speed accordingly.
