The Alsvidr was designed to be both a type of Siege Tank and a Tank Destroyer. Its massive amount of forward firepower is suitable for destroying even the toughest opponents, while turrets on each side give a nearly full coverage to help protect against infantry. However, the fixed nature of the primary weaponry means that the Alsvidr is not meant to be a frontline tank, and should always be supported by Sleipnir or Arvakr tanks while it performs its duties at long range.

Hovering -------------------------------------------------------------

The Hovering process is all automated through sensors, so there is nothing you need to do control wise to maintain it. However, there are a few things to keep in mind:

The hovering works by using gravity to pull the tank downwards when it is too high, and engines to push it back up when it gets too low.

Gravity activates above 2m
Engines Activate below 1.5m - a ventral proximity warning will also pop up in the pilot's seat at this point

In the Pilot's seat, you can find several flight controls (view the screenshot above) to help you in specific situations. Most of the time, you should not need to use these controls.

- The tank has 2 gravity generators inside of it, pulling down on 5 artificial mass blocks. For best results, try to keep the pull on the tank at 2 Gs. If you are in an environment that already has Gravity, you can turn one of the generators off. However, for Zero-G it is recommended that you use both internal Gravity Generators.

- You can turn off the artifical mass blocks if you wish to fly away from a Gravitational environment.

- Similarly, you can deactivate either/both sensors which control the hover (the one that activates/disables gravity and the one that activates/disables the engines) for more precision control. However, this is not recommended.

**Keep in mind that there are no downward thrusters. All downward movement is made through gravity.**

**It is recommended that you do not try highly aggressive maneuvers with the tank, as it may overcompensate and fly away from the terrain. For best results, do your best to keep the tank level as you fly, and slow down when negotiating obstacles.**
