Summary

0004565: UH-1Y Door Mounted Machine Guns control.

Description

This is the second issue related to the UH-1Y that I wish to report here and this is about its door mounted Machine Guns. These guns in real life can either be manned by the door gunners or locked in the forward fixed position and fired by the pilot or co-pilot. The last possibility isn't implemented in RHS but I believe it could be implemented that way even because by default the door machine guns are placed on a forward fixed position.

My suggestion would be:
-> When pressing the manual fire button (which doesn't seem to be implemented on the UH-1Y yet) the machine guns would be fixed on the forward position (in case they aren't) and the pilot would fire (have control over) them. When "releasing" manual fire the guns would be controlled by the door gunners as "usual".

Notes
(0008448) reyhard (administrator) 2018-09-04 22:00	tried it and unfortunately it doesn't work well. Same as with BMP-3 machineguns, manual fire allows to control only 1 turret and there is no way to override easily it's direction. Tried to do some scripting solution but there was never enough time to get it polished enough so maybe one day...
