Description
A chassis you can use to build your tank, without having to worry about logic, gearbox, and electrics. Controllable by a single crew, comes with mouse-aim and neutral-steering automatic transmission. Powered by a 12 small cylinder modular engine, and equipped with heavy autocannon with 120 rounds of ammo.

Has decent frontal protection. Player Position is blast shielded to offer modest protection in the event of autocannon drum detonation.

Can be used to build for most medium sized diesel tanks with less than 90mm gun size
Some Possible Builds:

Crusader
Cromwell
Sherman
Panzer-III
Panzer-IV
Panther

The logic that changes engine starter is inside the steering microcontroller, if you trace back from the node where it says engine throttle output, you can find what controls it, and put it on its own logic node.

I think it starts automatically when the driver gets in the control chair, which is the control seat node's composite boolean 32.

More specifically, a lot of my things like the engine starter are assigned to buttons and keys and then have external input from the seat.

Is there a mod that is just the turret and engine microcontrollers by themselves? I was going to use them in my tank but not everything is labeled so I'm not quite sure how to modify it to my liking.

Could i use this for a build?

Likely run out of electricity so clutches let go. Might need more gear ratio on the electricity generator gearboxes, also check if i hooked up the generator right, maybe broke something when I was updating it, but should be easy to fix.

i have a problem. After driving for a bit the main clutch lets goo. meaning i goes into neutral for no reason, do you have an idea why?

@RED I did not add more than 4 gears because there is no gameplay reason, the engines in game have a wide power band.

But you can add more gears easily, in the transmissions microcontroller, the lower right section controlls what gear it is, with the logic being to increase gear ratio when engine is above a certain rpm.
