What are the advantages of a tank, in general?

This tank version is not very mobile; it has heavy controls, and the tank itself doesn’t reach very high speeds. Its main advantage is its cannon. Because it is permanently mounted in the turret, its reloading is very fast, taking only 5 seconds. You have the same types of ammunition available as you could load in a manually operated cannon, including sub-caliber and cumulative rounds

Tank controls:

  • ‘W’ – Move forward
  • ‘S’ – Move backward
  • ‘A’ – Move left
  • ‘D’ – Move right
  • ‘K’ – Turn on/off the tank
  • ‘Space’ – Fire tank cannon
  • ‘Left arrow’ – Change ammunition
  • ‘Right arrow’ – Change ammunition
  • ‘HOME’ – Detach turret from hull
  • ‘Up arrow’ – Change tank gear
  • ‘Down arrow’ – Change tank gear
 

How to create your own tank?

Creating a tank is not easy and requires many things, but I will try to explain step by step how to do it. At the very beginning, you will need the following items:

  • Located Grand Prison
  • A large amount of weapons to defeat all the soldiers in it
  • Explosive weapons capable of destroying the tanks found there
  • Grinder
  • Welding torch
  • Oxygen cylinder
  • Minimum level reached: 82

When you’ve cleared the Grand Prison of enemies, and only the burning tank hulls remain, you can move on to the second part of the preparations. Using a grinder, cut off the wheels from the damaged tank hull, and then scrap the remaining part of the hull with a welding torch. In total, from the hull, you should get several tank wheels, an engine, electrical components, and other less important items. Do the same with the turret; first, cut off the barrel with a grinder, and then scrap the remaining part of the turret with a welding torch. The most important part of the turret is the barrel because you can make an 88mm gun from it. The other turret parts are optional; you can get armor plates, electronics, and other minor components

Now, take all these parts to the Fabricator Mk. II and create the turret and hull of your own tank

To join the hull with the turret, simply place the hull, and then drop the turret onto it from a height, which will lead to the connection, and your tank will be ready for further preparations

To be able to move with the tank, you need to refuel it with gasoline. Fill a fuel canister, and then right-click on the hull, which will fill the tank with fuel. (Shift-clicking the hull while holding a gasoline canister will drain the fuel from the tank). Finally, all that’s left is to arm the tank; you can load it with sub-caliber and HEAT rounds

How to put the tank back into your inventory?

It’s very simple, you need to have a wrench in your hand, press the Shift key, and right-click on the tank turret and hull. All ammunition, fuel, and tank durability points will be saved, so you can easily assemble it again later. Just remember to turn off the tank’s engine before folding it

How to repair a tank?

A tank can be critically damaged or slightly damaged. If the tank still has more than 0 HP, it can be repaired using a welding torch, an oxygen cylinder, and one armor plate, which will provide a slight health point regeneration for the tank. However, if the HP drops to 0, the tank will explode. In this case, repairing the tank involves using 3 armor plates to repair the turret and 4 armor plates to repair the hull. As you can see, repairing a completely damaged tank is much more expensive than regular maintenance, so try to repair it regularly
