[h2]Dear Mechanics,[/h2]

Welcome to our one hundred and ninth development status update.

Today's development status is special. We publish it a day earlier than usual, on Thursday, to celebrate with you Veterans day, Remembrance day and Polish Independence day. We would like to express our sincere thanks to the fallen and war veterans around the world.

[h3]Ammo[/h3]



The tank gun 20-K was mounted in various early Soviet vehicles, and it was more than adequate in destroying German materiel. Rounds we'll be including in the game are BR-240SP armor piercing, being able to penetrate 73mm of armor at 10m, and the UO-243, a standard issue HE round.



The almighty KwK43 cannon of the King Tiger used evenly almighty ammunition. Our game will be having the PzGr 39/43, penetrating an almighty 237mm of armor at 10m, and Sprgr.43 HE as well, for softer targets.

[h3]M18 Hellcat[/h3]



A US armored vehicle will soon be added to the evergrowing TMS family - M18 Hellcat Gun Motor Carrier!



The vehicle was designed in 1942 and put up to production in 1943, Buick Motor Division produced around 2,507 of those, from July that year, to October of the next. The vehicle focused mainly on speed and armament, heeding no more attention than machine gun fire, which allowed the vehicle to reach ludicrous speeds. The armor all around reached from 4.8mm to 25.4mm (0.19-1.00 in).



Talking about its speed, we cannot skip the engine. While mere 19 tons helped to propel this tank up to 89km/h (55mph) on roads and 42km/h (26mph) off road, the main reason for it was the Continental R975-C1 radial engine, interchangeable with the C4 variant, giving it additional 50 horsepower. Paired with the radial 9-cylinder engine was the 900T Torqmatic automatic transmission, a rare commodity for tanks of those times.



Another focus was on the armament, and it went into the 76mm M1 cannon, an incredibly dangerous opponent to the German armor. It had the standard 76mm ammo choice: APHE, AP, HE, along with APCR and smoke rounds.

The suspension was a fairly standard one, single torsion bar per arm, along with shock absorbers for certain pairs of roadwheels. It gave a decent ride for the speed demon's crew.

Thanks for all the support and have a good weekend.

[h2]Dear Mechanics,[/h2]

Halloween is over, it's time to bring the Tank Mechanic Simulator world back to normal! We got a lot of positive messages from you regarding our spooky update, we're glad we managed to surprise you and make this week more interesting!

MacOS version will be able to play Halloween Update for a little longer (to 08.11.2021) due to early issues and later release.

We are also aware of the problem with excavation during the Halloween mission. We are currently working to fix it. Unfortunately, it turned out to be a bit more difficult than we anticipated and it may take a while. Make sure you have the Halloween mission accepted and you will be able to complete it in the future and get the coveted Maus along with the achievement once we solve this problem.

[h2]1.2.8 Update[/h2]

Fixed:

• Littlie Willie is in WW2 category. Reworked a bit list in Overview.
  
• Vickers E don't have rubber wheels
  
• Wrong icons for tools on Extraction
  
• PzKpfw III J engine part animation bug
  
• Maus incorrect exhaust position
  
• M4A3E8 Sherman incorrect localization for ammo box
  
• Moon error on few extraction missions (it was very small and reachable by player in some cases)
  
• PzKpfw II C fix for incorrect names of few parts in fuel system
  
• Extraction error that caused incorrect placement of tanks and in consequence inability to extract the tank
  
• Position of props spawning on extractions should now be better and not spawn outside mission area
  

Thanks and have a good one!
