Multi Turret Academy News

Hey Commanders! Here comes the 0.9.83b update!
New Elite vehicles, naval gun adjustments, and garage feature upgrades. Let's take a look!

[h3]⭐ New Elite Vehicles[/h3]

• IS-2 (Elite)
  Equipped with additional track armor and improvised mattress armor, significantly improving explosion resistance.
  Also fitted with a commander's DShK machine gun for extra firepower!
  
• Tiger P (Elite)
  An additional 100 mm armor plate has been welded onto the front.
  It can now command a Ferdinand in battle.
  

[h3]💥 Object 103 / SU-100Y Adjustments[/h3]

• Default ammunition changed to "Semi Armour-Piercing"
  ○ Penetration: 20, Damage: 12
  This naval gun now delivers both incredible penetration and explosive damage!
  
• Added optional ammunition:
  ○ HE shell
  ○ Penetration: 4, Dmage: 20
  Historically used against submarines, this shell carries a larger explosive charge but has a shorter range.

• Refreshed the Firefly model.
  
• A new batch of vehicles now supports camouflage switching:
  BA-10, T-100Z, BM-8-24, SU-100Y, Ferdinand, Sturmtiger.
  More vehicles will gain this feature in future updates.
  
• Added a new shell skin category in the garage decoration menu.
  The Lunar New Year fireworks effect can now be freely switched, and more shell skins will be added in the future.
  
• The Boss list in the garage now also displays Elite enemies.
  
• The game will now run in the background during initial loading and automatically stop running in the background once loading is complete.
  A new option has been added in the settings menu: "Always Run in Background".
  
• Fixed an issue where amphibious vehicles could not float on water.

[h3]🎆 0.9.82 Update Notes[/h3]

0.9.81.1b
• Fixed an issue where weapon range became shorter when mounted on low-profile vehicles. Previously, weapon range dynamically changed based on hull height, which was confusing. Now it has been standardized — the same turret will have identical range whether mounted on a RC Maus or a Big Maus.
• Vehicles will now start losing HP at high altitude due to thin air.
• Fixed a bug where artillery elevation behaved abnormally when aiming at targets that were too close or too far.
• Fixed a bug where the Tracer prefix did not increase initial critical.
• Fixed a bug where the explosion radius indicator could be covered by ice surfaces.
• AI Valentine Gap Jumping Tanks will no longer jump around randomly.

Hey Commanders! Here comes the 0.9.81b update!
The jumping tank has arrived, along with several new rocket-equipped vehicles. Let’s take a look!

[h3]🚜 New Vehicle Arrives![/h3]

• "Valentine Gap Jumping Tank"
  
  
  
  • A brand-new Rank 2 special medium tank!
    
  • Equipped with 26 rockets mounted on both sides of the hull. Once ignited, they launch the entire vehicle into the sky, allowing it to leap over enemy defenses!
    
  • Might even land safely with a bit of luck…
    
• 🔥 New Mechanic: "Rocket Jump"
  
  • Ignite the rockets mounted on both sides of the hull to temporarily lift the vehicle off the ground.
    
  • This effect replaces the original engine boost acceleration.
    

[h3]⭐ New Elite Vehicles[/h3]

• T17E1 (Rank 4): Replaces the artillery command ability with 4 × 152 mm RP-3 "Tulip" rockets.
  
• Cromwell Mk. VI (Rank 5): Equipped with 4 "Tulip" rockets and track armor.
  
• Sherman Firefly (Rank 6): Equipped with 2 "Tulip" rockets, track armor, and a rather unusual dummy gun barrel.
  
• Additionally, when starting a new game, if you already meet the unlock requirements for an Elite Vehicle, the reward screen will now pop up immediately.
  

[h3]⚙️ System Adjustments and Fixes[/h3]

• All British vehicles can now select the German Gray camouflage.
  
• Continued attempts to fix the issue where captured enemies are still attacked by allies.
  
• The pause menu now displays the player's armor value.
  
• Fixed an issue where high-elevation vehicles would have their gun barrel stand upright when aiming at very close target.
  
• Fixed a bug where the garage camera would be shaken away by explosions.
  
• Fixed a bug where Elite P26/40 would try to appear too early in the first mission.
  
• Fixed an issue where the AOE indicator would not display underwater.
  
• Fixed a bug where medkits touched by ally units could not be picked up by the player.
  
• Weapon upgrade values are now rounded up, and each upgrade is calculated separately.
  For example: 1 penetration +20%, then +50% will now result in 3.
  
• The minimum value for penetration, damage, and reload time is now 0.5.
  

[h3]🧧 Special Note[/h3]
