Where did you get the official information that those paints are allowed? XP/BP is still unofficial so we players seem to make up the rules all by ourselves. I am just copying info I found spread around on the Forum. "I don't know if this is your mistake or a general misconception because I see it a lot." Is this your own opinion or do you have more and other information? On point 2. you mention the Generalissimo is using Hornet M0. XP 's are IMO simply not the place for Hornet and Wasp M0 's! They are not even mentioned in the XP paint lists I know off. Most XP players even the low-ranked who use M1 hulls won 't be pleased with such a slow M0 hull in their team. Prodigi: no On point 1. you could have a point with Digital on a Wasp M1. To be honest: I don 't have a clue. As said before first I need more confirmation and this coming from multiple sources. Btw. it 's only a minor offence, IF it is one. So I leave it up to the players themselves if they want to use Digital on a Wasp M1.

Read the whole topic again, there are more: (don 't know how to post the rank symbol, sorry for that) From Page 1 and further: I.D0M, Cigara9393, Hazel-Rah, zain555, hogree etc.

Wanted to cheer you up a bit... ;) You take the blows on this topic, some should have a lot more respect for that.

All I hear is a bunch of whining and complaining addicits, because the doses they normally can use are getting diminished. These are just normal withdrawal symptoms. :D "Breaking the Habit" performed by the Devs question: is it really so hard to play with less drugs if EVERYBODY drugs less?

Ok :)

No problem, this one was first: http://en.tankiforum.com/index.php?showtopic=221510&page=18&do=findComment&comment=3927714 ;)

No, I would like to know without even really watching, just from the corner of my eye: 1. If the supply is active: green 2. How far the cooldown is, just like it is now but instead of grey : red (or orange) 3. If the supply is inactive and ready to activate it is: grey This way you don 't really have to look at the supplies. As you have to do now, due to the minor difference between the two greys. From the corner of your eye you will be able to see if the red has almost disapperared, so you can decide to reactivate that supply again or leave it inactive/grey. The same counts for the active green supply.

Great update! It will mean that mindless drugging is something from the past. Finally! Don 't feel any pity for the ones who like to battle lower-rankers with drugs: no more shooting gallery. btw. I hope there will be a solution for the high-ranked players who like to have drugwars amidst their own high ranks. Technical it works fine, but the minor difference between the light and dark grey makes it too complicated in my view. When you are in a battle you want to focus on the fight, not if the drugs are "dark" or "light" grey. Why not make the cooldown time red so you will instantly know when the red dissappears you can activate the supply. The green for an active supply is clear enough. Grey will still be perfect for the non-active supplies.

I suppose a Generalissimo hooked on heavy equipment, who one day decides to give that small drifty thing and that nasty Star Wars gun a try :P

Red paint was also discounted....too bad.

Not much: a Railgun M2 on alt for future BP and.... a Smoky M1 :wub: on a practice-account to put on a Hornet M0. First thing I buy when I 'm Colonel: Smoky M2!

There was already some discussion about this in the "Let 's Dicuss XP Battles!" topic. Will definitely need more confirmation before I change it in this Guide. XP is still unofficial and compared to the Prodigi equiped, anything else than Hornet/Wasp-Rail M3 combo 's you will meet in many spoiled XP 's, a 35-30=5% exceeding with Digital of the unofficail XP paint rules seems like a minor offence. In the end it 's your own decision.

^^ Goddessmode_ON...the adult version? :D

It might work well on a CTF Map like Silence, though the negative comments of those Generalissimo 's make me wonder...so I better step back because I almost never play this Map. (my own bad remembrance and dislike from Silence comes from an even older Silence where you "lined-up" on the big ramp to be slaughtered by the "higher ground" team one after one, at least that 's how I experienced it) I personally don 't feel a tunnel will add a lot to a DM Map like Polygon. Which is and should remain a fighting pit in my view. The "spider-hole" in the center adds already quite enough diversity.

I suppose the tunnels. This makes the gameplay a lot more diverse! Might even start to like this Map! :D

Did some edits on the original topic. - also included a picture of an "Arrow keys + QE keyboard" - added a sidenote of WASD cameraview combined with turretrotation - minor improvements

Customizeable controls are already there in a way: Tanki Online has already got three! ( PU/PD, [ ] and QE ) options to use your camera. ;) It could be that in your case with a smaller laptop keyboard the Page Up and Page Down keys are close at hand. So that you only need to move your fingers to press them and can keep your hand still. In that case you simply got another perfect set up! With a regular (Windows) PC keyboard, the distances between the keys become larger. In that case the Page Up and Page Down keys are most likely in a "worse" position. Arrow keys can be a perfect solution on a crampy laptop keyboard because your fingers get more "room". As long as you can ten finger type on whatever keyboard: you can also use WASD.

There is no problem. It 's just a topic about Tank Controls. Especially a beginner would benefit in my view if he/she wouldn 't use Page Up and Page Down for the cameraview. My advice is to use the camera with Q and E for both Arrows and WASD. That 's the main purpose. If a Tanker reads this, is interested he might try QE and maybe he would find it easier to control than PU and PD. Do you use Page Up and Page Down? Well, if you have no problems with them, simply keep using them! It 's just a suggestion: the title "Stop using Page Up and Page Down" is only there to draw some attention. Besides I 'm interested how other Tankers use their keyboard. If they use WASD or Arrows, what they use for cameraview, if there are [ ] users out there etc.

Ok blue, could you be a little more specific how you "lively" assess the battlefield? Which keys do you press for cameraview and turretrotation (simultaneously?) And if you press cameraview and rotation what fingers do you use?

:D ...and to make matters worse: with their own spines.

No, but does that mean they are wrong? Question for you Bluelight1209 (sended a PM also): can you easily use your cameraview while rotating your turret? (by doing this you can get a really quick scan on the current battle situation, pretty usefull in my experience) With WASD with QE you certainly can, because cameraview QE is controlled by the lefthand and turretrotation < and > by the righthand. In the meantime I can keep on driving because my left middlefinger is always controlling W (forward) and S (backward) and besides that it 's easy to lift my indexfinger from E to D so I can make a right turn and the same ofcourse for my ringfinger that can make easy transitions from Q to A to make a left turn and vice versa.

Could be they aren 't Hy6-deactivated? Hopefully GodMode-ON will fix this soon!

Can 't wait any longer for that Smart Cooldown! Cool down? No, hurry up! Want to test that stuff! :) More gamebalance, more tactics and last but not least: more Fun for almost Everyone! Poor, poor 24/7 2345 and when almost killed always pushing 1 druggers....so sad....sob.... (and finally you will need to activate at least some brain cells when using supplies :P )

I do understand that completely, it 's just that I enjoy to dive into the (technical) background of Tanki Online. Besides that I do feel a game should advice the best control options right at the start, without players having to find out those on their own. Btw Nature happens also to be one of my interests, so who knows I might even make a topic about the Flora that can be found spreading around the Maps in TO! :P

^^Thanks Hogree. Reading your educated opinion about this post, makes me at least feel better about it! :) A much better feeling than the reply you get from some Hy6 who uses Prodigi in XP 's and worse is even proud on that. And I 'm not talking about Xx-Like a boss-xX or Stinger911. Read your own guide "Mastering your Tanki Keyboard" before and liked it a lot. Just read it again and found out that I missed your view on WASD with [ and ] as camera keys. Option number 3 in my post. (still possible copyright infringement: don 't sue me please...) The only difference is the positioning of the fingers. I feel that controlling < and > with just the indexfinger places your hand in a more natural position without the need to move your hand. On the "other hand" I am lefthanded myself, so I actually don 't have a clue... :D Would be nice to hear an opinion of a player who uses the WASD with [ ] set-up. Though not much chance I think, I assume it 's rather exotic. Really like the way you question your own use of the Page Up and Page Down keys. And I would like to ask: "why don 't you give QE a go?": but I won 't. You as a Generalissimo do have PU and PD most likely fixed into your mind!
