New Defense Micro Upgrade System (Concept)

[NinjaNarwhal 1]

        Hi, recently, I've been thinking about a new micro upgrading system, specifically for the defense / hp portion.  The main idea is a new section of the garage where tankers could upgrade individual armor plates separately, as opposed to the whole tank at once.  

      

    Some features (ideas) for the interface of the new garage section:

 

• 3D click and drag model of tank.

• Click on armor plate to show current defense status, and available upgrades.

• Cost per upgrade is determined by how many times that plate is hit on average (from all of tanki, not just the player).

• More upgraded areas show as a darker color (blue?).

• Turret's defense micro upgradable as well in the exact same way.

 

       Now, one last thing, the defense of armor plates is the same as a current tank.  If that doesn't make sense, here's an example.  Let's say a tank with 120 defense gets hit, and it takes away half the tank's hp.  The same would apply for a tank that gets hit by the exact same turret, in the exact same scenario, just in an armor plate with 120 defense.  The tank would still take the same amount of damage.

 

      Well, that just about sums up this concept, post what you think about it below and in the poll above!  :)

What you are suggesting is having different armour thickness around the tank, like in the game World of Tanks. While this is an interesting idea, it won't be possible to add in this version of the game for sure, but it won't be added in Unity either, simply because it's not necessary for a game like this. Tanki Online is an arcade shooter, therefore such precise strategy (like choosing which side of your tank is better to expose) isn't as useful in this game as it is in some other similar games. Besides, Tanki already has Micro Upgrades, which serve a very similar purpose of allowing your to upgrade different parameters of your tank, so your idea won't be implemented.
