Q: Why are the tanks underpowered?
A: The basic tanks series so designed to be balanced with the vanilla tank, and for realism. For more powerful tanks for the late-game, there are upgrades to tanks MK1 and tanks MK2 series, unlocked by technology of power armor and power armor MK2 respectively.

Q: Why are the tanks so OP?
A: The vehicle equipment grids can be turned off or adjusted to smaller sizes, under "Options" → "Mod settings" → "Startup" tab. (For multiplayer server, only the host can tweak options before hosting.)

Q: What is the classification like light, medium, heavy tanks?
A: There is a long history of light, medium and heavy designations in the real world, started since the first few years of their appearance. This classification is generally referred to by weight, and by the tactical role is suited for. Below are the most common tactical role designated to them:
- Light tank: reconnaissance, infantry support.
- Medium tank: using mobility to exploit situational advantages (like flanking).
- Heavy tank: main advance, frontal assault.
- Super-heavy tank: an indestructible vehicle for penetrating enemy formations.
But in reality, it is much more complicated. Due to technological and engineering advancement, some light tanks (PzKpfw II: 40 km/h) can be slower than a medium tank (PzKpfw IV: 55 km/h), as well as weight of tanks varied a lot over time. PzKpfw IV (17.7 - 25 t, road speed 40 km/h) and PzKpfw V "Panther" (44.8 t, road speed 55 km/h) are both being classified as medium tanks, due to similar tactical role. These examples show there is no easy way to "clear cut" classify different tanks. In this mod, we assume the whole tank series is designed at the same time, so we can simplify the details a bit.

Q: Why not just have a single tank (like the "Main Battle Tank")?
A: After WWII, advancement in engine power allows the possibility of a multi-role tank, the "Main Battle Tank", which combines the mobility of medium tank and protection of heavy tank. In addition, any level of armour was insufficient against the threat of tactical nuclear weapons in the cold-war era, further reducing the usefulness of heavy tanks.
BUT in Factorio, the enemies (biters) do NOT have tactical nukes in their arsenal. Compared to a balanced tank, a faster light tank still performs better in hit-and-run tactics, and a better armoured heavy tank still survives better on frontal assaults. Therefore, specialized tanks are still more effective versus conventional enemies. Most importantly, it is more fun to have diversity. Different choices for players in favour of their playstyles!

Q: Why are the heavy tanks and super-heavy tanks so expensive?
A: Heavy tanks are supposed to be few, and driven by the more-experienced tank commanders only. Most of the super-heavy tanks are just designs on paper, only few prototype comes in existence. During World War II, German tanks comprise about 30% heavy tanks and 0.01% super-heavy tanks (only 3 produced!). So it is not supposed to be every player having one in their pocket... Due to their slower movement and fire rate, it is best to work with light and medium tanks to fight together.

Q: What are the autocannons?
A: An autocannon is a large, fully automatic rapid-fire weapon firing shells. It has a larger calibre than machine gun, but much smaller calibre than typical tank cannon. While it is ineffective against tank armour, it is extremely effective against soft targets like enemy infantry (PvP!) and smaller biters.
In this mod, autocannons are used exclusively by light tanks, replacing the tank cannon. Properties of autocannon allow light tanks to perform hit-and-run sneaking attacks against biter nests while solo. The weakness against tank armour, can turn into an advantage when moving in a tank group, fending off small biters closing-in without doing much damage to heavier tanks in front.

Q: What are the cannon collision box check in "Options" → "Mod settings" → "Startup" options?
A: Originally, the cannon shells fired from the tanks have a "collision box", may penetrate or explode immaturely if an entity (like biter, friendly player, or a tank) is on the way. It may be desired (damaging incoming enemies) or undesired (causing friendly fire, or even killing yourself!) depending on the situation.
By default, this option is ON, keeping the vanilla behaviour. By turning this off, tanks shells can be safely fired over friendlies ahead. Be ware you can still damage friendlies around the impact point.
Updated from 0.16.2, only explosive type cannon shells are affected by this option. The two armor piercing type shells do not deal AoE damage, thus excluded from here.

Q: What are the autocannon collision box check in "Options" → "Mod settings" → "Startup" options?
A: Similarly, it is the same collison box check, but for autocannon on light tanks. Default is OFF, as it is supposed to be a supporting weapon rather than for penetration.

Q: What are the tanks MK1 series?
A: They are the straight upgrades from the basic tanks series. More health, more armour, more engine power, larger vehicle grid. No downside (except for a higher cost). They are unlocked by the same technology as power armor. Be sure to take out all equipment from the vehicle grid before upgrade. WARNING: Beware that if you upgrade in an assembling machine, the equipment inside will be lost forever, since the game do NOT handle that by default. This mod adds a special code so will return them to player's inventory (or spill over to the ground if full) if it is handcrafted. So to be sure there will be no losses, upgrade by hand!

Q: What are the tanks MK2 series?
A: Similar to the tanks MK1 series, it is an upper tier and another straight upgrade. More health, more armour, more engine power, larger vehicle grid. No downside except for a very high cost (as level 3 modules). They are unlocked by the same technology as power armor MK2. Again, be sure to take out all equipment and/or upgrade by hand.

Q: What are the tanks MK3 series? Why they are in the list but do not show up in game?
A: Similar to the tanks MK2 series, it is an upper tier and another straight upgrade. No downside except for an even very high cost! They are unlocked by the same technology as power armor MK3, which appears when enabling the extension mod Schall Alien Tech. You will also needs to ensure the lower tiers are not disabled in mod options.

Q: Super-heavy tanks (or another tank) should have more weapons to deal with the swarms (or other reasons). Why do you nerf that in this mod?
A: Yes, some may argue the real-world super-heavy tanks are mounted multiple machine gun to fend off soft targets. But without the need of support tanks, then the lesser tanks (like the Medium Tank) will be rendered useless. Therefore, on creating this mod, there always needs a compromise between realism, balance, usefulness, and simplicity. To simplify things and make all things have their uses, this mod has such basic principles on tank designs:
- Using the vanilla tank as base, make minimal changes. Set as medium tank.
- Lighter tanks have greater mobility and maneuverability.
- Lighter tanks are less durable.
- Lighter tanks deal with weaker enemies better, with lower single-shot damage but higher RoF.
- Lighter tanks need help from heavier tanks when facing strong enemies and/or defences.
- Heavier tanks not only move slower, but also rotate slower.
- Heavier tanks are more durable, together with better armor reducing damage inflicted.
- Heavier tanks deal with stronger enemies better, with higher single-shot damage and DPS at the cost of lower RoF.
- Heavier tanks need help from lighter tanks when facing swarms.
- Heavier tanks cost more in material. Being proportional to the weight of reference tanks in WWII. So do not be surprised a heavy-tank (reference to PzKpfw VIII "Maus", weight 188 t) costs 8× of a medium tank (reference to PzKpfw IV, weight 17.7 - 25 t).
In order to keep the choices varied, diversed and fun, we have to keep the settings like this at the moment. It is always subject to change, however.

Q: Why are the super-heavy tanks so slow? The turrets traverse so slowly!
A: This has been addressed by users several times, and I have explained in details. Please read threads: 1 and 2.
In short, this is both for realism and balancing. "Panther Ausf. D" and "Tiger I Ausf. H" have very fast (if not fastest) turret traverse among WWII medium tanks, could perform a 360-degree rotation in 60 seconds (thus 1 rpm speed) thanks to the hydraulic traverse system. Heavy and super-heavy tanks could only be much worse (because of laws of rotational motion), taking multiple minutes. The in-game turret traverse speeds are already quite ultra-realistic!
The problem of slow turret traverse was known to the WWII tank commanders. So they developed a special move, that was taking the advantage of tank tracks can actually go into opposite direction, rotating the tank chassis itself. Therefore, it greatly reduces the turret rotation required, hence pointing the tank cannon to its targets much faster. (Taking this into gameplay, rotate you tank with A or D key towards the target will shorten the wait duration.)

Q: What do you have in mind when setting the cost, weight, engine power like that?
A: I took the following tanks as the examples of various classes:


The above measurements affect the tanks in the following way:
- Weight: the weight, material cost, time cost
- Length: the dimensional scale between different tanks
- Motor: the burner energy consumption (thus power), material cost
- Road speed: tuning of the burner energy consumption, weight
- Year of production: relative adjustment of figures above
- Armament: number of machine guns and cannon specs
Notice that technological and engineering advance rendered the above stats not directly comparable.

Q: I feel the vehicle-only equipment are vastly overpowered...
A: Should a handheld battery having the same capacity of a car battery? No, we all know it is not the case. Comparing the size of a tank to any personal powered armor could be, a tank should easy carry 10 times of amount of battery in it. Instead of making vehicle grids some enormous size, it is much easier to just provide vehicle-only equipment having capability of a relative scale. I feel three times the battery capacity is a good compromise between realism and game balance. If you still disagree, these equipment can be toggled off under "Options" → "Mod settings" → "Startup" tab.

Q: I feel the vehicle nuclear reactor equipment are way too overpowered...
A: Perhaps yes as a balancing concern, since you can now fit more personal laser defence on the vehicle grid... But shouldn't the fusion technology be a higher tech than the fission technology (those using uranium-235 as fuel)? Such a vehicle nuclear (fission) reactor will fit the technological and engineering advancement timeline in game. If you feel it should be excluded from your game for any reasons, it can be toggled off under "Options" → "Mod settings" → "Startup" tab.

Q: What are the differences on MK1 and MK2 upgrades of night vision equipment?
A: The brightness is actually improved over the vanilla night vision equipment, although the differences are not so visible without direct comparison. Nightvision MK2 has even brighter than MK1. Note that there are slight increase in power consumption. So if portable solar panel is the only power source on your armor grid, try obtain more power first, like the new fuel cells or the small variants of portable fusion reactors.

Q: My other mods need the vanilla tank as ingredient, how can I unhide the recipe?
A: If you are first time using this mod on a game, enable "Keep vanilla Tank recipe" option is enough, which is under "Options" → "Mod settings" → "Startup" tab. For an ongoing game, you may also need to check the "Force enable vanilla Tank recipe" option (under "Options" → "Mod settings" → "Map" tab) once, then save game. The later option needs to be unchecked again after activation, because this option enables the recipe REGARDLESS of whether you have the requisite technology.
You may also need to check these options and save game, if you want to disable/uninstall this mod.

Vehicle Clone Placement

This mod has introduced the "vehicle clone placement" feature! When it is activated, the script will try to place the same set of all items (fuel, ammo, equipment, inventory, filters) of the reference vehicle onto the target vehicle. One hotkey/click to do all the job! Items are taken from player inventory, as if the player did it by hand.

This feature can be applied to any vehicles, including cars, tanks, locomotives, train wagons, spidertrons, etc.

Activation

There are two ways to activate this feature. Procedures are as follows:

On Entity Built

1. Enter (drive) a vehicle, which will be taken as the reference vehicle.
2. Build (place) the vehicle item near you, which should be the exact same type of vehicle.
3. Flying text should appear over the player character, listing items taken from player inventory.
4. Flying text should appear over the target (built vehicle), with the action text "Place", followed by items failed to be placed (see below "Restrictions" sub-section.)

On Entity Settings Pasted

1. Both the reference and target vehicles must already be on map (already built).
2. Hover mouse cursor over the reference vehicle, and click the "Copy entity settings" hotkey (Default: "SHIFT + Right Click").
3. Hover mouse cursor over the target vehicle, and click the "Paste entity settings" hotkey (Default: "SHIFT + Left Click"). Can apply on any types of vehicles.
4. Flying text should appear over the player character, listing items taken from player inventory.
5. Flying text should appear over the target vehicle, with the action text "Place", followed by items failed to be placed (see below "Restrictions" sub-section.)

Restrictions

Some items may not be successfully placed (displayed in red text). Reasons could be one of the following:

• Same slot already occupied. (Target vehicle has an existing item/equipment at the slot, before placement.)
• [Fuel, Ammo] Different categories. (For example, a reference MK2 tank is using rocket fuel in fuel slot. Attempting to clone onto the nuclear-powered MK3 tanks will fail.)
• [Equipment] Outside the grid. (Target vehicle grid is smaller than that of the reference.)
• [Equipment] Different accepted categoris. (For example, a reference Heavy tank is using cannon pod. Attempting to clone onto the Light tanks will fail.)
• [Inventory] Special items (usually non-stackable) cannot be cloned. These include blueprints, blueprint books, deconstruction planners, armours with grids, vehicles, etc.

Prevent Activation

In case you do not want to misfire the clone, or any reasons do not like this feature, you can disable it under "Options" → "Mod settings" → "Per player" tab.

Known Issues

• Copy & paste entity settings does not work on Spidertron, because the event is not triggered by vanilla design (tested on 1.0.0). You may need to use "On Entity Built" method when applying on Spidertrons.
• Do not support equipment with different internal item name. The game API (on 1.0.0) does not provide a quick lookup of the corresponding item; while game.get_filtered_item_prototypes filters are really difficult to be used for such purpose.

Equipment

Portable Fusion Reactor

Introduced small variants of portable fusion reactor. Works at a lower efficiency. Unlocked by portable fusion reactor technology (same as vanilla portable fusion reactor).

Vehicle Energy Shield

Introduced large capacity variants of vehicle-only energy shield. Unlocked by same technologies of energy shield equipment.

Vehicle Battery

Introduced large capacity variants of vehicle-only battery. Unlocked by same technologies of battery equipment.

Vehicle Fuel Cell & Nuclear Reactor

Introduced fuel-powered generators for vehicle equipment. Compared to fusion reactor giving out "free" energy, these fuel-powered generators have higher power output. Works best when mixed together as a good backup/secondary power source, like what the coal-powered steam engines do to solar panels in any electric network.
All vehicle fuel cells are using chemical type fuel (wood, coal, solid fuel, rocket fuel, nuclear fuel) as fuel, unlocked by electric engine technology. Higher chemical fuel types do NOT confer any advantage, so best to use wood in fuel cells, leaving the rocket fuel in the vehicle fuel slots for the acceleration. Larger vehicle fuel cells have higher efficiency in power conversion, and higher power output per grid tile.
Vehicle nuclear reactor is similar to the vehicle fuel cells, especially for using only nuclear type fuel (only the "nuclear fuel cell" used by nuclear reactor is of this type, in the vanilla game). Due to the adaptation to fit in a vehicle, the power output and fuel efficiency is halved. However, it still much more powerful than the chemical fuel powered counterparts. Unlocked by the same technology as the nuclear reactor.

Discharge Defense

Discharge defense is a useless equipment long forgotten. Consumes large amount of power (1 trigger worths 20 personal laser shots). And even developer Klonan has commented on the impractical manual trigger. By having the option to make it auto triggering, combined with the above-mentioned new power equipment, it can keep enemies at bay! When driving light tank performing hit-and-run, it can prevent behemoth biters on the way in stopping and killing your fragile tank! Even for a super-heavy tank can be useful, explosions on premature cannon shell trigger will not hurt yourself since the blocking biters kept at distance, allowing you to fire safely and leisurely.
Note that each trigger costs 2 MJ, with shooting speed of 0.4 /s. This equals 800 kW, which is a little bit more than a full portable fusion reactor! You may need the newly-introduced fuel cells or even nuclear reactor to power it up (together with other equipment). Plus, it may need about 3 to 4 discharge defense to perfectly keep biters at bay, depending on number of behemoth biters chasing after you.

Tank Flamethrower

The handheld and turret flamethrower use the default flamethrower ammo behaviour: a flame stream having a smaller radius, do not deal damage to trees, but can set things on fire leaving flame on ground. The tank flamethrower uses a different behaviour: a wider flame stream that can damage trees, but do only direct damage. As par request, this mod provide the option to set tank flamethrower using the default behaviour as well.
