Description
This is a tank used by the french forces during the first world war. the St. Chamond was one of the first tank which was equipped with a full size 75mm field gun (British Mark V and the German A7V tanks had a 57mm main gun). despite this, the small track compared to the tanks size made it challenging to pass wide trenches or other high elevations.

This upload is equipped with 1 main cannon and 3 machine guns on the sides and the back. Each gun emplacement can be rotated over 2 axis. One must note that the tank is quite heavy in terms of computing power, I advice using it at around 60-100%

CONTROLS:
drive/steer tank: [ARROWKEYS]*
rotate cannon/machineguns: I J K L (works for all emplacements)
cannon: [1]
MG right: [2]
MG left: [3]
MG back: [4]
Tension tracks: [H] (not necessary, could improve movement when driving straight)

CAMERAS:
driver seat: [NUM9]
main gun: [NUM8]
MG left: [NUM4]
MG right: [NUM6]
MG back: [NUM2]

*as with my previous uploads, combining up or down with left or right will result in one track moving slower than the other, while only left or right will move one track forward and the other backward. because the construction of the tracks and the weight of the tank, it is adviced to use the combination rather than only left or right.

make sure to rate this upload and if you want more interesting builds, check out my workshop:

Nice amount of guns and I like the cameras and the windows!

Frankly, this tank is far from the best tank in besiege (in terms of track sustainability, mobility and limited angles). So I think my job is done here...

I do think lag caused by the block count, the more blocks the more need to be calculated. But I mean, the tank looks good as it is. :)

@Stargazer, I could do that, but I really like the appearance of those metal plates. besides that I have a feeling that lag is not only comming from block count but also from block scale (not tested).
Stargazer 10 Mar, 2017 @ 1:22am 
This is a nice tank for sure. But maybe strech the armor plate to reduce the block count as well as the lag?

How do you put a screenshot in the image?
