General Purpose Tank MKII

This time I will show you another tank, but not a tank that is a replica* from an existing model. just a tank designed to perform simply the best. Same mindset as with my previous General Purpose Tank, so therefore I baptize this tank as: "General Purpose Tank MKII". although it is slightly heavier than the older model in terms of computing power (524 blocks), on my PC I can run it at 100% with ~30 fps, and run it smoothly at 75%.

KEY FEATURES:
- Very robust tracks
- As good as zero slipping between the wheels and the tracks (~100% transfer ratio)
- gyro-stabilized first person camera
- a periscope for precise aiming
- fits in boundary box
- used a method that reduces overshoot when using a steering block or steering hinge. this caused by the infinite torque that they create, together with higher moments of inertia. or in layman terms: the turret will not shortly vibrate when you stop turning.

COMPARISONS WITH PREDECESSOR:
- more blocks, so more lag (sadly)
- wheels instead of steering block, the steering blocks produce infinite torque, so infinite acceleration. this would break the tracks in some situations
- cannon cannot shoot at the tracks anymore (more elevated)
- higher cannon power (3)
- completely armored

CONTROLS:
drive tank: [ARROW KEYS]
tighten tracks: [H]
control turret:
fire cannon: [.]
first person camera: [1] (gyro stabilized)
cannon periscope: [2]**

NOTE: In case you would like to use the tracks only to build level finishing equipment on, I have them available and can upload the base tracks if wished.

* although it is not created as an direct replica, the hull and the turret have some similarities with the german Panzerkampfwagen III
**especially with targets close by, aim a little bit to the left. adviced to lower game speed when trying to aim precise.
