• Ammunition Reload System Optimization - 26 June 2025

  New "Ready Rack" Mechanism A more realistic reloading workflow has been implemented: When shells are stored in the ready rack, reload speed is significantly faster. Once the ready rack is depleted, shells are transferred from other racks, resulting in a slightly longer reload time. The default reload time for ready rack shells has been adjusted for better balance. This mechanism adds strategic depth to ammunition management and creates a more realistic and tactical firing rhythm. Ammo Rack System Upgrade The number of shells displayed in ammo rack models must now match the configured data (requires mod adaptation). Modders can now define custom ammo rack usage order for more flexible reload logic. Main and secondary gun ammo racks are now separated, allowing independent configuration and behavior control. The Tank Workshop now supports custom ammunition count settings and rack-module bi…

• Overpressure mechanism - 13 July 2024

  Dear Players, We are thrilled to announce the latest update for "Panzer War"! In this update, we have implemented the Kingery-Bulmash formula to achieve a more realistic overpressure mechanism for explosives. Overpressure Mechanism: With the Kingery-Bulmash formula, we have updated the overpressure mechanism generated by explosions. The overpressure mechanism refers to the phenomenon where the pressure wave generated by an explosion exceeds the ambient pressure, creating a momentary high-pressure zone that impacts and damages surrounding objects. In the game, this will more realistically cause damage to members, making the combat experience more immersive and impactful. We believe this update will greatly enhance your gaming experience, and we look forward to your feedback and suggestions! Thank you for your continued support and passion! Happy gaming, The Development Team at WindyVerse…
