Tank won't move after repair
Sometimes, not always, after repairtime of my tanks, the tank won't move. It responds to my mouse, buy not to my keys. Why is that? Switched keyboards, same problem. I can only leave the tank.

Did your track get destroyed, in addition to transmission or the engine? Not activating repairs yourself will cause the crew to only fix the track and ignore the other parts

Seems that it only happens with my Stug III G. Happened again in last match. Engine gets hit, do a full repair with a least 2 crew members. I am ready to go but wasd is not responding, I can move the cannonn, shoot . Mouse is working. In de topleft corner gear says N, engine 1800 but it's all flickering like something is stuck. I use auto gear in AB. Can only leave the tank. All this started a few days ago.

Are you sure the key for repair is not same same as for toggle gear mode ?
Even if you use auto-transmission mode, you can switch it off with a key which could be the same as repair in your controls

just checked, transmission up/down E/Q, transmission mode R, repair F. Autotransmission Yes.
Happens on my PC and laptop. I might just get a support ticket. Maybe a bug limited to the STUG III G since last updates?
Can you check the replay and look if you have a driver? The crew does simetimes not rotate to the correct position.

Thank you. I did this and you're right. None of the remaining crew switched to the driverseat. well this happens to this tank quite a few times lately.

A crew member not switching to driver also happens to me at times, not in a Stug, but it does happen in German tanks. Only started with last update. As well as other "issues".

Sometimes if you recive additional damage after initial damage and you already repairing yourself, the new damage isn’t being repaired at the same time and you need to do another set of repairs. Could it be this?

Not in my case. At first I thought it was that change they did some time ago where you could use a key press to force a crew member to move. I do not remember all the details and it happens rarely to me. It may happen in other nations, it is just that I have been playing German units for the last few months.

I know what you mean, but all repairs are finished. The 2 crewmembers, who obviously cant decide who's driving the bloody vehicle, are the problem.

Ah, I see what you are saying.


“You drive.” “No you drive.” “No you drive.” “I’m not driving, you drive.”

so how do you move the crew members? I'm currently unable to move my tanks at all, all BR, all countries. Planes work fine in plane battle, but join tanks, only motion doesnt work everything else does. Feels like i'm banned for complaining about bots
