Yeah easy as pie bro download my abtf map or spr map and the map file is in the pk3 and the code is in the scrs, one global and also thread tanks and the threads that go with it. I am releasing a tut map soon with drivable vehecles and tank bots. So iether wait for that or just grab spr and copy paste your way to freedom FREEDOM!!

What exactly do you want your tank(s) to do? Tank scripting is awesome and not very hard

Hi Jv_Map

The idea is the tank shot me with canon and machine gun , like the stalingrad map .

It's very simple but not for me

Any simple map example is good for me

See Ya

Try no to be too scared of the stalingrad map, some of the gear for the tank is behind the shed nearby like the mg and the hidden ai that fires it, so make sure you copy those entities as well, get the path right and you will be goin orf.

I will paste the script you need below here for ya. Btw it isnt the most efficientr script around but it done in a way I can understand.

One more note the script does refer to soem global scripts you need them in your pak as well, also my ai or jv's at least.

Keep trying if you get it right from your own efforts it becomes yours
