#My tank drove off w/out me. I got out to rearm and off they went.

He should stop, maybe he tried to follow some waypoint that was set previously?

No, still learning the game and waypoints are something I wasn't aware are in the game. I had just taken the village and went back to the spawn point to rearm and refuel (didn't see any other depots) and as I got out of the tank, to practice getting out of the tank, I watched as the tank showed it's exhaust pipes and headed back towards the village. Kinda funny watching them leave me in the lurch.

we'll change this system and rework will be done
I guess the tank will just stop or pause the current command untill you get back into the tank/die in between

One other thing I was playing in simulation mode.

I understand, our tanks when you leave them become AI, not owned by player, and they just try to follow old orders or some other new ones that happen when you get out - it must be changed and will be
short delta
Did you order the tank to move to a certain area? sometimes it will not move if you are in a certain role. Then will follow your 'orders' once you get out...there is no way (yet) to simply tell them to stop other than telling them to move somewhere else...but I dont think you can do that while on foot

No orders were issued.

hm..

It could be very many points here, from evacuation order that somehow the AI thought is the best as they regained total control over the tank etc.
we need to add special behaviour for our vehicle that we've abandoned but we were not killed to not do such things
to just stay put
of course there's situations that the player left the game after getting out the tank or was killed outside - then the tank should do something, like return to formation but not immidiately retreat or something

Should be better after upcoming patch, marking as done but leaving opened
short delta
or could have had the 'cruise control' enabled....cant remember what it is called..the other option for driving...when I first started I had trouble with remembering to turn it off before exiting the tank
bitter garden
We've changed this to a system where the tank won't do a thing untill ordered to. Only if you die outside the tank, despawn or enter another tank - or give new order, the tank will move
Also we've removed totally the 10s wait since last player input (in commander mode or multicrew) and then the driver moved to last waypoint.
