picking up dropped item hidden from view?

ToBeRi · 07-07-2004, 02:44 PM

Hello everyone, demo version question here.

If an item (eg repair kit) is dropped on the ground, and is hidden from the player's view by, say, an immovable tank, and I cant get a 'pick up' icon; is there a work around to enable me to pick up that item?

Thanks for your kind attention and time.

You can use the tab key to high-light the items you can pick up, but if an item is actually under a tank then you are seriously out of luck...

Actually online I blew up a tank that sat ontop of a soldier of mine that was dead.. I managed to climb UNDER the tank and revive him

yeah, if you can't move the tank/object in the way.....destroy it!

Thanks Bob. The item isnt right under the tank, but just hidden from the player's view on the game's playing angle. I wouldn't worry if its under the tank lol.

Thanks to everyone for replying and being helpful
