GTK Boxer Handling + Turret Tweaks

[AChesheireCat]

#592

• Increased initial acceleration to make vehicle feel more responsive

• Increased braking torque to make braking feel more responsive

• Decreased fording depth due to being able to operate despite the engine and exhaust being submurged by +1m of water over the hull

• Swapped the gunner's HMG turret from the M2 to the M3M per the wikipedia page

• Moved the countermeasures smoke from the commander's turret to the gunner's turret

I'll test later tonight, but before I do, are the vehicle handling changes vibes based or something else? And is the 250 round mags accurate or for some other reason?

For the most part, yeah. I was chatting with some other BW members about the Boxer and the near-unanimous opinion was that the Boxer's handling is really really poor. Especially when compared against vanilla / other modded vehicles. This doesn't completely get rid of it's unique handling, but makes it a bit more palatable and on-par with vanilla / other modded vehicles of similar type.

The 250rnd mags is because the M3M is only able to take that mag and isn't compatible with the normal M2/.50cal magazines... found that one out when testing lmao.

Works in game, but some minor feedback

I have to look some more but there are some animations that are based on the weapon I think?

		class AnimationSources: AnimationSources
		{
		class main_gun_muzzle_rot
			{
				source = "ammorandom";
				weapon = "CUP_Vhmg_m2_veh";
			};

			class main_gun_reload
			{
				source="reload";
				weapon="CUP_Vhmg_m2_veh";
			};
			class main_gun_reload_mag
			{
				source="reloadmagazine";
				weapon="CUP_Vhmg_m2_veh";
			};
			class main_gun_revolving
			{
				source="revolving";
				weapon="CUP_Vhmg_m2_veh";
			};

Good catch, I only double checked the particle effect memory points which should be good / compatible, but I'll do a second more thorough look through.

Edit: didn't see anything further
