This tank in the building is a real pain in the ass. I cant see it but it can see me.
Tank in building

Wow don’t think I’ve ever seen this one before in CM. Reminds me of that scene in BoB where that Stug was hiding in a barn.
Yeah, it had me stumped for several turns as the StuG on the left got hit from this position but I couldnt get a direct spot on the tank even with infantry. I think it can see out of the walls on the left and right because of the windows but I can see in.
I just blew out blew out the solid wall opposite but still wasnt able to see in with the Tiger.

If you can spare the HE then Id just blow up that building!
It looks like the vehicle was placed on the map before the house.
I say this because the cromwell appears to be too far in the house. I dont think you can get vehicles that far in houses during the deployment phase unless theres a problem with this tank model specifically.

I have seen the programming screw up and do this, normally the unit is also stuck and cannot move.
but I had a tank move into a building once and also get stuck.
I also recall someone tricking the system and getting it to happen once in a scenario they designed. but I am not sure if it can even be done that way in a manor that it can be set up consistantly to do such a thing.
Anyway, good luck, the programming is not designed for you to spot it, like was said, maybe if the building is destroyed first.

This cropped up for me when testing the turning circle of German halftracks.
Nope. Never saw anything like that before.
I pictured people having breakfast look up to have a halftrack drive through their kitchen.
Thanks for posting that!

Update on my situation. I managed to kill it off with area fire through the hole I knocked in the far side. There was still no sighting on it. It was pumping rounds into my Tiger the whole time. It had near perfect view.
