Now click anywhere on the map and you will able to spawn it. As you can see on the screenshot there are two tanks. That is because you must press the right mouse button to stop the spawning of the unit.

Scroll down and click on tankman. Put 4 tankman on the map, and one tank_commander. Alternate, you can spawn any human and put them inside the tank, but tankman is born to be in a tank :).

Action

 
Time to fight. Press START in the left upper corner. Press F6 and choose any environment that you want. Keep in the mind, if you spawned T-34 too close to Panzer III, they will start fighting each other right after you press START.

You can control T-34 because you pressed 2 on Numpad before. If you want to control units of player 1 press 1 on Numpad.

Useful Features

 
In this section you can learn more basic features for simple battles. 
 

Copy and Paste

 
You can use Left CTRL + C to copy units. 
Call to Arms - Gates of Hell: Ostfront Simple Battle in Editor 
 
And Left CTRL + V to paste units. If you want to paste a vehicle with a crew, copy it after you placed the crew inside.

Units Brain

 
In this part, you can set which player will control the selected unit in mission editor – F3. If you change “player”, it will automatically change “mask_player”. If you change only “mask_player” it will NOT change “player”. So, if “player = player 2” and “mask_player = player 1”, you will able to control player 2 units by pressing Numpad 2, but you will not able to attack player 1 units because they are friendly. They have the same “mask_player”.

Here you can set control mode (AI, user), movement mode (free, hold, zone), and fire mode (free, hold, return). If a unit has AI control it will have unlimited ammo and fuel. You can change these settings for multiple units at once as well. Just select them (make sure you didn’t select anything else than units) and you can set for example movement mode for them.
