 This value modifies the rate of turn on the vehicle when the player holds 'Shift' in combination with the arrow keys. So, for instance, a value of 200 % means that a vehicle turns twice as fast when the player is holding shift. Usually this value would be around 110-120, so that shift increases the turn rate slightly but not so much that it would become disconcerting. This can also be set lower than 100 to slow the turn when the player holds shift, but this is not usually the desired behaviour. This value modifies the rate of turn on the vehicle when the player holds 'Shift' in combination with the arrow keys.

-==== Armour Strength ====+==== Turret Pitch Limit ====
  
-Armour modifies the amount of damage the vehicle receives when it is hit by weapons. A value of 100 means the vehicle takes the exact amount of damage set in the World settings for each weapon, less than 100 means the vehicle receives more damage and more than 100 means the damage is reduced.+Angle (in degrees) to which a vertical turret on this vehicle can pitch.
  
-The armour value is used as a percentage to calculate the actual damage done to a vehicle. A value of 25, means 400% damage is done, a value of  
- 
-200 means 50% damage is done. 
- 
-When the setting is 0, the default value of 100 (%) is used.
