    Thank you for all the positive comments! I will definitely make a part 2 in the near future.
    A couple of things to note:
    At 12:52 I said there were 6 Italian planes, which is not true. If you include the bombers, there are 13.
    If you want to go into free-view mode in the hangar (15:10), you can press Alt F2 if you have an Nvidia graphics card.

    *By the way you didn't cover nor list some stuff, so here goes, some of these were tested and confirmed by me in custom battles with friends:*
    If you are holding the Alt key on the minimap, you can zoom in and out by scrolling your mousewheel
    If you are spectating someone, the Insert and Delete keys zoom in and out respectively and Pg Up and Pg Down changes the spectator target
    If your Fuel Tank is on fire, you can actually drown it by shoving your engine on the water, it will extinguish the fire
    Disabling the Stabilizers on some tanks does actually help, in the Mk3/Mk7 Centurions, if you pivot turn with the Stabs off, the turret will turn at the speed of the hull, which makes it easier for shooting players around you without waiting for the whole turret to turn, this also goes for fast vehicles such as the Kpz/MBT-70 and others.
    HEAT-FS shells deals more damage by creating more spalling if it hits the Turret Ring or any module on the tank
    Tank modules does have armour, but you can only see the armor values of the cannon breach, which is around +400mm
    If your commander gets knocked out, the gunner will take his place and the american voice will (apparently) change
    If you're playing with an american tank and load HESH, the commander will say "Load HEP", this is because in the US, HESH (High-Explosive Squash Head) shells are called HEP (High-Explosive, Plastic)
    For some reason 500kg bombs can't kill an IS-2 unless it falls directly over or under it
    Crew members can ricochet lighter shells such if they have high enough vitality and the shell doesen't penetrate with as much energy (such as penetrating the frontal armor plate of the King Tiger with a Centurion's APDS shot)
    When you are repairing, the cranking noises you hear are actually for some reason your driver automatically shifting gears front and neutral.
    You can bind a key to turn off your engine on tanks
    You can kill yourself by ammo racking an enemy tank
    If you destroy the Drakon/Raketenjagdpanzer ATGM Launcher, it can actually still fire for some odd reason
    There's a chance that if you hit said vehicles above and the Calliope launchers rockets, they'll explode violently like an ammo rack, but externally, and (in the case of the Calliope Launcher) will hurt/kill other players around, friend or enemies.
    HEAT-FS shells will not overpenetrate any soft target, however, if you shoot wooden/metal poles and thin targets, the metal jet will actually keep going forward despite you're clearly seeing the shell exploding, and will act as another HEAT-FS shell if it hits another vehicle.

    Some more ideas.
    Turning off the stabilizer can allow a tank to shoot lower than its depression by shooting while the gun depresses while braking and vice versa. Powerful enough rockets can destroy your own propeller if u are too close to the ground.
    Some british tanks like Chieftain's two piece ammo projectile are immune to blowing up since its only a projectile without propellant or gunpowder.
    Shooting MG on a dead tank's black husk can make on fire and open the hatches if it hadn't already before. Shooting the dead tank's husk that didn't despawn with MG and cannon both can make them blow up and despawn if they were blocking your way (inconsistent tho but I'm pretty sure those were players who left the match because the tanks had been there for minutes not seconds).
    Tanks can get dustier, muddier or snowier depending on terrain.
    Armour degradation is definitely a thing in the game but its very hard to notice because u can't see the hp of the enemy's armor plate degrading.
    Superficial structural steel boxes or turret cloths can be damaged on tanks by surviving an enemy round or by being shot with an HE round.
    You can die from a ricocheted shell and from explosion of nearby tank's ammo rack.
    Shooting something very fast with an inferior SPAA gun can lead to some rounds bypassing enemy armour on the sides (inconsistent and more likely to be a bug).
    Using simulator gunner's aim introduces parallax effect while aiming.
    Enemy tanks can be damaged by extreme ramming or stepping.
    If the armor being shot is both moving and rotating, it can drastically reduce penetration chances (inconsistent).

    If you turn the stabilizer off, you can use the hull to make the gun turn faster (by turning the hull in the same direction). May be useful in an emergency.
    Also, sometimes crew members still die and modules get damaged when you run into objects with tanks like the ASU-57. Not sure what causes it.

    Iirc turning off your stabilizer does have its use. If there's a tank behind you, you can turn off the stabilizer and turn the hull quickly while turning the turret, the barrel will reach the target far faster. Then you just gotta turn it back on - at least that's what I've been told.
