(A bug) - GDI APC uses only one barrel to make fire

[bibobok]

In Tiberian Dawn we have APC with two barrels.
But that APC uses only the left one to shoot (the splash appears only from the left after each shot).
So could the developers fix it to shoot from both barrels at once or at least one by one...

if i remember it was something about the original was two\one barrel and it is only supposed to shoot one barrel despite its two barrel look

The turret shp for the APC isn't very vanilla, so either way it's not the biggest deal.

Anyway, most units in OpenRA currently do double barrel weapons by either:
A) simply having two weapons (at half damage) with each their own offsets, or
B) having two offsets in the weapon, and leaving the burst fire interval the same as reload time to enforce using the second offset

Though, if anything, someone in the dev team should look into this, as both currently have their drawbacks:
A) having two of the same weapon makes the unit hijack audio channels and be unbearably loud (can be fixed with the second weapon being a reportless copy),
B) the burstdelay to trigger the second offset not being affected by veterancy reload speed
