"Vehicle Presets" are a mechanism which allows player to save several variants for vehicle arrangement in the crew slots.

Msg-info.png Vehicle Presets have no actual effect in gameplay except for saving time.

Managing presets

By default, each nation has up to 4 presets available filled with Reserve vehicles of Army, Aviation, Bluewater fleet and Coastal fleet trees. If naval trees not yet implemented on corresponding nation, only first 2 of them would appear.

The action buttons below can be used to make change to presets.

The initial presets are only made for convention, player may add new presets, delete existing presets or rename/reorder them. To do so, click the Presets button on the right most of presets list, then a window named Vehicle Presets will pop up, with a set of action buttons on the bottom.

The total presets number are limitated, player can increase the limit by unlocking high rank vehicle of different tech tree, each nation can have 18 presets at most.

Technically a player can play all game modes and battle ratings with only 1 preset, but which could waste many time in switching vehicles.

Changing a preset

A vehicle list and filter will be displayed when changing a slot.

As previously mentioned, a preset acts as a recorder. To make changes to a preset, player need to first select it, then changing the individual crew slots and/or game mode, the last state of them will be saved for future.

Vehicle on each crew slot can be changed by clicking the slot and choose Change Vehicle on the context menu.

Msg-important.png Crew trainings and qualifications are tied to certain crew slots, irrelevant to the chosen preset.

The game mode can also be changed by clicking it.

When encountering game crash or connection lost, one or more presets may get mistakenly replaced, in this case player have to manually restore it by changing individual slots.
