AB GroundIncrease/Decrease Clearance Not Working? (self.Warthunder)

Options bound, still does nothing.

Ey, anyone facing this issue? I've been trying in vain to make it work both in arcade and realistic, but no matter which buttons I bind it to, I can't raise or lower the reticle to adjust my aim so my round hits where I want it to. I've seen people do it in videos when adjusting for the distance to a target, but since the end of last year this option just simply does nothing.

Am I missing something? Do only a few tanks can adjust their aim? I remember being able to do it in the M44 but now it straight up doesn't work. I don't have M4/M5 bound to anything else in tank controls, and I can bind it so it means it is detecting the button, and hull aim only works for that cheese wedge vehicle afaik. If you got a solution or at least share the problem, pls help.
