Collisions are fine. Stop's some of the HO fanatics. I encountered them for the first time yesterday and did'nt know what to think. I died only once to collisions and not again since, I do see alot of spits and la7's crashing into each other tho, its a wonderful site. Please don't take that away from me.

They also stop those firing with the 30mm a less than 100 yards, pretty historical btw.

Needs 2b XJ.  I died from three diff. "near misses" on my FE last night.  All fights were filmed, and I had plenty of seperation.

Maybe this "collision bubble" is real after all.

The bubble is to large.  If they make it more realistic it wouldn't be so bad.  Even Erich "Bubi" Hartmann shot himself down 4, maybe 6, times.  But he was still able to get within 50 feet before he opened fire.

It also seems like the debris can kill you.  All of my deaths last night were a result of me flying into the debris of my kills.  Have to watch out for those flying wingtips and flaps now.

There indeed seems to be a "collision bubble"  most evident with bomber formations.  This was one thing that was better before it was fixed.

Collissions are definitively wrong again. Near the tail of a P38, not touching it and crash.

flying debris will take the tail section off a 38, i found out the hard way, and i just flew to close to it, 50 ft or so.
