Informing people how to "cheat" should be an instant PNG.

If Collisions are OFF, then there is no reason to even remotely try to avoid Head Ons.

Chose your poison.

I have this saved as a text document on my desktop.




Tangle's external from his front end the moment of impact.



Same basic angle external, tangle's view from my front end moment of impact.



How would you feel taking damage looking at your film and seeing tangles front end view, hmmmmmm?

I know I'd be pretty POed.

Just wondering can you up another plane after you collide?:eek:
When I die bury me in a P38.

I watch day after day, week after week, tour after tour, the Bishops and Rooks take bases and win maps while the Knights stand there with their thumbs stuck in their butts. It's just pathetic!

Given the model as described above and several times before, if you are living 1 out of 20 times, it's because you aren't avoiding collisions.

As I said to JB21 last night as he was howling on 200 about the collision model, if YOU miss then, YOU won't die.

Use the collision model to your advantage.  If someone tries to ram me, I just jinx at the last second.  They hit me (unless they jinx too) and I fly on with only a damage message.  I don't do in intentionally as normally I try to get separation for a lead turn, which means I am no where near them until they feel my rounds hitting from their 6.

Jb21, your score indicates you are a good stick.  Practice lead turns, and avoiding the other planes and you just may find your K/D increases..

Last thing we need is to make the game even more gamey by turning it off. Personally I think HT have done a great job they way its currently implemented.

I agree, collisions, like everything else ever made by HT have been modeled perfectly.  I remember stories from my grand father in WWII.  Twice he collided with German 190s that tried to pick him off while he was fighting 2 zeros and a hurricane on the deck.  The first time the 190 exploded and grandpa got a pilot wound and lost his tail wheel.  The second 190 walked away unscratched while grandpas plane received radiator damage. He received several medals for that day since he killed the 0s, the Hurri, and the 190 that collided with him.  The other 190 run away.  he said his markings where (OkLoK) or something like that.  In any case, grandpas 202 was damaged pretty good but he made it back.  Typical day during WWII he said :lol
