Question: AH Damage model.

[TexMurphy]

Hey guys.

Ive got a few questions on the damage model in AH2.

1. How many damage areas are there on a plane?

2. Is the damage per area divided into a damage absorbing part and a internal damage part or is it just one set of "hit points"? (ie does the metal around the engine protect it from damage or is the entire engine area just one big pool of hit points)

3. How does the game determin who gets the kill? Is it most damage done or the most fatal damage done? (Last night I shot a wing of a plane, which crashed without anyone firing on it after my hits and I just got the assist)

Thanks
Tex

# 3 is who does the most damage. I am not sure why but it does keep kill stealers at bay during furballs.

Hi there you n00b killer..

Really fun fights last night. Man you and that other spit where an awsome team. Anytime I look back there is two spits on my tail.

How did we end up last night? You got me 3 and I got you 2? some like that I think...

At the end I though.. hmmm.. lets give this FlyBoy a suprice and I got out of my Yak and into a Spit but when I got back to the field there was no enemy spits to be found... But be sure Ill be on your six in the future.. >=)

Lets see ...

Wingtip(s)

Wing(s)

Aileron(s)

Rudder

Elevator(s)

Engine

Oil

Fuel

Gun(s)

Empanage

... basically, if you bring up the "damage" display, it will list all the parts of the plane, that you are flying, that can be damaged separately.
