Nevermind, got in a situation where the other guy collided. Got the host PM almost immediately, then a kill message a few seconds later (he'd lost a wing in the 'collision'). Question answered.

NubOnFire, you will not get the kill if someone else had bulets in him and all you did was mess up your lame HO attempt and crash into him or if you were at 30K again.  Yes 30K is beyond the proxy kill buble so NO KILL FO YOU!!!!

Definitely a good idea -- but will it will cut down on the whiney "collision threads"?

I kinda liked the message and had to chuckle at it but.....  Yesterday myself and a 190 or 109 (I don't remember what one it was) ended up in a head on situation, neither one of us pulled off and we colided I get the message FLAYDone colided with you. Now if I'm getting this right this means it was my fault??  and if so how is this determened in a situation like this?


  In a mutual HO situation when neither one of the partisipants turn away how is it decided who ramed who?  

   Personally if I was the other guy HOing my YAK-9T I would have turned away :D  I wouldn't like to be staring down the barrel of a 37mm. :eek:  :)
 
  But what ever I was still chuckleing about it.

  Hmm I just saw the colision thread.... Sooo this was my fault?? and I smacked into a plane that wasn't actually there??? :lol

 Like someone said in that other thread....  My brain hurts. :D

You know, I still don't get it...

Player A and Player B ram each other...

Player A sees "Player A just rammed you"

Player B sees "Player B just rammed you"

Or.......... Do both see   "Player A just rammed you"  (assuming he caused the ram)?

If the former, I don't need a message telling me I was rammed or rammed someone else.

I got my first collision mesage last night........... and now I am confused, (easily done:) )

Bounced a P47 heavily sprayed him from his 6 nearly rear ended him but jinked underneath to avoid collision. The P47 was mostly tailess and I pulled up after/ during the jink.

I had not collided..........there was no collision noise or damage.

The PM was "You have collided with YUCCA" followed by a system kill message on YUCCA (he exploded).

So had this message come from YUCCA's FE?

You see I had not collided with YUCCA even if he had collided with me. I assume that my pull up brought me thru his ac on his FE. Hence his FE saw a collision.

If so should it not be

"YUCCA has collided with you"?


or to reduce confusion if mirrored on YUCCA's FE could it be


"YUCCA  sufferred collision" or "YUCCA had a collision"

The fact that the other party recieves this is enough to show that he was the "other party" in YUCCA's accident.

HiTech, I'm curious about the collision detection now. I was attacking some bombers last night in a 190 with the 4 20mm loadout. Sprayed 1 wing heavily. bomber starts to break left, I roll right, get the debris sound (still blasting away at the right wing). As I pass, on my FE I appeared to be clear of his wing tip, but I get 4 or 5 collision messages in a row. Question being, did I hit his plane, or did I hit debris or a a wingtip after I'd shot it off?

Also, diving on an m16 in an il2. Heavily damaged, lose control, plow directly into him. 5 collision messages. Is this how it's intended to work, or is this a glitch?

Yes good question HUB. I was playing in H2H mode with my brother and my wife today and he plowed his plane into her Osty and they both got 6 messages saying that she had hit his plane LOL.:rofl

  I would like to know how she plowed her Osty into his diving plane. Rocket boosters???

 
Seems like it's not working quite right. I like the idea of being told if you colided with someone so you arn't sitting there wondering how they got that impossible shot but the way it is I think it is causing a bit of confusion.

 No big deal though I will just keep right on flying. :)
