So how is "fault" determined?

I have experienced a fair few collisions recently. Some my "own fault", typically hitting a bomber when leaving it too late to break off although I don't recall the text colour it would probably be orange!. Most other times in a dogfight when I may not have even seen the other aircraft.

Edit:
LOL come to think of it I have had the same as Tinman (post below).

That is all.

Come on Bronk, that message is screwy.

Sat in a stationary Ostwind on a V-Base, Enemy planes diving in all around me - one dives straight into me and up comes the orange text. "You have collided".

Yes, the text must obviously be correct and I am a "ace pilot" for not getting supplies, starting my engine, throwing it into gear and crawling away as fast as my tracks will carry me.

What Each player see's is different

It has to do with the lag between your PC and the server and the other guys PC and the server.

What they see is different to what you see.

Fault has NOTHING to do with who caused the RAM

In the pic below the RED plane is responsible for the collision because the impact happened on his PC

On the BLUE Pilots PC no collision EVER occours

However on your it looks as he flies into you.

There is no blame . Just faulty judgment.

It's the fault for getting to close in the first place.
I posted film on this before.

You want to play the slow twity turny game you takes your chances.

I have collided and said to myself "Why in the hell did I not just reposition instead of forcing a bad angle.".

I dont mind ram tards, they just blow up when they hit me and i get the kill, there is no way to actualy ram someone in this game and cause them damage so whats the problem? The only true ram tards out there are ones who make BBS threads about how they are getting rammed.

Who is this guy. Understand the illustration Mussie, but I am talking about the ones who fly straight at youspraying 2.0 out miss then when you break they run into intentionally. And its funny cause when they ramm me, I go down and they get kill.

They prefer to HO, you are correct Rod.

My favorite is when I'm one target surrounded by about 10 or so other green planes, and yet I'll still have FIVE GUYS all ganging me and completely disregarding the other target options.

Or...

One plane rolling or landing. Fifteen cons defending the field, and the five or so red planes that pop up always go for the vulch rather than neutralize the bigger threats....
