Ditching
« on: October 07, 2009, 07:57:11 PM »
Why is it when you kill a ground vehicle, base stops flashing and you're no more than 200 yards off base. You get a "ditch" message when you tower out?

Because you POed the wing XO and now he has it in for you.  Plus you forgot to give the CMSGT a Christmas present last year.  Now you know.  :rofl

It's SUPPOSED to be that you took some sort of hit, and therefor ditched.

It's because HiTech doesn't like you. This "ditching" thing doesn't happen to the rest of us.  :D

I understand the rules for a safe landing vs. a proxy when you tower out, but ditching in a gv still confuses me.  What are the conditions for a ditch?
