Bug with Collision model Niki collides with GV Twice
« on: January 19, 2012, 05:47:40 PM »
I was in a Wirblewind that took engine and track damage.   I was being straffed by a N1KI and in two passes I got the message that he collided with me.  However,  he took no damage after two collisions with a damaged GV.   On film it clearly shows his wing passing through my vehicle lower chasis...and the collision message show up...but there was no noticable damage to his aricraft.

Have film if needed.

It sounds like he collided with you on your PC but there was no collision on his PC.

Yeah.....I'll bet that GV was airborne and surely is overmodeled.

As I understand it, you do not get a "soNso has colided with you" unless it happened on his end. Also, where his wing touched you and by how much from your prospective has little to do with how bad he colided with you on his end.

Welll...all this counters absolutely everything that has ever been explained on this board about the collisions.  Many a time I am well clear of an enemy plane but somehow....collide with him.   I ask the question and everyone says..."Well...if HIS FE shows you hitting him...well...then YOU take damage."

Now I am hearing that "just because MY FE shows him hitting me...it doesnt means he takes damage."

Bottom line....an N1KI hits a Wirble twice it should go down.  The system saw the collision...not my eyes.  I guarantee if that nikki touched the gound or the top of a tree...no matter how gently or at what angle...it takes damage.   A 20 Ton armoured vehicle is much harder than either a tree or the ground.

In my opinion, this is still a bug.
