MajKrapp bomb and bail didnt issue a proxy kill
« on: August 24, 2017, 12:50:21 PM »
I hunted down these bombers several sectors and finally caught up to him, no friendlies ever came close to him throughout the whole sortie.  I got within 2.2k of him before he bailed and wasnt issue a proxy kill. Attached film.

Checked his TU-2 score and it shows he was only shot down in it once this month, and from a guy that was on the same team as him.  Verified with that guy that he hadnt shot a TU-2 today.

Not sure why he bailed.

I would have turned around and jumped you with an altitude advantage for a fun fight with 25k worth of altitude to work.

Had Blazin bail under 2.5k this morning, no proxies granted.  Did the proxy range change or was it never 2.5k?

This is an arena setting and can be looked up under the Ranges tab, as "ManeuverKillRange". Currently set at 6,000 feet

Which sounds like the normal default it has always been...and equates to 2k as displayed by the range icons.

I think bombing and bailing is a bad thing...
but, if HTC allows it, I won't complain  :bolt:
