Because JB is obviously trying to tell NoQuartr something that they must have argued about.

not taking sides, and not trying to start an arguement.......

but the evidence of a simple screen shot is inconclusive of what actually happened....and to get to the bottom of this a jury would actually need to see actual raw film footage from both parties involved......

1 can actually fly into another  and receive no damage , yet the other person that was flown into receives the damage.......and it can happen vice versa as well as both parties receiving damage......

Had a collision last night. No damage on my end, yet it said I collied.

Had a corsair flop over on top of me last night (he collieded message), I Lost a left wing tip, he flew away unsacathed.

Just the way this game is.

I understand your explanation perfectly ... but you left out the logic of the HOST messages that are displayed.

From the screen shot it is quite conclusive that NoQuartr collided with Mustaine ... and that Mustaine did not collide with NoQuartr.

Mustaine's original post never brought up the subject of "damage" ... just "collison".

I had a zero ram my jug the other day, took off my wing it said he collided as he went flying on.
What I would like to know, how does a zero collide with anything and keep flying especially a jug? Its more like the PT-109 and the Amagiri in reverse.

Was that me?

If so, that collision took off my wing as well.  Somebody got the kill.

All we can see from Mustaine's screenshot is that Mustaine's FE thinks NoQuartr collided with him.  The system message displayed is NOT an assignment of guilt.  It's extremely unlikely, if not impossible, that NoQuartr's FE saw the same thing.  Damage would have been assigned accordingly.  If NoQuartr saw a miss, he received none.

Really, an understanding of the collision model shows that post's like these (attempting to assign blame for collisions) are pointless.

Having seen swarms of posts explaining the collision model, I won't explain it again, but would recommend a BBS search for anybody not familiar with how it works.

No guilt need be assigned ... just who collided and who didn't.

The HOST message it displayed to both parties. Had Mustaine collided with NoQuartr ... he would have also gotten the orange message (which NoQuartr most definately got) that he collided with NoQuartr.

When you get a HOST message ... that means that the HOST received information that one / the other / or both collided.

Mustaine did not collide with him ... on either FE ... his or NoQuartr's.

If two planes were flying straight at one another, both AFK and they collided, who would get the white message that "so and so collided with you" and who would get the message "You have collided".  In other words, who would get the blame?


I suppose the next question, and the MOST important is, if two planes collided in the wilderness and nobody was there to witness it, did it really happen???  :huh

If its nose to nose, both would get the "you have collided".

I run into people all the time, do I ever try to intentionally ram? Only if you are in a goon and I'm out of ammo :t
Usually it's the result of just getting too darn close before breaking away.
So to anyone I've ever hit sorry will try to be quicker next time:)
To any goon pilot I've taken out (I think I've only ever had to resort to this 2 or 3 times) sorry, but the greater good demanded it;)

Was NoQuartr even involved in a collision?  We can't tell that from the screenshot.  

It's entirely possible, if not probable, that from NoQuartr's veiw it was a near miss.  We can about guarantee that his FE didn't see things the way Mustaine's did.  

Would he have gotten a message "You have collided with Mustaine"?  Probably.  That would be because Mustaine's FE would have sent that info through the server.  Would he be damaged as a result?  Only if his FE also saw the collision.  Did it?

yes. that is the only way collisions are registered. it has been explained a bunch of times. his FE sees collision he gets a message "you have collided" and the other plane gets the message "xxx has collided with you"

bit of back story I was upping off a CV into a 6-2 and just out of ack range some guy comes blazing ho from D1.2, I was about 100 feet agl, juked left then slightly down right to go into a high left yo-yo, got pinged, then the ram message. a few seconds later the kill message, then shot down by another plane. I believe I gave a few hispano bursts on my way across left to right, one or 2 probably hit him and that why I got the kill credit.

my only reason to post was to call him out. he wants to talk smack well he better back it up with better flying than he did there. I'm no ace, everyone knows that, but I have been around for long enough to be better than the average n00b.

Mustaine's FE doesn't "think" anything.  It was NoQuartr's FE that detected a collision on his end and sent the message that he had collided.  Mustaine's FE is just the recipient of that message, it is not doing any analysis in this case.

Was NoQuartr even involved in a collision?  We can't tell that from the screenshot.

Yes we can ... Mustaine would not have received that HOST message had NoQuartr's FE not registered a collision. Since, Mustaine got the message ... NoQuartr did collide with him.

It's entirely possible, if not probable, that from NoQuartr's veiw it was a near miss.

Impossible ... see above.

We can about guarantee that his FE didn't see things the way Mustaine's did.

Absolutely ... Mustaine's FE saw no collision.

Would he have gotten a message "You have collided with Mustaine"?  Probably.

Not probably ... NoQuartr most definately got that message.

That would be because Mustaine's FE would have sent that info through the server.

Wrong ... what Mustaine's FE sees has no bearing on what happens to NoQuartr in this case.

Would he be damaged as a result?

Only if Mustaine's FE says that he collided with NoQuartr ... which he didn't else he would have gotten the orange "You have collided" message.

Only if his FE also saw the collision.  Did it?

Correct ... and no it didn't.

Post by: mtnman on November 19, 2007, 11:31:28 AM
You know, I think I took this backwards.  I thought Mustaine had taken damage from a collision, and was blaming NoQuartr for hitting him.

I was thinking Mustaine's FE saw the collision, and not Noquartr's.

I thought that was why Mustaine was lifting a new plane, hehe!

Sorry!

i think the collision model blows! i think people try to use it to thier advantage when losing a fite. when losing a tight s turning fight if they are out turned..they will continue the turn hoping to ram..knowing guns wont find the angle. i think both planes should go down. i don't care what he sees. maybe next time they wont get so close knowing they'll also go down.
i get 99fps...with all graphics maxed out. i have cable and i lose 99% of the collisions. its not right.

I've been hit many times in the rolling scissors so I know exactly where you're coming from, I don't think it was malicious though as you can get pretty close. I've also been guilty of misjudging the roll on the merge myself until figuring out the addition of a quick yo-yo in the roll can give a little bit of lag time to get guns on target.

So you expect the enemy to say " Well ftdeep is  too close to get a shot. Guess I better fly straight and lvl now".

Here is an idea. switch to lag pursuit till he gets a little separation.  He still going to turn as tight as possible (burning more mind you. While you are gaining a bit of E not turning so hard.

Difficult concept I know. I figured since you have such a firm grasp on the collision model. The above suggestion will be child's  play.

Sounds to me like you are putting your plane in a position to hit another plane on your front end 99% of the time.
