Title: "Land a plane thats damaged" achievement
Post by: Ripley on December 10, 2012, 04:50:12 PM: Landed a plane just now that had a bullet hole in it, but other wise it was all green, still got this achievement.

You should be missing pieces in order to get this imho.

just a suggestion.

Post by: Pand on December 10, 2012, 09:21:57 PM: Just landed one with the following missing:

Right horizontal Stab
Right Elevator
Left Elevator
Right Gear

Maybe different achievements for levels of damage?

Post by: Slate on December 11, 2012, 08:46:05 AM: I took off forgot to check my convergence so I turned around and landed. Broke my gear on landing and got the "Kiss the earth" acheivement. Should not be for damage brought on by yourself I don't think. :headscratch:

Post by: tunnelrat on December 11, 2012, 10:40:56 AM: Yeah, plane should require damage that causes an adverse effect on handling or otherwise the ability to land the plane (gear, etc)

Post by: NatCigg on December 11, 2012, 10:41:55 AM: I always thought getting home without elevators, or no fuel, or no vertical stabilizer (Multi-enginge plane), was one heck of a achievement. :joystick:

Edit: How would a computer filter out damage that came from landing to be sure the achievement was awarded accurately?

If/then statement around if the damage was registered by an enemy or not.

Post by: BaDkaRmA158Th on December 12, 2012, 04:24:11 AM: Would be cool to have multiple types depending on what form of damage, like the pilots that glide 7 sectors home on nothing but wind after a oil or radiator leak. "Runnin' on borrowed time" Or landing a plane that's missing both wing tips. "Look ma, no wings!"

:D

Post by: F77 on December 12, 2012, 11:08:08 AM: Perhaps if the enemy caused damage exceeds a certain value you should get an "On a wing and a prayer!"
Title: Re: "Land a plane thats damaged" achievement
Post by: Shade on December 13, 2012, 05:29:59 AM: Different levels I think would be good.

"Walk it off." A few bullet holes, nothing damaged.
"Amputation." One piece missing.
"Hurt me plenty!" Two systems down
"Lil Brudder." Three pieces missing.
"Tis but a flesh wound!" Four or more systems down.
