Title: New Damage model on the jug
Post by: ML52 on December 14, 2012, 01:49:52 PM

I understand there has been a change to the damage model on the jug; does anyone know what changed?

HT made it more like a jug and less like a zeke. Before the fix there was a 70% chance any hit caused a main fuel leak or fire. Now it not only seems to absorb more damage but the chronic fuel leaks have settled down.

unless you were losing fuel fast or didn't know how to switch tanks it could turn bad on you, but now not so much worry. The helical engines would run forever with 2 cylinders blown away... :salute

Unlike our 2800 which hemorrhages oil and shuts down from a single .303
