I in my b17, shoot down 1 NIkki who comes dead 6, he slowsly spins outta control down to earth in flames. His buddy gets me somewhow when i ping his plane all up, i go down and explode. I get no kills. shouldnt a kill count when u knock of thier stabs and wings? I am tired of being shot down and no kils for the people who are still goin down.

When you explode or hit the ground, yer no longer flying (unless you count 3 million pieces of you (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif))
Seems a good compromise to me, even if kill steals and what you've just mentioned can be irritating.
It happens relatively rarely thoguh and doesn't bother me that much. I think we need to fix the kill stealer mentality rather than the software.

It would be nice if people would get the kill if they did the most damage to someone even if they died before the other person bailed or crashed or whatever.
I suggest a time period. If I cause critical damage to someone but die before they "officially" die, if the other person dies within 1 minute of my own death I would still get the kill credit.
This would avoid some of the really odd situations we saw in WB, where someone would get a kill credit for someone they pinged an hour and 2 deaths before, but it would still SEEM more fair especially if 2 people cause mutual kills in an HO or something like that.
As it is now, if I remove someone's wing in a headon and he also removes mine, if I bail out and he rides it in and dies, he'll get the kill credit and I won't even though he died and I survived. That just doesn't seem right to me. Put a short time limit in there where kills still count after a death, and it'll all be good (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

I think the kill should be awarded when your adversary's or your plane suffers sufficient damage to render it un-flyable, I.E. wing totally gone, back of plane shot off...etc.

Wobble, people STILL KILL ME when they lose both wings or stabs, they ALWAYS SHOOT MY BOBMER DOWN AFTER THEY ARE GONE!
