Title: Buff Damage Model
Post by: BGBMAW on January 03, 2003, 08:31:34 PM: Ok HTC..this was not fixed fully in the latest update...

A spitfire made a SINGLE pass.....all 3 of my 17' sexploded...this was after i took a 1/ 2hour to get to 20k....

This is seroisly a flaw somwhere..and is very "unfun"...

Any response would be apreiciated as we need to have bomers flying..cuase they were amajor part in WW2.....i love to see them..fly them..shoot them and shoot from them...

Love BiGB

But what if the original pop was a pilot kill?

Post by: hazed- on January 04, 2003, 12:12:00 PM: HT i also managed to shoot down 2 heavies by firing at ONLY the centre bomber. I was firing loads of 20mm and the lead b17 exploded then the second one exploded as the graphics seemed to be attempting to update the bomber position to where the b17 pilot obviously saw himself.

could it be a lag problem , as in as the bomber pilot loses his first bomber and it dissapears he is immediately put into the second one but from the attacking players veiw the 2nd bomber seems to replace the first and so all the bullets fired at the first hit the 2nd and 3rd and so on?

At least this is what it looked like from my end.

Also HT if its of any use to you I have a film of me in b17s where the port b17 catches fire and eventually explodes but suddenly my last B17 showed flames from the same engine but they were not animated.In otherwords my final b17 had a static graphic depiction of the right inboard motor being on fire.I had no fuel and was gliding at the time. I switched the engine off and on (without success as fuel dry) to see if this affected the burning but it just stayed like it.I didnt explode so i assume it was a graphical glitch.The weird thing was the other guy who was shooting me also saw the flame and waited to see me explode.I called over the radio to tell him it wasnt burning and he finished me off.Could this point you in the direction of a bug? if so ask for the film and ill send it although it might be fairly big , havent checked it.

Also, when I was flying a formation of Bostons, I had alt-tabbed back and forth a few times upon RTB. It must have updated my main buff's position beyond the silver thread because both drones exploded upon reentering the game.
