Collisisons

[uberslet]

have to be remodled. there have been times i been on climb, lack of SA, and all of a sudden I[/i] collided with someone. i know how the collsion model works, but its lame wen you dont pay attention for 20 seconds on climb out and all of a sudden lose your vert stab and give some picktard a free kill cause you collided. I fully understand the collision model, but something has to be redone in it..

Grow up.

Until the internet is light speed with zero lag collisions will be the way they are. Period.

Try to pay attention next time?

btw, about 1000 previous collision whines didnt changed things, what make you think this one will work?

Light speed would be significantly too slow.  Right now the internet is 40-60% of light speed on average.  You would need something many times the speed of light to eliminate lag.

I would have to agree.  I know that there are limitations on the collision model, but it's still a bit odd to have a head-on collision and only lose engine oil...

I'd like to know why some planes fair better than others in a collision.

How does speed, weight, angle of attack, etc all play into it?  Or, is it just a "roll the dice" and pray type thing?

If you have an issue with the collision model. I suggest you look at the trainers website. They got pictures and all.

I'm still trying to figure out what a collisison is.

i know how they work, but i collide somehow when a dweeb in his pony is pickin me. i dont understand that, i know, its what your computer sees vs thiers, and it has to do with internet lagg, however why should i get the collision if someone else rammed me?

If he didn't take damage he didn't collide with/'ram' you. Period.

Because HE didn't hit YOU on HIS front end.

Cut and Paste from another thread.



Tangle's external from his front end the moment of impact.






Same basic angle external, tangle's view from my front end moment of impact.




How would you feel taking damage looking at your film and seeing tangles front end view, hmmmmmm?


I know I'd be pretty POed.

Edit: This also works nicely for the "none should take damage" people.

Yea I should be able to put the nose of my ac through another.
