Since not one collision whiner has ever understood or accepted the explanations given them, regardless of the frequency of attempts, I assume that anyone who whines about the collisions is incapable of comprehending the phenomenon.  Therefore, I think it a reasonable recommendation that we all cease trying to make them understand and simply mock them for their unintelligence.

Not true. I both understand how they work and accept the explanations.

I only see how having them as they are now creating more problems and arguements then having them is worth

I see no problem having it.
You fly into my plane and go poof..... no problem.

You come to the boards and whine about it ... again no problem.

It's great entertainment either way.

Exactly, they only make problems for those too stupid to understand both their perceived problem and simple explanations of it as well.  Really, I'm a slow learner myself but Bronk's descriptions are so good that my six year old nephew could comprehend them quite easily.

LOL .what what i'm hearing is "yes, it's whacked and yes it makes sense" all in one breath *scratches head*  all i need to see.. still not perfectly clear why i "lose" 90% of collisions. Seems to me if HT sees a collision by my plane..it would see it on the other.. as for the examples shown... wouldnt both planes likely go down??    lost tail... busted prop.
just thinkin ..let the horse lie..it'll never expain the percentage.



    all,thx for the imput!

In those pics I see the two planes show different ranges from eachother. At impact one is 64 one is 66. Could that affect the outcome?

Collisions happen. Just up another pretend plane and get on with it.

I collided today. Lost every part of my plane. The other guy just flew off. It sucked and I was annoyed for a whole 10 seconds. My squadies listened to my verbal diatribe patiently but what am I going to do? Obviously we came nowhere near each other on his screen otherwise he woulda been down so me whinging about it woulda just looked dumb.

I have never connected with a plane on my screen and not taken damage.

I have never not connected with a plane on my screen and taken damage.

That's personal experience though.

If you're losing 90% of collisions, you're obviously connecting on your screen and therefore it can only be your fault.

HTC servers don't see any collisions, only us players do. Collision detection only happens on your FE (front end). Thats why you *lose collisions* because the other player's FE didn't detect a collision. This is also why it has nothing to do with how good/bad your connection is in regards to whether or not you actually collide with another plane.

Hope that made sense to you. :)
