Did you read all of my posts? I don't know how you could of and still state that I am talking about someone trying to ram. I said that I am not at least twice.
Easy now. Yes, I read what you posted, perhaps though I misunderstood. What I got was you didn't like the current collision model as at times one flys away with no damage and the other gets damage. Is that correct?
If no, then sorry, my bad...
If yes, then I will restate if both took damage, it would be unfair because it's possible that one didn't hit the other plane based on their perspective. If both took damage because half of the two that hit saw it, and the other didn't, imagine the complaints? If both took damage in every collision event, then intentional rams would be the norm for those who will do
anything to win. Since the system works like it does now, and if I am correct in that intentional rams are not likely successful a majority of the time, then I feel it's a better system.
Regarding your edit:
Collisions will happen, and if someone gets lucky to hit a bomber, but not take damage themselves then it's pure luck. I ask you, how many times has it happened?
