Easy way to test is to ram two spitfires together :)

Nice, I think I could even sell some tickets for that event.

This happened to me also, but I chalked it up to that old flight sim bug (happens a lot in 1946 also) where the aircraft that is going faster at the collision will survive, and the slower gets the damage.

my opinion: learn to fly guys and stop to use your fighter like a hammer... it is not his rules! :D :D :D

but more seriously. i never notice this... but maybe the spit structure is more resistant than other plane? no?

do you try different collision with different angle?


and for people who said that collision in 1946 depends of speed it is wrong;.. when two plane colide... both are damage... or depends of resistance of each plane.

It's not wrong, Esmiol. It's well known bug and widely reported. I have several .ntrk showing this phenomenon...slower aircraft totally destroyed, faster one completely intact. It doesn't happen often, but it does happen.

Interestingly my observation was that the slower one gets away unharmed. At least I always got damaged when diving upon someone and misjudged the moment to disengage. Or this is how I remember ... perhaps wrong. But there had been definitely a speed thing there.

For as long as I remember it was always the faster plane, which took more damage in 1946. The slower planes sometimes didn´t even notice the crash, while the faster one went up in a fireball or lost a wing etc. Don´t know about the mods though...
