Rolds Posted February 7, 2020 Posted February 7, 2020 Ok so this is more of a request than a bug, and a somewhat morbid one at that. If you run over infantry in a plane, like the F18, they die. If you try to run them over in a tank, like the M1A2, the tank comes to a halt and no damage is done to the infantry. It would be nice (and cruel) but mostly nice if we could have the same plane hitting infantry mechanic for vehicles hitting infantry.

Ran into one and did more damage to myself than the soldier haha Modules owned: FC3, M-2000C, Mig-21bis, F-5E, AJS-37 Viggen, F/A-18C, KA-50, Mi-8, F-14A&B, JF-17
bbrz Posted February 7, 2020 Posted February 7, 2020 If you try to run them over in a tank, like the M1A2, the tank comes to a halt and no damage is done to the infantry. Seriously? Must be a bug since the sole purpose of DCS for most users is to kill and destroy. i7-7700K 4.2GHz, 16GB, GTX 1070

Kang Posted February 8, 2020 Posted February 8, 2020 To be honest, both CA and infantry in DCS have a lot more serious problems than this, which while probably a bug I'd call more of a novelty case.
Grodlund Posted February 9, 2020 Posted February 9, 2020 Crushing people would be fine. I would however much prefer if they actually ran for cover, when a tank is overruning them. Not just stand around looking dumb while they are being mowed down, one by one, by a 12.7mm HMG "Your pumping days are over, Megatron!" -Optimus Prime "This calls for a very special blend of psychology and extreme violence" -Vyvian
Rolds Posted February 9, 2020 Author Posted February 9, 2020 One thing at a time I suppose, the vehicle hits infantry mechanic should be an easy fix since there seems to be an improvement in the taxiing aircraft hitting infantry already in game.
ED Team BIGNEWY Posted February 10, 2020 ED Team Posted February 10, 2020 Hi I am sorry but this is intended, moving armour and infantry together would be very difficult in DCS if we added collision for infantry with vehicles.

Wakeshift Posted February 10, 2020 Posted February 10, 2020 Hi I am sorry but this is intended, moving armour and infantry together would be very difficult in DCS if we added collision for infantry with vehicles. BIGNEWY, That does make sense and I can imagine a commander's frustration if friendly infantry kept getting killed. Is it possible to consider enabling the collision for dissimilar coalitions? Kind of 'best of both'?

Rolds Posted February 10, 2020 Author Posted February 10, 2020 I think wakeshift's idea sounds reasonable if it can be implemented relatively easily.
