Prop blades no longer damaged on ground strike

[-0303-]

Reproduce: just brake and nose over.

Result: Prop strike, engine damage. Prop blades visually intact, not removed like they used to be.

 

Found old video by accident [2016]. Prop blade damage used to be more sophisticated. Half broken blades [

]

 

Not bothering making track (yet).

"Fixed" as of last patch 2.5.6.50726 Open Beta.

All four blades are removed (as opposed half the blades before it stopped working). Quotation marks because it's so ugly.

 

I wish for the half broken blades as in the old 2016 version (see

) consistent with Spitfire IX wooden propeller. Edited June 10, 2020 by -0303-

All 4 blades simply dissappear, when they touch the ground.

 

 

Where do they go?

Just to add image of what it should / used to look like. Wood propeller.

 

Joined DCS 2018. Never seen this prop damage until stumbling over

. Does this graphic still exist just "mutated" by bugs?

It's fixed. Now we have all four blades broken (every time it seems). Not bent, broken as in wooden propeller.

 

Props will stop in different positions. Damage seems static, meaning prop blades damaged identically each time. Fine, it looks nice enough, way more important things to address.

 

Note, I-16 does do different damage (both blades bent, one blade bent).
