[No Bug] Damage Model :/

[treg12]

photorealisic Graphics is great ... bloody good work, .. like on the F14.

 

Hoping the damage model will get some improvement ... killed a fishbed by disassembling its tail, one piece after another ... no scratch on the F4

(and no ... i don´t want to see my F4 to explode ... but maybe Radom coming of, Radar Kit damaged ... covers coming of, broken windshield or so on)

I already saw a lot of covers came of after explosion (SAM hit) but that was the end of the flight

despite this .. good work so far, keep it up HB

regards

Yep, also the G damage as it only breaks wings from 20G and also seems impossible to hung/damage/break the stores.

Other issue: when your rudder is ripped off by combat damage (only vertical stabilizer remaining) the control surface is still effective, you can yaw the plane without any problem.

This is what my F4 looked like after flying through/into a hail of 23 and 57mm ground fire.

The phantom currently has over 1500 failures simulated. This includes panels, systems, antennas, control surfaces, fluids, electrics, tanks and much more.

The radar cone can blow off, it just depends how and where you get hit. And by what.
G damage is modelled as well, affecting a lot of components. The Phantoms wings are known to not break unless you go way beyond whats reasonable. Before that happens, usually the engines would fall out of their holding and break - that actually happened to pilots IRL, unlike wings breaking apart due to G.

Please continue to play with it, I am sure you will discover that it is actually quite detailed and sophisticated :)
And if you find it lacking in a specific situation, please share that so we can tune it further, thanks.

 ... yes, so that is how my F4 could have looked after ramming 5 - 10 more migs out of the sky ... glad to see that the damage model is not  inactive
