Flying in formation just got a whole lot more annoying. Especially in asteroid fields.

I killed Montezumas Cruiser with my Bomber without firing SNAC but ramming him like the hell and reload.

I like this.
Much.
Now to pass asteroid field, or in fight or whatever else you need to care of collision damage.
A bit annoying, but big plus to realistics.

Fighting a different cruiser today, got down to 4 bars after his death, killed by a saber that rammed me almost instantly. Saber survived.
Half hull on an labc, died when a sorta with just a little health left rammed me. Poof killed us both.
A cruiser was in its death explosions, hit me and killed me.
I don't know if it is absolutly awesome or a terror, but I can tell you that the nose of a bomber just became more powerfull then its snac.
I did get a reverse kill on a sorta that was moving in. He was tail gating behind me, hit reverse and poof killed it. That was a YUS moment.

I agree. I didnt test it yet, but will do as soon as i can. Since we always use formation flight, with sometimes 4 shires formed on 1 gunboat, for example, this results in heavy bounces when only one of us has a lag spike.
This hadnt been a prob yet, but with the added hull damage it possibly may become. Ill check it.

Formation flight: Wouldn't it make sense to just increase the distance between formed up ships so that the possibility of hitting each other is reduced? Could be an easy fix.
And: even in reality formation flight is not entirely safe... so some collisions (not as many as now, I completely agree) can and perhaps even should happen.
