[0957] Kiowa struts take excessive damage

Psyrus · 2010-10-26, 08:51

Probably known but I searched and nothing was apparent.

Having flown the various strut based choppers for a while, it appears that the Kiowa takes far too much damage upon landing, with even a feather-touch landing giving it a slight bump of damage. Coming in as I would with the old littlebird has actually caused it to explode on 2 occasions (luckily just on local practice), and as such I think it is a bug, especially since the hueys do not experience the same defect.

Maps tested on:
Karbala
Kokan

humm, possible the wrong material on the skids?

EDIT: yep, looks like the wrong material was applied to the skids, for some odd reason its using the penetrable cloth material hehe.

Nice catch, cheers for reporting

EDIT: Although it looks like someone has already fixed it for the patch
