Well Gentlemen,
Oleg and team,
It seems that every thing in Battle Of Britain - Storm Of War will be exceeding all expectations of the virtual pilot! But there is something that is making this simulator a combat simulator - THE EXPLOSIONS!!!
The explosions have simple logic - all physical objects fly away from one point in the middle of a imaginable sphere in equally retardant manner, and their trajectory is curved by the Earth gravity. Also air wave blast effect affects all objects around.
Will we see such magnificent EXPLOSIONS with all debris and earth peaces flying in to the air hundreds of meters in to the sky, as we can see them in to the old WWI and WWII documentary films?
If real physics of the explosion is modeled the Battle of Britain will be the not only the Ultimate flight simulator, but also the Ultimate War simulator!
Here is what I see as basic points for developing realistic explosions:
1. Explosions in to the air;
2. Explosions on to the surface of water;
3. Explosions under the water;
4. Explosions on to the surface of the earth;
5. Explosions under the surface of the earth.
Oleg, just imagine 1000 kg bomb exploding 6 meters below the ground and hundreds of stones flying in to the sky, and slowly falling down. What a PLEASURE!
ALL THAT I MEANT IN MY POST, IS HERE / THANKS TO Tone71!!! /
Enjoy the real Battle Of Britain EXPLOSION in seconds: 0:53 on this YouTube video:

"We again calculate real pices flying in different sides.
But with more complex DM it is now more accurate."
Thanks Oleg!
