Again I am not talking about any kind of warhead contact on the tank itself. I just referring to being frustrated about dropping a pair of 1000 lb bombs a dozen meters from a tank and having them survive (in IL-2 obviously) This used to bother me immensely but now it seems more reasonable. I still can't imagine it being undamaged, but the thing is that the game (very reasonably) doesn't have advanced damage models for ground vehicles, they are basically alive or dead.
Actually now that I write that I am curious how the damaging of ground units works exactly in IL-2. I said they were either alive or dead but I guess they must have some sort of "hit-points" or something since it usually takes multiple gun strikes to take certain things out. Does anybody know precisely how this works?
