Now, is this a bug or a feature?
Quote:
I was playing a quickie ASuW mission today. An enemy ship collide with an oiler. The enemy ship was sunk, and the oiler recieved a whopping 1% damage.
The damage inflicted in a collision seems to be determined by the mass of the ships and the speed of impact. If this was a PTG or something small, I'd say "feature." If it was bigger, maybe "bug."

Later the oiler sank, all the way to the bottom without showing up as destroyed.
Depends what you mean by "showing up as destroyed." Unless the playable platform delivered the killing blow, the ship's name should not appear listed among the killed platforms in the status screen. On the other hand, if "showing up as destroyed" means 100% damage indicated on the DDI, then it's obviously a bug. Subs have been sinking with less than 100% indicated damage after collisions and proximity damage. This would be the first report that I'm aware of where the bug occured with a surface ship, or with an AI platform.

It did dissappear after a couple minutes on the bottom.
Comic guy voice: Worst "feature" ever!
