Well, that's not exactly true.

When two capital class ships collide (Currently, anyway) they get totally veered off course, and take about 33% damage. It's pretty cool to see it happen actually.

So you avoid all the clipping problems by having them repulse off each other? Sounds like a good way of handling it.

Re: What happens when ships collide in BF2142 engine?

I remember when i played the beta or demo and "drove" the our titan into the enemys, pushing all of them off of the launch pad with the shield. I think we could even shoot them as they spawned.

Ah, good times.

Re: What happens when ships collide in BF2142 engine?

Take two objects, (say 2 water bottles) move them towards each other at a normal speed until they hit and kinda bounce off each other, thats pretty much exactly what happens. Except they also take damage on impact.

Just giving them a way to try it out for themselves in case other explanations were not clear.
