BA: a dgun will dgun wreckage when you stand next to it

Here is the situation:
When there is a comwreck and an enemy starts sucking it too.. you walk your com beside and the a bit in front of the wreck and dgun their con.

But then a horrible thing happens, you dgunned half of the comwreck m away! While you though you clearly was standing a bit in front of the wreckage!
The problem is that the visuals doesn't match with the physics of the dgun weapon


Please fix this trap!

I'd quote "visuals" and the forum again, but I doubt many would get it.

This is caused by the ridiculous hitbox for the com wreckage. If fact, it's so ridiculous you can stand a com inside it and be protected from 90% of shots from rockos.

I think the problem was that you were reclaiming rather than resurrecting ;)

I think the problem is that you were not reading.

Ahhhh, it makes sense now. Thats why it can be hard to dgun t1 units that are very close to you and so easy to dgun a comwreck that seems to be behind you.

This happened to me like about 4 times in total, but I've learned my lesson well so it didnt happend to me for a quitte long time.

But the reason I post this now is that I just saw Intel (Phantom) do it who would be a ghost if he's not smurfing. So if even very experienced people can still walk into this trap......................... then fix it please

This is a problem of inactive development.

I took this screenshot months ago, I was going to make a report as well, but never got around to it.

Those rockets coming from the left and right never touched the Com. After this, I moved the Com closer into the wreck and the Storm were almost directly behind the Com and still couldn't hit it.

What, solars make much bigger difference than comwrecks. Bring 7.19 hitspheres back, though I don't know if comwreck was changed by that - it was huge before too.

This is simply another stupid feature that only catches out newbs, making them not want to play. There's no sense to it, get rid of it.
