It was not a bright idea to remove the ram dmg. Without fixing it Rulewise.

What if instead it just did massive damage to shields?
And then hull damage if your shields are down?

It already does that..

I am happy it got removed, that damage was the only one dealt to IMG| convoys in their whole run (random example now).

It actually created more annoying situation and rage(?) than the old system did from what I get.

I hate how whenever my Liner gets rammed I go flying. It's like the thing is made of PAPER. A light fighter hitting it causes it to go careening off into space.

FIX IT.

This is the main problem when players do it to you- you need to video them in order to sanction them.

Official faction players that are often accused of elitism, never deploy them and have those weird, immersion killing "fair fight/dueling" suicidal hobbies. (yes, i've seen enough of those lolduels, where house military with overwhelming force on the field willingly loses a pilot in a duel. ffs.)

Is it even sanctionable now? I liked the hull damage system we had before the last update myself.

The ramming rule has not been re introduced afaik.

Likely this was done due to the severe bugs with the collision system coupled with people blatting into things in trade lanes.

Which means I guess my cloaked barge collecting ore from ships that crash into me is out.

In large group-PvPs ramming dmg is utterly irking.

During convoys with bulky transports ramming dmg is a pain in the <strike>ass</strike> backside.

I hardly fly caps so this change is more of a relief than an annoyance for me.

Fine, can we please get the old rule of "No ramming in combat" back?
Because a single fighter can make a full cerberus Heavy Battleship lose a fight against light battleship in close combat, which should NOT happen.

[AeternusDoleo]

Spin protection in player versus player collisions has been set instead of ramming hull damage.
Relative masses of ships are still on the todo list, this is a major project for 4.87 which will take a lot of time.
