ummmm ... you may find coffeee helpful.

I guess I am almost a 'vet' by now. Hopefully not too bitter and managing to help more than I hinder. I build and sell many things, including large collections of bookmarks.

I think I figured it out.
OP is asking about how wreck color is determined...and he/she specifically mentions "having read about a dev saying most dmg determines" it.
So, for those of you who know about this stuff, what determines who becomes the owner of a wreck?
Is it the person who did the most damage, or is it the person who gets the last blow in?

I don't always post on the forums, but when I do, I prefer posting with my main.

Actually, you are totally right.

And I hereby excuse for being drunk while posting the thread~

Final blow determines color. So in a contested incusrion site the one who has the most wrecks is not always the winner.

This ^, however in certain cases wrecks can imply who is getting the most damage as last blows happen on an unresisted platform (hull) and therefore kick a lot of damage. Again that could also just have been a hull with 200 hitpoints remaining.

So rule of thumb - in an "even" wreck coloring up to several wrecks in difference with the same classes. There isn't much of a chance you can determine it. In a "Our fleet has one white wreck, rest are yellow" <-- it's a pretty good hint who won.

But really, just wait for the site to finish and see who won. Lol
