Why does Jugglenaut jump deal such low dmg?

I always thought if i am able to jump into a shieldball, a jugglenaut would wipe the units, but B806982 12 on EvoRTS-Deserted_Gully-v01 at 11:30 and 13:05 showed me otherwise. In my opinion Jugglenaut dmg should at least be high enough to kill all units out of the shieldbot factory and have either more impact radius or less damage falloff.

I do think Jugglenaut is a good unit, but I think that its jump damage is misleading. If there is 1000 dmg written on it, I expect units with 950 Hp to die.

I wouldn't have an idea to convey this in game any more than it is now, but I've gathered this.

Grav beam deals no damage, like other grav beams. Damage is physics based, determined by collision speed, Mass of both units. Bounce is based (soley) on the mid points of both units. The collision damage is like fall damage.
Jump causes a weapon like explosion.
The way the game handles jumps, btw, is important. Units follow a pre-determined path, moving at a pre-approval defined speed, in a forced way. The only way to stop a jump is unit death, impulse has no effect on units with jumpjets/jumplegs(which are for these porpus indistinguishable) and jumping units movement is set to 0 on landing.

quote: Is the damage higher for units that Jugglenaut lands directly on top of?

I don't think a jugglenaught can 'land directly on top of' another unit, so no. I'm not even sure if you can get it do deal exacly 1000 damage, but I don't test jugglenaught's jump damage much.

Crab has 4K HP, how could you instantly kill one by doing 1K damage?

Jugglenaut is dangerous enough already, thanks. Shieldballs flee in terror before it.
