Better kill credit for the person who actually destroyed an enemy ship

Kill being awarded to last hit in Naval mode instead of the person doing the most or the terminal damage is absolutely infuriating.

This is especially prevalent in games with bots using cruisers/destroyers which spray negligible damage HE shots from rapid fire guns against battleships with their 30-50 second reloads.

So many times. you deal terminal damage guy and leave him unavoidably sinking at low crew only for the kill credit to go a bot because it clipped it at the last second with a 100mm HE shot doing 0.01% damage while your guns were reloading.

Or the same when you hit a guy right in the ammo elevator. it takes 20 seconds or so for the fire to spread to its ammo stores and detonate the ship. in that time. guess what a random bot clips it again and gets credit for the kill when the ammo detonates.

And just general kill stealing between players.

Kill credit going to last hit is awful. Kill should go to Most damage.

Also add in a severe damage mechanic like aircraft realistic which kicks in when the persons crew is so low its no longer possible to prevent sinking.
