Not sure if hsown % are accurate, yould be you had like uhhm 19.8% health just showing as 20%.

or someone made =< instead < in the code.

then I survived one with 9% and din't got it, so who knows xD

my guess is that the game rounds the % down (like when all the armor is green but it shows 99% health).
and the Achievement is to get below that. I thought 20% was enough. I could get shot a little toward the end :(

I've done that a couple of times too, you just have to work at it harder next time to drop that additional 1%. The math don't lie, 20 is not less than 20!

16.8 in the variable, that is rounded up to show 20% in the hood still is less than 20%.
weapons can do amages of like 0,1. this is what the game calculates and registers. in % on an atlas this is a very very low numbe, but the hu only shows 100-0%.
Think IT, not math

If you get that Low again, just ask an Ally (you trust) to give your Mech a quick pass with a Med laser on a Leg or Arm. ;)

Or jump off a high point to damage your legs (if they aren't on the verge of breaking already). I did that in an enforcer to get the achievement. Actually lost a leg doing it, but it worked!

As has been said before: less than 20 doesn't mean less than or equals 20. It actually means less than 20. Also i assume the health % is a Math.round(floatingPointHealth) so you probably had something between 20.0-20.49

Don't mess with me man, I'm a programmer ;) Yes its true _IF_ they are only going based on the integer value of less than 20 then it really means you'd need to be 19.0% or less to qualify, but not 19.1%.

Id lost my right arm and run out of ammo for srm6 in my panther.

I was just been an arse tapping jj and twisting the legs while looking at the last surviving enemy as I closed that range.

He was fully focused on me and got shot in the back lol

Won a medal for that ;)

But 19.7% rounds to 20 yet is less than 20%. ^_^
