I am no advocate for OP small missiles, I have always been small blaster man and always will be.
Reposted from elsewhere, it is my previous post and perfectly explains the issue.
Before 1.8 you could have all gunners shoot directly forwards without taking damage from the missile is it were to hit the side of the ship. Video evidence: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4opd_L8EoO0 http://youtu.be/4opd_L8EoO0?t=3m23s Go frame by frame, you can see the missile exploding on fire but it doesn't hurt the gunner, whereas now it does.
Now, after 1.8 your gunners take damage when firing forward if the small missile hits the ship. Video evidence: http://youtu.be/zEPJX3k_WG0?t=1m44s Happens to both gunners http://youtu.be/zEPJX3k_WG0?t=5m1s Right gunner is taken down, if you go frame by frame you can see the missile exploding as the shot is fired then you can see the health of the gunner going down.
I had reported this earlier at the start of 1.8 but it all got swallowed up under the cloak and scout AND heavy QQ.

+1 Yea, that's an unnecassary hindrance for extra turret vehicle gameplay. While hitting targets and stayin' alive should take skill, just not by that.
People would enjoy Dust a lot more if they accepted the fact that EVERYTHING is subject to change

We actually put out a change in Hotfix Charlie that should help with this, but it wasn't mentioned in the patch notes due to the nature of the change. Have you tried flying with gunners since then?

I can confirm that this is still happening in Charlie. It happened to my gunner just yesterday, August 24th. This is even worse in factional warfare as even if the gunner isn't killed, enough friendly fire to the ship itself can get them kicked out for the whole day. |

Killed myself yesterday like a noob firing from a dropship. I can confirm this is still happening. |

The following comments seem to verify that it is not as yet fixed.
And so it goes.

Clipping still happens and does lead to gunner friendly death pretty often. Since I fly proto missiles, I can only advise having gunners in heavies with higher reps.

Small Missile turret projectiles shouldn't be testing for collision with the mountbase (i.e. the dropship) anymore.

So it should be shooting through the dropship?

Technically yes, although I imagine it will be coded to not fire if that situation arises. Will test with my gunners today.
Rest in peace, oh Captain, my Captain.

The mount turning restrictions (which haven't changed) should prevent you from deliberately aiming through the dropship.
Also, has anyone found the missiles hitting the dropship when firing in any direction other than forwards? If yes, what other directions (forwards in this context is forwards for the dropship)

not sure but I believe it happens most I have the ship flying at a higher rate of speed, ship tilt as I am turning and moving towards the target as the gunner shots hitting the bottom of the ship? or maybe I am traveling fast enough that the ship catches up with the projectile?

Or maybe an other passenger?
