Spawning from different hangers on V bases?
« on: June 16, 2010, 08:16:14 AM »
Lets say one of your countries vehicle bases are being attacked, people start spawning up at that base to defend it. the problem is an enemy vehicle has gotten position to fire on any vehicle that spawns up in the hanger. I was just curious if it was possible to spawn up in one of the other two hangers?  to select which hanger? Maybe even go as far as only being able to spawning up in hangers that are still up?

I thought that just might add a little more realism to the game, than just spawning up in a fireball of a hanger.

We talked about this a little while ago.  I agree with being able to spawn from different hangers to help prevent camping the main hanger.  HiTech had a reason why he wont do it but I don't remember what it was.  In any event I liked the idea then and still like it now.

+1  Although the joy of killing a camper is never dull.  You may get me 2-3 times, but you darn well better take the field, because you will not land those kills otherwise. :devil

We've never had this ability, if we did it would have never been taken out.

You did not hear that from me.

But I doubt I will change it. There also are big down sides. If I were to change it, I would just make multiple spawn points at the field, and let you choose where to spawn instead of random.

This is a quote from a previous thread regarding this issue.  The big downsides were never explained in that thread so im not exactly sure what they are.

actually yes if you typed .fly2  or .fly3 u would spawn at a different hanger

reason it was removed was probly because u could spawn a fighter in the bomber hanger

I like the idea, and would actually not mind if HTC were to make the base spawn exactly like a feild spawn where you are centralized in a certain area, but it's spread out slightly. It keeps a single or 2 people from crippling base defense with thier Coleman sponsered GV.

It would be nice, but how would you set up the spawn choices from the Hanger.  :salute
