auto switch bases when white flagged
« on: April 03, 2017, 09:50:07 AM »
using the staged missions, or possibly open play, have a setting that will allow bases to change hands at white flag. I'm guessing the idea behind the troops is to tell the base who captured it and that's how it knows which country to switch to, but the question was posed to me for a couple of AVA combat immersive events we'd like to try. just asking.

  The requirement of running troops means you can't just destroy it.  You have to walk in and take possession.   Otherwise a high altitude flight of bombers could roll a bunch of bases without ever having to set foot on the ground.

he is talking about admins using this in the ava arena NOT in the mains.

-1000 then what would be the use in playing if you could just white flag a base to win it.
2nd question  why are people always trying to win something without paying for it?

maybe we're trying to do something that involves bombing bases and towns and autoswitching bases would keep someone from having to manually switch the base to the other side.
maybe........ and fugitive is correct, its nothing that has anything to do with the mains.

The Ideal is a good one We are trying to make some new changes and improve the way to play in the AvA We all like the Historical Matches and all but we would love to see new blood and not the good Ol Boys Club.  So I think when a Country Takes a base and it is Wf they then get ownership of that field once the troops make it to the map room. I would like to also see it take more then just 10 troops to win the Field or we would have people Rolling the Map everyday.


Just my 2 cents

but +1 for taking ownership
