Post by: mentalguy on February 25, 2006, 09:48:48 AM

What about Repair & suply vehicals.  have a tank or something drive up next to it and it automaticly repairs with out using vehical suplys. this could also be used for planes too. i think it would be a reason to add the
duese& a halve. what do you guys think about it.

Be nice if you ditch and could have a buddy drive out and pick you up, or give you oil or gas.

Back when Iflew in th Kadesh scenario it wa possible for cetian aircraft to fly out and land and pick up bailed out pilots using te .join command. I dont thnk it would work in the MA. But in ToD for sure.

Sorry, BlueJ, but those required a confirmation from the CM's. As did all the rescues in the canal in the following BoB (Aug'04?).

I know that. But it still worked.

It didn't "work" -- it was a jury-rigged system to simulate picking up other players. Players didn't join the PT, they towered (if I recall) and then when the PT landed successfully they went back through the logs and made changes before publishing the official results. There was in fact no way to stop the pilots from getting ditches/captures, but instead this was a "change the stats afterwards" type of system.
