Commander jeep spawn/ vehicle timer

Post by Deathangel_321boom »

Couldn't find a post already /its not on the pre suggested list as impossible, and its actually already in BF2 in a way. Maybe this should be in vehicle feedback, commander feedback or suggestions but I can't post in there yet.

Would it be possible and or a good idea for the commander to be able to have a countdown to the respawn of assets such as helicopter and armour spawn? (my bad if thats already implemented but I dont believe so) Then they could tell the squads responsible or advertise for a pilot/crew for when theyre ready? Obviously its not going to change the game but could be a minor help, as for the reality aspect a CO would be expected to know the situation with resupplies I believe



Secondly would it be possible for him(/her) to make the decision to spawn an extra unarmed jeeps or transport trucks at main for the standard or even slightly higher ticket cost at a rate of every few minutes? Perhaps unneeded if the first is possible with jeeps too but sometimes if theres no FOB yet and people have managed to destroy or leave some vehicles behind and no transport is available and it's harder for SL's to determine how long they may have to wait for the vehicle (or two if theyre small such as the armed jeep) for their squad to move. In this way the commander could for example spawn it for a infantry squad and order them to take a supply truck and build a new FOB
-I can see the argument that this would be less punishment for getting vehicles destroyed but its especially annoying if you join a large open map and the teams already taken all the vehicles and the APCs are down/uncrewed/far away, the ticket cost could be increased to make it a strategic choice by the commander.

Interested in your thoughts... :idea:

Some modifications to the vehicle drop feature in bf2 might work?

I sure like to see the commander get a little more power but it would be catastrophic if he doesn't do his job right...

I think it's good the way it is right now for ins and AAS. CnC on the other side could draw some advantages of this, being able to spawn vehicles by firebases etc. etc.

Yeah I was thinking if in vanilla he can parachute them in that kind of script might be possible, maybe not taking tickets away though?

Not at FOBs just main bases was the initial idea. At one point they did spawn jeeps on FOBs iirc...

Not sure about your first suggestion...but the second has been suggested before.

Also this is not the suggestion forum. As you probably noticed you can't post in the suggestion forum until you get at least 25 post count.

This time is to do research into what ideas have already been suggested and which are hardcoded. Please know that there is nothing wrong with your suggestions, ut they do belong in their proper section.

Well I did say in my post I cant post in the suggestion yet so I put it here either to guage opinion or let a admin possibly move it over, you mean I should wait and post when I have a higher count?

And I didn't see the second on the hardcode listI'd have thought it was possible using the vehicle drop coding but I guess not then

cheers anyway
