Better bunkers

I remember someone (sorry can't remember your name) came up with the idea of making every windowsill a "vehicle" so we could get in and fire from behind it with buffs like increased accuracy and a better defensive position. The reason we could not do this if I remember correctly was that it would be way too much work for something relatively meaningless. My idea is to instead do that to commander placeable bunkers and fire bases so they can be more easily fired out of. Just make the whole bunker one "vehicle" and all the windows as separate seats so you can easily switch between them. Any thoughts? EDIT: you could also do it to the commander's sandbag emplacements so people actually use them.

sounds like a good idea to me

sorry but thats not going to work i think vehicles cant just be placed as buildings. if someone rams it, it would move and also when you placed it, it would ''hover'' on none flak terrain. so no i don't think it would be possible

Ya that was me that suggested the idea TC was talking about and I agree with him on implementing it on just bunkers so it wont take as much time IF it can be implemented properly.

It's not an actual vehicle its just enter-able. like the back of a jeep where you can fire out with your own weapon. and why would it move the commander deployed AA guns don't.

What about the emplaced positions on sandbags like the VCP in al basrah? Those don't move when you ram them!

I think this could definitely work, I'm all for it.

You wouldn't be able to revive people when they got shot.

Plus, it would probably be tough to do/impossible to duck down if you're in a "vehicle" spot.

just give it the ability to duck down like on the mounted MGs.

Think of it as several mounted MGs on a spawned bunker. I don't think it would even be that hard, but someone with some experience would greatly be appreciated on this subject.

I think my previously posted idea of just putting MG's in the windows / sandbag parts of the models.
