If you are in a turret of a hummer or MEC truck or a mounted mg and are killed, it says you lost it and you get points deducted. The truck/mg is still there. I haven't tested this with other vehicles so I am not sure if it's the same with all vehicles.

hehe forgot about this issue .. ty for reminding us, will get a coder to look into it for 0.4.

It is a bit of a problem with our new armor control model because there is a driver AND a gunner in tanks (as well as a cupola gunner) so will have to see if we can do anything about this... it might get complicated :p

Could always disable the points loss for losing a vehicle until you guys can fix it.

Are there flow control conditions in coding? Because you can do something like this: IF player dead AND vehicle dead WITHIN 10 seconds THEN player point loss. You can do that in some map editors for NovaLogic games.
