Make it so you can't command soldiers to destroy your rallies

So I run multiple engineers in my squads occasionally, and I like to have them set up my rally points. I’ll order my spare engineer to set up the rally point and my soldier says “Let’s set this up!”
With this statement, I assume that he’s talking about completing the rally point, but turns out, the command was to destroy it.

I don’t understand the strategic importance of destroying own rally point. The most I can think of is if someone mines your rally. But if you command your soldiers to destroy your rally, they’ll likely get blown up in the process anyway. And you can always shoot the mine.

Plus you can instantly destroy your rally point if you have an engineer equipped without being near it.

I once destroyed my own rally point because i commanded my bots to stand near it.

Regularly have this exact problem

Not quite sure but I think that destroying your constructions gives you back some materials.
When your team is capturing stuff as fast as you’re building RPs, you can run out of those pretty quickly :grin:

Saw that a couple of times too :sweat_smile:

Good point, I haven’t thought about that. But if I’m low on materials, I’d probably destroy other stuff. The fact that I’m low on resources means I have built a lot of things, so that means plenty of stuff to destroy.
