Remove 50m restriction for objective orders

Your squad will come back if it moves 50m away from you.

For many classes, especially snipers, this means you cannot play the objective. Even if some of your squad members could fight at closer ranges, the player has to stand a safe distance away from the battle while their squad is waiting behind the next cover object.

You can give a movement order by directly aiming at an objective icon. This function should omit the 50 metre limit for squad distance.

That would mean that suddenly, you can send all or some of your squad members to go and capture points instead of idling, and would especially benefit lower BRs where matches are often won by one side not stepping foot on the point, and where new players start with a sniper squad.

That’s how squad moves, you are not suppossed to leave more than 50m. from your squad leader. Even vehicle formations usually move at those distances.

The reason is once you set the order they’ll ignore all things and rush to the objective, even if there’s someone right in front of their face. And also they run in a straight line without using any covers. :man_shrugging:

§890. Art. 90. Willfully disobeying superior commissioned officer

Any person subject to this chapter who willfully disobeys a lawful command of that person’s superior commissioned officer shall be punished-

(1) if the offense is committed in time of war, by death or such other punishment as a court-martial may direct; and

(2) if the offense is committed at any other time, by such punishment, other than death, as a court-martial may direct.

By Law, as the superior commissioned officer of my squad, I have the right to execute any soldier who willingly disobeys a lawful command.

‘lawful’ being the keyword here. Soldiers may disobey orders they deem unlawful at the time they are issued.
Who is in the right is for the military judge to decide.

So… court martial squads when?

Being ordered to hold a vital defensive position for the strategic success of a mission is a lawful command.

If subordinate soldiers are mutinying and putting the success of the strategic mission at risk, then I am in the full right to detain or kill the mutineers if need be since I am in a warzone.

Having squad to stay put and not suddenly following you would be helpful.

Smaller troops movement would make flanking significantly easier and not get the entire squad kill when hunting tank.
