We need to be able to destroy friendly rallies

I think that is not difficult to achieve, even a lot of hard work may not be required. As they have AI and AI can route itself to objectives on maps, one way is traverse the map and place an AI on every possible location, and the locations that AI spawned there did not reach objectives in 10 minutes can be marked as “stuck”.

@robihr How workable is this idea from a professional programmer’s view?

One where somebody else wants the points, they’ll destroy yours and just replace it with theirs.

I think this is a very very bad idea.

It’s a griefers dream

i am perfectly aware of this. fast fixes that they should be able to do in 5 minutes are delayed by months/years, not to mention complex mechanics like this. i have feeling like they are severely understaffed and that they need 3x staff that they have now to actually fix his game.

All that extra staff would just make more premium squads, and bipods will still not work in 2077

Well it’s hard to avoid trolling the team by destroying good rally points. I feel you as some of the rally points are useless and unusable as your bots are stuck into Attic.
It’ll be hard to give players the choice between good and bad as some trollers would abuse this situation.
Just a hint: use the rally one time and avoid it. Yes i know it’s a soft hint as most players will continue to spawn there but that is all I can say right now.

everything can be made workable, just that everything doesnt justify time put into it. this is question of engine and its capabilities. if there isnt ready made solution available in engine, then it means that someone needs to spends work hours programming that capability + testing and debugging.

i feel like dagor was bad choice for making FPS when mature engines like unreal/unity were available as alternative.

In terms of code reliability, definitely yeah. In terms of performance, if they can optimise it to the performance level of Ready or Not, then good enough.

Graphics cards are so expensive now, if they can not invest enough on optimisation, then trade performance for easier coding may not be a good idea.

Let us guess what secret solution is under consideration or development.

No really, I have no clue. I am speaking for myself in my personal opinion as a player right here.

Idk it opens the door for someone to destroy your rally only to build their own and get the points

100% with you on that Schleck. It’s a very risky road to go down allowing others to destroy your rally points.

100000000000000000% agree

Problem is, the same guys who now troll by doing this, would start trolling by destroying rallies instead. This is not a good solution. We need the people who do this intentionally to face repercussions.
