assigning Vtols to a rearming pad

Post by Darkblade »

At the moment, when vtols finishes their attack run, they select a random rearming pad. This can be extremely annoying in some cases. As example, if you have 10 scourge vtols as defence on a vtol strike tower, with rearming pads nearby, and about 30 vtol bombers near the backside of the base, the bombers will after a run try to rearm themself at the scourge pads, just because its the closest vtol rearm pad nearby (i hope it makes sense >P). This in turn makes your scourges land all the way in back in the base. Needless to say, if something starts attacking, they be late.

Therefore it would be handy if you can assign a specific pad to a specific vtol, altho it doesn't seems to allow you now (unless i am very dense, i couldn't find it tho)

But what if you want more than 50 VTOLs?

Well, all non especially assigned vtol pads could be used for random refills.
And maybe assign a group of vtols to a group of pads?

There should be an option for a player to choose,if he wants to assign then its his right to do so.
