Squad Leader Archive

Just came up with this idea as I was reading the world of tomarrow post, but wanted some feedback before I post it there.

The concept of Volleyfire lasting more then one round has been brought up before, but what about the ability to switch the squad's target entirely? Target something, hit the command, and everyone switches to that target. I think this has been discussed before to some point, and it has recieved bad feedback because other players would feel like SL puppets, so here comes the new part (I think): add to the game options "Allow SL redirection: Yes [ ] No [ ]", and have it that if yes is selected, the player will redirect if the target is in range. Could possibly add a Maybe option too, but that would be annoying cause it would most likely bring up a popup window.

That sounds pretty complicated. Last thing you want are boxes popping up in the middle of your screen when you are pv-anythinging. And besides, giving the option to ignore it makes it pretty pointless as I have no doubt that most people will pick that option not wanting to be (like to said) our puppets.

Hmm.. your idea's alright, but instead of the whole permission box thing how about the ability to paint your target a different color so that the rest of the group knows who you want to hit. After that, it's their perogative whether to hit it or not. That's something you could suggest to the thread
