another form of greifing


what will happen if someone respawn, but doesnt move from their possition as another person trys to respawn at that tube?

Will the presumably AFK guy get tellefragged, or the newcomer?

Will it say all spawn tubes occupied if you have a squad of greifers in them and prevent people from spawning there?

Too many what if scenarios. What if this, what if that?

What if I was trying to run a guy over in a mosquito but missed and than I slid down a mountain into a lake! what if then!?

There is no collision inside of a spawn tube or inside of a warp gate bubble. Characters (and vehicles in the instance of the warp gate bubble) can interpenetrate each other in those areas.

Fictional rationalization: You are in a dimensional flux state in both of those areas, one in preparation for using the warp gate core for transition, and the other because you've just been rematrixed and are not quite stabilized yet.

Game rationalization: We expect a lot of players to be in both of those positions at the same time and we don't check collision in those areas to prevent the exact nasty bottlenecks you're describing.

SmokeJumper, does respawning hurt? As a followup question, is interpenetration as uncomfortable as it sounds?

Nice answer SmokeJumper, and technically sound as well. Nice to see you folks are thinking up reasons for things instead of just saying "because" as an explanation. Shows the amount of thought and dedication given by the devs to this game.
