Self deconstructing vehicles? - Page 2

A vehicle should despawn 60 seconds after it loses its owner, but otherwise should remain intact indefinitely... or until it asplodes.

Don't forget that every pulled vehicle should gradually reduce the timer of the previous vehicle. I don't want my CY spammed to shit by some semi-hacking semi-griefing cock.

The empire however will still benefit from the said vehicles, maybe even use them as main spawning point for an attack. Having the attack fail due to auto deconstructing would be bad game mechanics.

Well those can stay then of course. What they could do is that those vehicles deconstruct if their support abilities aren't used for s while. Around 30 minutes maybe?

Perhaps a deployment feature, so when deployed, a vehicle won't decon.

Although this problem could be easily fixed, or majorly cut down at the very least, if you needed a cert to drive vehicles. Nothing much, maybe 30 mins real time training and you can drive a vehicle.
