Do you think it would be possible to manually load and unload frontlines? By which I mean: vehicles, blockades, mounted guns, etc.

I think this would make it really easy for players to start some big battle without having to spend 30 minutes to set it all up.

You mean DLC stuff?

No, the base game frontlines. The fixed locations at crossroads and bridges and such that spawn battle between the black hand and army of chaos

ah no

We will completely remove all of that

Server devs will have to place those if they want anything like it

Ah okay🙁

Implementing such things into the MP would be hard because we would need to reverse its specific logic

We would waste a lot of crucial time

I was hoping it'd be something like: we have to remove the frontlines assets, but we include a button that re-enables them

But alright, can't have everything 🙂

If we’re just talking about the objects like barriers and stuff, that’s probably more doable. Either by spawning them manually based on the game files or something else

Well, that's certainly a part of it. Even if that's the only thing you can spawn in, you only have to add some vehicles and guns yourself to have a decent battlefield

Yeah, you could definitely spawn in vehicles as well

I don’t think it’ll ever be a “flip this switch on for frontlines” but it should be possible with the scripting api eventually to replicate it. And then there might be a script that would be easy to install to do it

Yea this exactly

It will be possible but using scripting
