When you capture a base the marine / engineer is removed from play.

He was just stating, in case there was any question, if that would still be the case.

I LOVE both these changes! So awesome

I see this as greatly affecting bots on team play (who will swap bases back and forth if no more ports to swap back and forth)

Out of curiosity what was the reasoning for this? I know on a few select team maps it would be nice to have a team mate near me but that's maybe 1 in 10 maps.

I think it is a good feature, that will give teams options to evolve different army-compositions and tactics. I agree 100% that the bot should not be able to cap friendly bases.

There must also be an option to kill/remove/take over friendly remaining units if a team mate is killed/removed/surrendered... so his units are not blocking his team.

XAVI Sounds fun, could we have a feature to toggle off the flashing green please too ... I personally find it a distraction ie flashing slimer green although I'm sure a lot of ppl will find it useful.

Thanks

Earth

Was there a change? A few updates ago if a team mate surrendered the game is lost for team.

Yay Question, how does this effect teams where one member has beta and another doesn't. Would teammates still be able to capture allies bases?

Please tone down the green Xavi.. it flashes hard on the eye, and it looks like all units have got the plague

I agree with sims here, the green is a bit much. I like the concept, in that you're trying to modify how to show which units have already moved, but in my opinion a different approach is needed

Why not put an option where you can choose if you want the green or not? I personally like the way it is. But maybe an option in settings makes more sense? We get the option if we want to display the terrain benefits.

I've an idea

How about instead off all unmoved units flashing how about it the flashing toggles on after you hit end move button showing how many units still haven't moved? Then if you wish to find the unmoved units you can see them better?

Example

I've 10 units I move 8 of them and hit end turn. I get the 2 units still have actions end turn or go back to my move. If I select the latter the remaining 2 units will then be flashing

I like the premise. Since basically it's a lot more important to know as you near the end of your turn.

An on screen button to toggle this off and on I believe would be ideal.

But, since I'm on iOS I haven't seen this yet. Just based upon the description I feel like this would be best...... Though adds to UI so I don't know. Hate to clunk up a UI :/

Agreed that the blinking green is confusing. I thought that the old way with greyed out units was fine. But maybe I'll get used to it, new isn't always bad.

Does seem that notifications are not working though. I'm on Nexus 5 running marshmallow.
