Co-op Campaign

we also have this issue. our work around is cntr group

Would require I guess a team player that doesn't instantly die without units (and can therefore start without any)?

Might teamspec and backup players help with that ?

(With a teamvote to move players between *normal*, *coop*, teamspec and *backup*... and perhaps a one-way spectator ?)

An idea : change XrayHaloSelections so that its color is the *average* of all of the coop allies selecting that unit.
Would prevent the clusterfucks when there's more than two players co-oping, like this 4 players example.
(better, but probably more work : make the selection a "pie chart circle" instead of average.)

Mumble integration : spectators are linked to team channels - they can hear whats said in team channels, but team players cannot (same as chat works).

Unfortunately due to the way stuff is implemented in Spring I believe it is far easier to merge players (by removing one) than it is to separate them.

The selection rank zero works fine in AI War, so I would say it'll probably work well here.

(You can easily click on stuff to select it, or drag select a bunch of endangered ally units, but in cases where you both have units it's almost impossible to select them by accident because all of the selection tools preferentially go for your own units)

If that's easy, try that first by all means!
