We need a /stuck command.

Heck, it does not even have to unstick you.
Make it self-pop your mech and count as a suicide if you want.
Display it as Mylar killed Mylar via /stuck so people know what happened.


Granted, a functioning /stuck that moved you a little to get you going again would be great, but if you don't want to deal with the possilbe exploits do the suicide version.

The important part is that we have a /stuck command that reports the location back to you so you can fix the bloody holes in the map that causes us to get stuck in the first place.

Sniping from building tops in my Raven, I suppose I run into this more than most, but it happens to me a LOT.

Those pipes, the solar panels, radio antenna things.... jumping onto a building with decorations is dangerous, but not for the obvious skylining reasons, just because there is a good chance you will spend the rest of the match sitting there useless.

I'd rather pay the repairs of the suicide and know that you have the info to fix the hole than sit there for 5+ minutes waiting for the match to end, unable to leave because I'm not dead yet.

The problem would be suicide runner trying to exploit it

maybe have it do a 10 - 15 second count down before nudging you so you can't exploit it in a fight

LOL, Yes!

This happened to me, being stuck "in" the bridge of River City, the view was going up and down too, above the bringe, below the bringe, above the bridge, below the bridge, above the bridge, below, above, below... On and on until you plede to be put out of your misery.

(I have to admit however that other bugs are more frequent so that being able to reconnect after a crash/disconnect/video bug would be more frequently useful, but i feel your pain.)

you could press ESC and choose exit match, but you would like an automatic way to pinpoint the map bug, good idea

Hear Hear - only been stuck once but it was a pain.
A simple Suicide button that ONLY WORKS WHEN YOU ARE STUCK and confers no penalty would be awesome.
