Merl should aim at ghost sites

[DeinFreund]

If no (hittable) targets are available they should shoot at random unit ghosts within range.

This will also help with the issue of turrets atop of hills being unspottable because of radar/los checking for ground visibility instead of unit visibility (raytrace). Once the turrets are revealed, they'll now be hittable, even if they're shielded from both LOS and radar.

I dont like that, that wills ignificantly nerf features like radar jamming.

[DeinFreund]

No need to have it in the game for everyone, but I'll most likely use it for myself.

[Licho1]

I understand your point. My stance has always been that if widgetery hampers the gameplay too much, It shall be blocked.

Licho the mechanics allow force fire at the ground so it should be allowed. @DeinFreund you've got to figure out how it actually make a widget which does this.

[Licho1]

If it allows them to force fire, its up to human to weight it and apply it (if he has skills). No reason to automate that imo.

[DeinFreund]

It will be about as dirty as the offender attack spam script, but as long as it "works"..

I'll post an update if I manage to get an advantage from using it.

[Licho1]

Imo that the automation is possible is no argument. We should not automate everything and we are reaching limits. It's possible for widgets to take over entire game, that should not be our goal.

Force firing at a given ghost is imo interesting decision that should be kept on the player and not automated
