Action Relay Exploitable

Not Enough Votes

It seems players at peace with each other can't connect Action relays to their friends base without letting enemies be able to trigger their signal as well since the options to share are Owner, Faction, everyone.

This makes it possible for someone to just fly around with a blasting signal triggering every single channel 1-100 within his radius trolling any neutral factions trying to work together.

Please either let us be able to share things with neutrals or at least make it not possible for players appearing RED dont have access to trigger neutral players actions.

Not limited to neutral factions:

The issue is neutrals are supposed to be people we have peace with. I would hope KEEN would make more of a distinction between Neutrals and Enemies when it comes to "Everyone". Just let us specifically choose who we want to share with without forcing us to put neutrals and enemies in the same bunch.

Hello, Zer0limit,

thank you for reaching our forum with this.

However, this is not a bug, as there would be needed new functionality or different approach to sharing etc.

There is nothing to fix now, really, as it is currently working by design.

However, I will move this thread to our Feedback section of this forum, where new ideas and such are presented, stored and evaluated.

Thank you for your understanding.

Kind Regards

Current system isn't worked / designed right to have these systems work with allied friends not in our faction. Please remove this wall against working with allied players. Currently it's a pirates playground.

Idea: You could get around this issue by using laser antennae to not have this issue.

Sharing any blocks with neutrals/allies is still risky since any blocks owned by "nobody" are still regarded as neutral. Neutral should be regarded as enemy or have an affiliation of its own, otherwise it can be abused as anyone, including enemies, can easily take control of a grid owned by nobody or even transfer their blocks to "nobody" as is the case for Keen official servers.

Creating an affiliation specifically for allies could also address this issue.
