The autoflip is a bug not a feature. I am trying to track down the reasons. I believe that I have found the source of the problem, but I need to do some more validation and there is no clear timeline on a fix.

Maps are the bane of any good action. when you can insta-port into any fight anywhere upon an OOC callout, you get the unlivable "map in zergs" on any server/timezone where there's a large population. The solution is to just give creeps some kind of parity for movement speed (just literally make March a mount clone).


"Hey you want to roam in small group?"
"nah no point, we'll just get map-in zerged"

"Hey you want to roam in small group?
"nah no point, any fight with the freeps will just get called out and map-in zerged"


Its one of those factors that leads to everyone balling up in a big lagout shuffle... the futility of escaping into smaller action because the big action will always hunt you down / ruin your fights for easy points.


Also: no one likes autoflips. no one.
