I think you start default at 1500-2000m in the air, no matter what map you're on I believe. Has anyone tested this on a map where base area is higher than 2000-3000m?

I think its a great idea; if you die, it takes time for the commander to make you a new ship. also, it would prevent the type of rush where the commander queues up a bunch of empties and everyone just goes at the recy. Also good if your base is being mortared, I cant remember how many 1.2 games where i'd be repeatedly spawn killed by mortar splash damage.

Bit too high, i think so too.

It should be high enough so the "express ride" back to base is a disadvantage.  Getting youself killed on purpose should not be a valid tactic.

You only start high if you lose your little bipedal self...which is easily avoided.

I also think its a good idea to spawn high.
As mentioned; to avoid repeated death by motar, give greater drop radius (less predictable, more choice on where you land), etc.

Do you mean this?

- Made respawned pilot height in Strat/MPI vary based on kill distance
from "home base." Deaths further in the field are punished more. [NM]

Seems like another "vet"-skill to master. Die near home, not only for the time, but for the scrap. No one can hate it now.
