tbh once the beacons were set up it would make all the normal telesci shenanigans absurdly easy, especially for ai
i'm assuming that beacons would make it so all telesci uses gps coords and no offsets if set up
sure, it'd require crew cooperation to get set up but like, once it's running you'd be able to fly over people/objects, get their gps coords, and instantly teleport them without either : putting the coords in a calculator or using a DWAINE script that applies offsets to gps coords automatically
currently unless people have dwaine scripts for it, putting it in a calc to get offsets adds an extra time delay that makes it a bit harder to pull off cheesy things
it'd be fun though, would definitely slightly lower the barrier to entry in some ways and force people to go out to wherever the beacons are supposed to go
i agree that it'd make hellburns more difficult - the current "rush magic gas" stuff is necessary but not super fun for anyone involved since it is just a rote "run to a specific easy to get to spot every round" that the only real barrier is "knowing where you're supposed to go"
