Ram masking Oil, Bugtracker

We had a ticket on the bugtracker yesterday in regards to the ram being placed on top of the oil in order to make it harder to select the target. The ticket got closed and we were redirected to the forums.

My suggestion is to increase the Oil hitbox so that collision works better.

Now in regards to the bugtracker, I had a ticket with 4 kotbs bugs in it and it got closed with the suggestion to create one bug / ticket. I understand the OCD behind it, but bros I reported a bouquet of bugs related to the same topic, it wasn't 4 bugs split all over the place or on different topics, it was related to the same thing: kotbs. I thought it would make your life easier instead of jumping between various bugs, but have it your way.
I have done this multiple times in various companies with various developers on various topics and you can still track your time and actions easily.
But no worries, brace yourselves cuz a number of tickets will be raised now.

I know, and I love them for this. And agree with them. I just tried to summarize 4 similar issues under 1. It's ok, I raised them separately now.

Enlarging oil hit box would make it hard or nearly impossible to target oil team and oil operators. Simply implement dismount (or other form of ram spawning prohibition) in oilroom and there won't be any more rams masking oil ;)

You would think that players doing this would face in game actions. they are intentionally abusing an in game item in a way not intended. Would be the same as terrain exploiters etc.

There's a difference between not wearing a uniform or climbing up to a vantage point and squishing big ram thru narrow corridors and tiny doors of oil rooms ;)

I think "true" terrain exploiters and people who exploit in game items should face consequences, even if it is character based.
