    wow! someone has a lot of time on their hands! :p Unreal.....

    It'd make capturing the flag a lot more interesting, to say the least.

    How about a Splinter Cell feature; if a player gets close enough,and takes out the operator, he can turn it on the oppossing team....

    I have to stop playing that game.....:o

    Ah... but therein lies the challnge.. the sensor could be accessed by a code... or hacked using a minicomp interface... ANd do it all while under a hail of BBs....
    I'm making this way too elaborate way too soon aren't I? :o

    I was going to say I doubt it but a sentry that can be destroyed by bb fire (and later rebuilt by any 10 year old) would be pretty cool.

    There's a fair few motion sensor paintball ones.
    Some if they get hit they turn off.
    There's plenty of add ons too.
    So i say that there will be some airsoft ones soon enough.

    This is the kinda turret I want. Redwolf should make one, they'd fly off the shelves. If they used a PDA it could fit in a small case which you just opened, pressed a button and it could be ready to fire....
