Option to set ShockWave blocks Shots

Yeah im sometimes thinking of a SW which blocks normal Shots (not SB or L).
Would be a nice feature.
Maybe u make it with a option _shockBlocksShots [1/0] or so, so that u can set ur preferred method.

Too powerful, each flag has to have a weakness. Sw would be the "God" flag if that where possible.

I agree completely with Blizzard. Shockwave is already one of the more powerful flags, so whats the point in making it even more powerful?

i think thats a good idea as long as it only blocks Normal shots and NOT Laser or other shot

Too bad most people only fire regular shots without finding a flag by the name of Laser or Super Bullet. I agree with Blizzard, this implementation would be too powerful, and too map specific. This and similar flags have been suggested before and rejected.

Try reading the wiki before you post things such as this as well. http://my.bzflag.org/w/Flag_Ideas
