Recalling/Calling in vehicles is being abused in many cases. Redline RG tanks often call in a second tank, and recall the one they're in immediately when they are shot at. There should be some sort of penalty for that. Here's what I propose
When calling in a vehicle you should pay a relatively small fee for the RDV delivery.
CALLING IN VEHICLES
First vehicle: Free
Vehicles 2+: 15K + 5% of vehicle cost
RECALLING
First recall: Free
Vehicles 2+: 5% of vehicle cost
Not only would this help to reign in tanks a bit, but also fits very well lore wise. Calling in vehicles from space in RDV's at the push of a button wouldn't happen without a cost.

Good initiative, bad judgement. It'd be better to have a timer set to calling in vehicles. Only one vehicle per merc for a 3 minute timer. Recalls reduce the remaining time by x amount.
Best PVE idea I've seen.

I really like the idea but what about having the counter reset if you get your vehicle blown up?

I've been thinking about this a bit more.
I still think this is a good idea.
But I'd probably remove the recalling fee.
A delivery fee would still be good for calling in vehicles by RDV
Either as a % of vehicle cost, or by vehicle category.

I don't think we should pay for an RDV delivery at all. Just increase the time it takes to call in a another vehicle after returning a previous one. |

Timers would be better than ISK cost. You're already paying for the vehicle.
Other ways you could tweak this abuse would be requiring you to return to the redline to recall your vehicle, making vehicle recalls part of the RDV queue, so they have to wait for an available RDV to pick them up, and disabling a user's ability to call in a vehicle while one of their own vehicles is already on the field, and of course, a delay after recall to calling in a new one.
I'd like to be your CPM1 candidate

as long as theirs a way around it like a garage or warehouse that you can go grab it from instead of a fee
It'll help define roles, i promise:)

15K is practically what half of my vehicles cost. Also, why not just require being at a supply depot to recall (or say, directly underneath the MCC)? This would eliminate the recall problem without financially hurting those of us who have crappy vehicles and suck at driving them.

the issue is that people will call in a second one and then recall the first one after. They sit in the same position not having to restock.

The solution to that problem is simple: While a vehicle that you spawned remains on the field, you cannot call another. Problem solved.
