Would it be that hard to give them enough AI to make them not run into each other? How technically difficult would it be to make them detect other vehicles and avoid them, while still spawning the desired vehicle in the location selected by the player? maybe even refining the spawn locations to limit one vehicle within a certain radius of the player that requested it so two players don't spawn a vehicle in the same area, causing a collision. I've witnessed millions of ISK get taken by seemingly drunken bolas pilots. |

I'd like to thank CCP here. Bolases used to blow up when they hit eachother. Now, they just seem to bounce around like balloons. I've seen FAR fewer dropships/tanks lost to drunken RDV pilots with uprising than I did in chromosome. Dropships still have RDVs appearing inside of them, though. |

Sure the buff keeps the bolas from killing itself and other RDVs but it seems like a lazy fix that still leaves the vehicles they carry vulnerable. Just last week in a single match one of my fellow corp members lost 4 dropships to RVD drunkenness alone. |

I agree until it's my million ISK vehicle getting thrown around like a common death taxi. |

Had one spin around the same area over and over again for 45 seconds until it automatically released my vehicle. |

This. They should be able to code the Bolas's to automatically stay a specific distance say 5 - 10 meters away from any other vehicle or structure. |

I agree but..
then if two people spawn vehicles at the same time and same place the RVDs will push each other away from the exact spot the player requested it to be dropped. which im sure will cause someone else to complain. so you would have to have that and stop people from spawning vehicles in the same immediate locations. |

This. No need to fix. We immortal mercs need a good laugh every once in a while, especially when it's some other guy's 2 million isk.
If it was mine, then we've got a real problem.  |
