Interesting - the difficult part of this will be digging up someone with the skill and willingness to update this.

At the very least it should prolly be mentioned.

I once bombard an IC ADV EXP for 3 minutes straight with XRM cruise - and ever missile went through the hole. Quite funny
I'm sorry I don't remember any of it. For you the day spideycw graced your squad with utter destruction was the most important day of your life. But for me, it was Sunday

I once took 3 racks to kill. Team was pissed, since as a result I didn't have enough abs for their home.

On a related not. Rix refs have a similar problem. I once tried to sb one from the side, and 7 missles tracked to go above it. Then I died. Thats when I learned I was a noob.

Should also be added to CDT, if it isnt fixed.

How difficult would it be to re-center the bases that have this issue?
Would this cause problems with the doors and collision boxes? Would they have to be re-alligned?
Is this all just a matter of finding someone who knows how or is willing to do it?

To re-center the base, you'd have to re-center the entirety of the base - including the CVH. A re-centering may or may not work, depending on how drastic it is.

Couldn't the hitbox just include a tiny cube around the center point?

Than we have invisible base parts back again, which we removed before... ;)

Well one solution is to give ABs even LESS tracking, but this doesnt solve XRMs
