Problems

We need to come up with an elegant way of handling the swapping in & out of substitutes. It has been suggested that one designated person on a team should have control of whether a person should be swapped out, and a substitute brought in, but this causes a problem in itself.

  • How would one designate this person? (queue? priority assigned? What happens if a soldier lags out and a medic is the #1 priority sub? Problem!)
  • What happens if this person lags out and requires replaced?!
