Additional Notes

. Creators should be allowed to disable or enable aim assist on team, particularly when they have friendly fire

This is very annoying considering that most players use controllers and need aim assist, and it greatly limits the possibilities of team games.
A toggleable option in the Team and Inventory Device would be very useful.
Thanks

I don’t think that’s a bug it seems logical for Aim Assist to not want you to target your teammates even if you COULD deal damage to them. Seems more like a feature request imo, is there a specific reason these players are not in separate teams?

As @BDD_BalckBird say, it can be a limit for team games.
For example, I use class for defines class (logical) like “Warrior”, “Ninja” or something like this, with specifics equipment.
Now I want to have global groupe, like A/B/C to separe them in mini games, but mini game consist as kill other player, It can be really annoying to having the aim assist disabled in this cases

I admit I’m not sure if it can be considered as bug or request feature, it depending how you consider the normal behavior of this situation

Couldn’t you just use Class Designer Devices while Still Assigning players to teams by themselves eg

PLAYER 1: TEAM-1 CLASS-2(Warrior Class)

PLAYER 2: TEAM-2 CLASS-3(Ninja Class)

PLAYER 3: TEAM-3 CLASS-2(Warrior Class)

I don’t exactly understand why they should be in the same team

Sometimes we need players on the same team, to use vehicle turrets for example (and class don’t work in this case.)

Ahh fair, Yea I guess I suppose they should’ve added the ability to still allow people from enemy teams to commandeer the turrets on vehicles. Given that’s how it used to work.

Yes of course but that doesn’t cover other issues, it would also be necessary to be able to activate or not the aim assist for players on the same team.
