Also considering the unpredictable nature of Blockland vehicle physics, this problem is amplified.Yeah, I get what you mean with the unpredictability of vehicles and such, but I think this idea needs to be explored a little more. The whole point of doing this is to make every weapon a lot more accessible while keeping weapon usage high. As said before pistols will be savable, but will have a higher price, making it so it doesn't feel like you're losing any progress when you die. Melee weapons might be added into that too.
I would propose giving participation points. After the round starts (so after you've killed off the AFKs), everyone alive gets 1 points every minute or so. This rewards good drivers who aren't necessarily good fighters.
Yeah, this idea works for sure, although it kinda makes spawn camping viable for getting points. I think something that might be fun is giving points depending on what position you are in, making players want to race a whole lot more. The only problem is we would need to do checkpoints or something to make sure we have the right person in first place and so on.
