Before I say this, I just want to say that I have no idea if this has been brought up before, I've just recently come to this conclusion after seeing it Time after Time for no apparent reason.
I feel like the rules on Gunplanting are very vague. Let me give an example, a T is killed for shooting a guard with an ak, the ak drops into the hands of another T, who is then killed immediately, which, seeing how that could happen, I feel it could start a chain of KOSes, which would seem like Freekilling or Gunplanting to A good amount of people, wouldn't seem like it to most other players, who would say that they still picked up the primary, voluntarily or involuntarily. If you were to ask how you were supposed to avoid getting killed, the response would be something like "don't pick it up" or "don't walk into it" or even, my favorite, "Unlucky, I guess, LMAO."
I feel a good way to fix this is to implement a time or something like "as soon as, or a second after they can drop it." Maybe something like a (highly modded and edited, but you can definitely figure it out) Clock plugin that appears in the bottom-center, or top right of the screen to tell you how long you've had the weapon. It would stay on the screen for 30 seconds after you die. It would only appear on T and wouldn't bee so big as to obscure your screen. That or it could only appear after you die.
I feel like, yes, this would also mean that tweaking the Secondary rules a bit, but I feel like the same rules would apply, as well as the current ones being mixed in, something like you can hold it out for 1.5x the amount that applies for Primaries, or "as soon as, or 1.5 seconds after they can drop it." As well as the "Not KOS if you can pocket it quick enough" thing. The Clock would also apply to this to help with times.
Now, I feel like all of this Overall would make people, especially the ones who I wont name, who like to find loopholes in the rules, (which lets face it, are a little outdated by now, considering how many loopholes you can find), would be upset with the new changes, but I feel like it would be worth it to make things a little more clear to new and old players, and overall fix the rules on Gunplanting and how to spot it.
Im open to critiques, so feel free
Thanks,
