QOL for TB: Let officers lock out specific platoons
See title
I coordinate TB for my guild, <100m GP, still on the Hoth rotation.
The last 3 TB's we've been getting unstuck because folks are deploying toons to platoons we can't complete. I put notes up on the missions specifying which platoons to focus, I put together phase notes calling it out in chat, just about everything I can short of naming and shaming to get focus on the right areas.
In spite of all that, I can't force people to read the notes, so the next best control is actually being able to visibly mark the platoons we should be ignoring, if not block them off entirely.
Inb4 "people should be able to play how they like"; I spend 10's of hours over the course of a TB planning, doing the math to work out star targets to maximise rewards for everyone, doing platoon assignments, typing up the strategy for which sectors and missions to hit and why.... I don't think it's too much to ask that guild officers in positions like mine have the ability to actually guide the outcome, rather than sending messages to the void and hoping people pay attention.
End rant
