why only officials?
If this will be implemented for all groups/bases. I would like to downvote having it in LV as players can abuse it to escape from the turf and enter any base with a protected area even if they don't have access to the base.
So I say, its really not Abusable, also since devs applied a 1-bus rule on base placement on LV. Wherein it requires each base to have at least a bus-length distance from then nearest turf.
