Give personal res to team

Kalabalana

I'd like to see an option at maybe a 4:1 trade, to allow personal res be traded in for team res.
Feel free to discuss, if you hate the idea please state why, or risk looking quite silly. ;P

Seems like a reasonable idea to me. In starcraft 2, resource trading is disabled for the first few minutes to prevent any sort of goofy early timing exploits, and I feel like something similar would have to be applied to ns2.

I don't see why not. I'm a primarily alien player, and I can't particularly see a point in time where it would ever be realistic to ask for res from your team, aside from maybe hoping for a late surprise hive as your last hive is going down... or late in a really long game. Your team needs to be saving up res to evolve to the mid-late game classes and buy/rebuy weapons. But if it was easy to implement I really can't see a reason to not have this in-game. The more options the better!
