Heck no. it should be up to the mod devs to allow it if the tas devs decide to add it, and i'll personally make a non allowed mutator of every mod thats crazy enough to have it. Adding this takes away an important element of the game. it also takes away part of the uniqueness of a builder. A better idea in my opinion would be to add a vehicle that has reclaim, but can actually take damage and return fire unlike a builder.
if your going to let units attack corpses why dont you just make them walkable.Besides, allowing the ability to attack team mates would attract a new brand of game ruiners.

while I'm not sure Krogothe's...eloquent...response was helpful, he has a point

But sure, why not allow modders the 'choice'...

Mod developers could make Dragonsteeth targetable if they wanted to, and trees can be pushed over or lit on fire(which actually does damage to metal robots )

Modders, AI coders, end-users, all agree that this is vital... I'm guessing you're just very new to the game Penguin. There's a reason all corpse files have damage values, it's because in OTA it was often necessary to clear wreckage while in the middle of a battlefield or else face being stuck in the middle of nowhere.

I only oppose making it forced on the moder.(And i've been playing for a few months)

It seems to me like there is no need for an extra checkbox. Remember, this isn't auto targeting. This is just the ability to force fire.

I'd like to see a mod were you wouldn't wont corpses to be shootable.

You should be able to have your units to fire anywhere you want, period. This is TA-style freedom!

Actually I'd like units to be smart enough to fire by themselves at any wreckage that's blocking them.

I think you missed the sarcasm there - I was pointing out that it was a stupid choice - noone's gonna use the first in any mod...
