Spawn Timer to prevent spawning dead and subsequent crash

Also, mercs should only attack after this timer goes away, to prevent the spawn crash, let the player have a chance to react, etc.

Yes this is excellent. This way preview can be removed entirely and people who want to do "preview scouting" actually have to enter the city to see whats in there. This way players inside the city can notice that they're being scouted. In addition grid merccamping will disappear.
The timer could be something like 5 seconds so that gridscouts wouldn't be shot when they start moving.

I think there's still the risk of someone hiding to the extreme left/right and sniping whoever enters once they think it's clear, but this is a massive improvement, totally in favour.

I am in favor of a timer after spawning.
That way I have time to run up on people and set off my bomb, and they can't shoot me as I approach them.
