So…. I was going about my merry business as team RED, tried capping a GREEN team camp, got it to 99%, got forced off the cap for a split second by a BLUE team player, BLUE team caps based off RED teams progress.

Is that supposed to happen?

Yes, you can get your cap stolen by a third team. The cap progress reverses while the defender is exclusively holding the ring, and it advances while one of the attacking servers exclusively holds it. If there’s more than one server in the ring, it doesn’t move.

cap progress is just whoever is standing on it last with no other sides contesting it

Well that bombs… Guess that means that I’ll have to watch for a sneaky pull or some nonsense like that when solo capping :v
