Please fix the nuke shuttle, holy fuck

[lumipharon]

The nuke shuttle has been deconstructable for a long ass time now.

Probably more than 50% of nuke rounds I spectate, I see the nuke get spaced by some powergaming shit who just welds into the shuttle.

This is fun for precisely no one else in the round, and is literally just bug abuse as shuttle walls were unsimmed without any thought to the actual effects on balance it would have.
Here's a hint - the nuke op shuttle was designed to be able to securely hold the nuke.

I'm sure that this would be like, a 2 second fix as there are undamagable walls elsewhere in the game.

[iamgoofball]

isn't there a rule in the Manifesto aka our rules set on the wiki saying people can't seek out and fuck with the syndicate shuttle unless they followed a nuke op back to it

[lumipharon]

Well that doesn't seem to stop being doing it, even when I point it out to admins, they just shrug, as literally a dozen people fly around the station looking for the ship the moment ops get called.
Also even if it's following an op or "accidentally" find the ship, being able to just weld a wall down and stop the ops from winning is gay as all fuck, and again, this would be a simple bug fix that's just bringing the shuttle back to how it was before an unintended change.

100% agree, nuke spacers are cancer and aids and we shouldn't be enabling them.
If we can't make the shuttle indestructible, then what I suggest is putting a high-caliber syndicate turret on literally every wall of the shuttle.

We had those before. What happened to them?

[lumipharon]

they're shit, avoidable and have huge glaring blind spots.

Seriously, this is a dead is fix. Make the damn walls nondeconstructable again. ANY other solution canand will be exploited.

[TheNightingale]

Just use indestructable walls. Keep the windows, though, so operatives have to remember to close the blast shutters.

[Davidchan]

+1 For indestructible walls, the amount of times I've seen an engi borg just RCD his way in, use the charger and dismantle the ship from the inside is insane.

Whats the point of the turrets if they don't defend the inside? The AI core turrets are at least around the objective.

[Anonmare]

Make the walls indestructible tbh
The amount of "Oh I was just flying around and accidentally bumped into it tee-hee~" is fairly ridiculous

Personally I'd like OPs to carry shuttle locators to A) Help them find their way if a flOP moves the shuttle without telling everyone and B) Gives a legit way for the crew to find the shuttle.
Of course 'd like OPs to have the choice of whether to have an explosive implant or not because the defib with the combat medkit is useless with it

I don't really want to edit 7 maps.

You should do it if you feel strongly about it. It is simple, just time consuming.

[leibniz]

Syndicate shuttle is literally next to the station on meta, it's not like you have to look for it.
Anyway, yeah it should be undestroyable.

[PKPenguin321]

we should make it indestructible AND add turrets to literally every wall
that way if you so much as breathe too close to it you FUCKING DIE INSTANTLY YOU SHITTY POWERGAMER SHIT

[Incomptinence]

I have suggested having a fixed shuttle guard before, could either be a AI derivative or a borg that can't function outside the shuttle. Oh and let it move more freely.

What I am saying it why not turn it into an asset instead of a liability?

[DemonFiren]

>nuke ops round
>congratulations, you are a part of the crew that can never ever leave the shuttle!

That's why borg derivatives are bad.

[Takeguru]

Make it a ghost role.

Simple AI if no observers bite.

[Helios]

You know, there's a simpler way to do this.
1. Have the pinpointer act as a nuke locator, so when people leave the shuttle they can find the shuttle because it has the nuke on it.
2. Let ops either buy the code to the self destruct on the station, or get it automatically when the nuke leaves the z-level.

[lumipharon]

Or just like, fix the shuttle so it works as it used to, and avoid all these pointless convoluted ideas?

There's no problem with the shuttle, or an op RECALLING THE SHUTTLE BACK TO SYNDICATE STATION, THEN GIBBING HIMSELF WITH IT SO IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO GET THE SHUTTLE, THUS DOOMING THE MISSION MORE THEN IF HE DETONATED A BOMB AT ROUND START INSIDE THE BASE, BECAUSE HE'S A FUCKING IDIOT.
