Re: Better Traitor objectives

I'd like to expand on the new 'steal nuke core' objective, by adding other unique objects that crew members wouldn't want to steal/ mess with. These could be large objects that don't fit in a backbag, so hauling them to an escape pod unnoticed would be one thing you needed to plan for. 'Steal a SMES...

Assuming we are using the default scaling coefficient 6, it's basically one traitor for every five crew members and at higher populations it scales down a little bit, to one traitor for every eight crew members and beyond that for even higher pop rounds. http://i.imgur.com/9ftUqXf.png In traitorling...

Vending machine stuff should keep hunger away slightly longer, and increase the rate you get hungry less. Right now eating stuff from vending machines is hardly a viable option for keeping hunger away.
