With multiple ways to fuck with the shuttle I think the real issue is dominator defence is so silly deadly all the gang heads end up dead unless they basically control the station.
I don't think this is a bad thing but then I don't think gang is in all that bad a state just needing a few more gang gimmicks again like carp.
Not even sure how much of an issue the round type is having since its stats don't even track properly.
Infinite dominators, but only one at a time, and a cooldown between each (so if one gets destroyed, you can't immediately drop another). Make the shuttle unable to be called when the dominator is active, but if it's already been called, let it leave (encouraging gang bosses to activate dominators earlier for maximum effect).
Removing the recall from gang tools and have dominators recall the shuttle.
Promotes earlier dom placement.
Also some bonus influence from placing a dom should make things a lot more interesting.

The rules exist to create the biggest possible chance of a cool shift of SS13. They don't exist to allow admins to create the most boring interpretation of SS13.
Also make doms generate their own points, have no upper limit to dom placement (only 1 at a time), and let gangsters use these points generated by them to buy stuff. Would incentivise gangs to base up rather than be everywhere and also make Gangs better equipped since everyone will be able to purchase things rather than the gangsters relying on the boss to give them things.

This is a good idea. Gang heads/lietenants recalling over and over without placing a dom is terrible. It also would stop shitty gangs from extending the round pointlessly. If a gang can't place and protect a dom they're going to run out of points trying. But a crappy gang with a few members that hide can recall the shuttle damn near indefinitely but never get any closer to winning.
