Since when do they only have one? It has to be a bug that they don't have two.

That's what I thought, and what I still suspect it is since i have no memory of it changing. I haven't actually tried to find a PR yet, but still, it's dumb.

So apparently gangs only get 1 dominator if the shuttle is docked, but they normally get two.
I propose this be removed and they just get two all the time.

Gang mode just needs an update. Messing with dominator numbers won't solve the root of the problem, just hide it.

It was mostly done to cover cases where a losing gang would troll the server by dragging it endlessly on forcing the crew to whack-a-mole with dominators. First time it happened like this:

>Gangs got their asses kicked, shuttle was called and was allowed to dock
>1 minute before the shuttle launches, Gang puts down a dominator surrounded by walls
>5 minutes of finding the dom and fighting with the 1 or 2 gangsters in there, boss runs away at first sign of trouble
>3 minutes of waiting for the shuttle to leave again
>Another fucking last-minute dominator is put down, another 5 minutes of whackamole
>3 minutes of waiting for the shuttle to leave again
>A third fucking dominator is put down, another 5 minutes of whackamole
>3 minutes of waiting for the shuttle to leave again
>Almost half an hour of pain

It was needed back when they had a dom limit of 3. Now that just have 2 it probably wouldn't be as bad.
