If shuttles engines are destroyed or aten it shouldnt launch

[Bombadil]

I dunno what kind of fucking magic it works on where it can launch with no engines.



If engines are destoyed mid flight? Then the shuttle comes out of warp and slams into centcomm creating a massive explosion

The collective will of the gathered angry spessmen propels it through space.

Also some admins like moving the docking point so it "crashes" into centcomm sometimes.

This isn't such a bad idea actually. "Prevent the shuttle from launching" could be a traitor objective

[Scones]

Happens too often

[LNGLY]

It used to be this way - a traitor could damage the engines and the shuttle wouldn't launch until someone spacewalked and fixed it with some tools. So the code for this already exists.

I would rather have shuttles that are actually piloted first so you can make custom crashes into the station as the syndicates.
"Just dont aim for their engineering Mr Scotty" Famous last words of the nuie op commander.

[lumipharon]

You can already pray to the badmins to move a docking point into the station, then ram your synie shuttle right up their asses for a DYNAMIC ENTRY!!

Sadly not very practical since the syndie shuttle is now decontructable, but eh.

[Amnestik]

so the round just never ends?

[Actionb]

The only way to destroy the engines is via bomb or singulo.
And then the shuttle is fucked anyway. I'd rather be amongst the few lucky survivors of a shuttle bombing/BoH singulo riding to centcomm, holding on for dear life for two minutes than trying to reach an escape pod in time.
