Let pods launch 1 minute after shuttle.

[CPTANT]

Like the title says, let pods always launch 1 minute after the shuttle.

It would make for great rush moments where people miss the shuttle and a horde of people stampedes to the pods trying to safe themselves.

Gives you a last chance of saving yourself if the shuttle launches early/is emagged.

Did you get stranded in station?

[Screemonster]

Make pods not launch automatically but have a button at the front to blast the fuck off. Cue scramble to find one that hasn't launched yet.

[Super Aggro Crag]

Just make more pods so no one gets left behind so everyone gets a free green

Fun fact telebeacons on the shuttle work in transit be a bro today

yes but there is double the amount of pods and they can only hold one person

[Cobby]

There is no such thing as "can only hold one person" when the rest command exists

[Armhulen]

Maybe have the pods act like the abductor analyser? I don't know i'm throwing ideas around

basically the more evac resembles that scene at the end of spaceballs the better

[Armhulen]

i didn't want to bring it up but my idea is 100% based off of spaceballs

[Dagdammit]

could just have emergency launch only affect the shuttle and not the pods.

[Armhulen]

well first off when the shuttle is docked or in flight the button should send the pod to centcom or recovery ship or whatever, that's a good first step. the pod should never launch automatically

which also means traitors can launch them without anyone inside, shenanigans, you know

[Iatots]

You should probably be able to launch them during red alert as soon as the shuttle departs, at the least, though that might conflict with the launch to asteroid.

[Armhulen]

red alert: launched whenever, maybe when the shuttle is called but i like the penalty of the first one (maybe one reason to not go red alert, finally)
blue: launchable when shuttle is docked and beyond
green:no launching, take the shuttle you pansies. this may seem like a bad choice but i mean you have to manually set it to green for this and green literally has no threats

delta:see red

Would be a good change to make and hilarious but too many people would cry about losing their memetext because "m-m-muh pods got launched".
