Let traitors buy the stations nuclear codes for 20 tc.
To show people you are truly badass

Not really much shorter then a CE who releases the sing as his first action.....

Try an item which needs to be attached to the nuke and brute-forces it, with a corresponding delta network alert.
Said item can be very easily removed, so you'll need to stick around and guard the nuke without any TC.

you should be able to c4 the nuke core and have it detonate with the force of like, sixteen maxcaps in a 4x4 grid
completely fucks the station but doesn't end the round, autocalls the shuttle though.

one time i tried hippie since it was the new poppin' server and i wanted to know how it was like over there. i rolled traitor atmos tech at one point and killed like 20 people with just the straight up axe, no stun batons or ebows. i was doing pretty good when all of the sudden the station got nuked because the admins thought it would be funny to give a traitor the nuke codes, and as it turns out nobody gives a fuck about the nuke disk or the nuke unless they know there are nuke ops, meaning the station will get nuked every time.
tl;dr: assuming this is a serious idea, it's a really bad idea, since it will just lead to potentially good rounds getting cut short

That's not how nukes work.

Nuclear explosives actually don't detonate from external explosions. They use an internal mechanism that either compresses a pre-critical mass of fissible material or shoots the pre-critical mass with additional material, sparking a chain reaction. Using an external explosive on a nuclear weapon would likely just result in spillage of highly reactive material.

Would you change your behavior about the nuke/nuke disk if you knew traitors could buy the codes?

It'd give the captain yet another thing to be hyper paranoid about.
I like the idea of getting an override system for the station nuke. You need the disc, and say, five minutes to override the safety features and have it go boom. Plenty of time for the crew to try and stop you, but if you are competent you may very well be able to make it happen.

This strikes me as a compelling reason to make this a thing (#DeathToMeta)

How would being able to buy top secret nuclear codes that even nuke ops teams don't even have when you're sent in there to steal a slime core make any sense

>5 minutes
That's a century in-game. Make it two minutes, and still cost 20 TC.

bla bla, insert fluff about a communications mimicker that traitors can use on the communications console.

For added hilarity let flops buy those too.
In case their main nuke gets spaced, you know.

Ok I propose this:
You have to first buy the item
Then use it on the communications console, doing so will result in the usual big fat "X HAS REQUESTED NUCLEAR CODES", but you do get the codes
You also need the nuke disk.
Then you have to break into the vault and arm the nuke.
If you do all that and the crew still doesn't stop you then they deserve to be blown to pieces.

I prefer being forced to slap this thing onto the nuke itself to brute-force the codes.
People can easily build consoles in maint.

So? Everyone still knows who you are and you have to get to the nuke.

One can be avoided by grabbing a firesuit closet.
The other has to be done one way or the other.
