Similar to the current teleporter/beacon system (only not cross compatible) but as a Martian, one could travel back and forth via the beacon. Human crew members can attack/destroy the beacons.
A depressurised ship is currently the Martian's worst nightmare. At only 70 health, they take damage so quickly from being in a vented room that they die within three to five seconds. I'm not exaggerating either. So, a gun that pokes holes in the ship is a big mistake for them.
(Currently)
I like the idea of a beacon, it negates the "suddenly martians!" thing I mentioned. The beacon should be pretty obvious, so you'd want to hide it into a maint to get a drop. It should be used for 1-2-1 travel, meaning you can't take humans back with you, so it's only good for entry, and retreat.
Martians in this mode are invulnerable to cold and oxy damage. Bear in mind the current iterations of the martian code cirrial is toying with isn't the same as this concept (yet)
