Martian Mode

[Sundance]

I think it would be cool if blowing up a Martian Shuttle counted for something at the end of the round.

Mostly because of the movie Independence Day.

[probably stupid idea]

Make it so that a dedicated crewmen can hack the martian shuttle to explode, but they can also just use conventional beaker bombs or pipebombs.

Blowing up the martian mothership counts towards a station victory, this is an intended. Maybe have a cutscene of it exploding similar to the nuke ops?
Boarding the shuttle and chucking in a TTV while would be difficult, should definetely be an option for those brave/insane enough.

Now that I realize it, there's also nothing stopping the aliens from just bombing the mainframe and taking out dwaine.

The martians have multiple targets that they can choose, such as QM, podbay, AI, Toxins; all for seperate obvious reasons so they can continue their raid. Adding the mainframe on that list would be great, this after all is a slow burn nuke op style gamemode.

My question is: How would "hacking" work? The Mothership isn't connected to the mainframe.
