[Random Event] Escape Shuttles from Other Stations

[GORE]

Shuttle stacked with bodies and a NPC ling

Why do a NPC ling when you could instead have a ghost respawn as a ling?

Good idea then, good idea now.

Maybe no corpses to make it not really obvious.  Have there be 5 players chosen from ghosts, maybe random customs for the RP server (for obvious reasons), have one of them be a Ling.

I think it would be neat.

Only thing is, and this applies for basically anything involving survivors mixed with an antag, what's the crew's motivation to keep any of them alive?

Are you really implying...that even if there is just a chance of 1 outta 5 people being an antag - that the crew would murderbone all of them?

Killing someone without sufficient reason is RDM and already being punished.

The shuttle event could work with 5 people - joining late or respawning.
One of them might be or might not be an antag (be it vampire, changeling or worse...a space Gremlin).

I highly doubt that the natural instinct of every crewmember would be...yeah sure...lets just kill all of them to be sure there is nothing evil. Sure lets KoS everyone who arrived on the station merely seconds ago.
People who try to pick off any antag merely seconds after being thrown onto the station (with the exception of Nukies) is purposely validhunting to make the round less fun for any other crewmember and them antags themselves.

To answer your question:"what's the crew's motivation to keep any of them alive?"

Answer:
1. Probably to not be an unfun-prick.
2. To keep suspense high.
3. Uncertainty who or who might not be an antag - if there even is any antag arriving on the off-station shuttle.
