Pods, ride shotgun

[Crumplehat]

There's still a lot of stuff about pods that behaves weirdly. They still act as if they're one square that just happens to have other squares attached. When you cloak, only the one square gets that little shield around it even though your whole pod's invisible. The guns tend to fire at different speeds, too, it seems, which is probably related to that; it was very bad a little ways back but I think it got evened out again. That said, I think issues like that would prevent giving pods that kind of multi-user functionality. As it is, a passenger on a pod already has the ability to fire the guns, and this more often than not tends to end very badly (although I agree it would be awesome if it could be worked out to have passengers aim guns for more epic drone battles).

Making an additional dialogue box for getting into pods seems like it'd make it more awkward, though, unless you made it so you could just click-drag yourself into a pod instead of having to go through that frustrating right click menu where the buttons never fucking work on the first try.

But still, it does sound cool. I'd like passengers to be able to do USEFUL things instead of just worrying that they're going to steal the pod the moment I step out of it.
