well obviously, this is our opportunity to add a secondary objective to nuke mode rounds.
since human life is worthless to nanotrasen, it should be a secondary objective of the station heads to have one of them or a crewman carry an object of value into this safe zone(mainframe tapes? research data log tapes?). it being a ladder doesnt seem appropriate, though, perhaps a single escape pod that actually works and escapes to centcom off the map edge, unlocked and launched only with the auth disk.
syndicate secondary objective will of course be to prevent that pod and its cargo from getting away.
secondary crew victory - research log tape reel escapes aboard the single working escape pod - whether someone is alive aboard it too is immaterial to nanotrasen, but it will obviously be a highly coveted job to escort the package
secondary neutral result - research log tape reel lost in some other z-level but not destroyed
secondary syndicate medium win - research log tape reel definitively destroyed. if the reel was on the station z-level at nuke detonation it counts as destroyed, but it will also be possible to destroy it manually and win this secondary objective, and proceed to flub the nuke detonation.
secondary syndicate perfect win - research log tape reel seized and returned to syndicate shuttle
i hope this will add a fun wrinkle to nuke rounds, but the primary objective will naturally remain the nuke itself.
the research log tape reel could also be a good macguffin to rotate in as an objective for regular traitor rounds, along with theft of the auth disk and the sabotage of the single working escape pod, so that people fucking with these objects does not immediately trigger syndie panic
