Fixing the explosive entry device
#1
As you know,the nukies have a special pod part available on their Battlecruiser that can be installed in their pods,the part in particular im talking about is the explosive entry device. On paper,this device would turn the pod into a flying bomb which would explode on contact with enough speed,sounds great doesnt it? Yet you know it's barely used at all nowadays for a particular reason, you cannot leave the pod while trying to crash it. If you leave the pod,it will lose all of its momentum way too quickly and thus no boom. If you stay in the pod,you will risk your own life and will most likely be critically injured which is very bad for the nukies as losing even one member can heavily impact the round.


Solution:
Instead of being active right when its installed,the device would be activated with the press of a button,this can prevent accidental explosions.
Once you activate the device,the Pod locks its current speed (or have it speed up) and you can no longer control it,it will fly towards it's direction on where the front of the pod is and it will never stop,even when nobody is actually inside the pod. The pod will stop once it hits an obstacle and it will blow up as expected.
With this you can safely exit the pod without worrying that it will stop and you have less of a chance to harm yourself doing it.

With this solution,I would expect an increase of using this pod part quite significantly and it would allow a new approach for nukies who want to go loud.

I'm surprised Cogs never fixed the SEEDs yet. He loves those things. Must be busy with other stuff.
They use to and are SUPPOSE TO act like this; You add the SEED to the pod and then when you want to activate it you press the button and the pod RAMS forward breaking walls and glass and anything in its way for a couple tiles and then it explodes and ejects you SAFELY away. Seems like something broke with them if they dont act that way.
