I recommend splitting the Spontaneous Intelligence Creation Core into two variants. The first is the (long) variant, which will behave the same. Put it in a borg, people can latejoin into it. The other variant is the (short) variant, which allows dead players to become borgs. Add whatever rules and shit you want so it's not abused, I dunno.

We already have ghostdrones for dead player respawns though.

I mean like actual borgs. That can do stuff, not just place cardboard tiles everywhere. I'm sure rules can be added in place, but it just sucks getting round removed by a fermid or something, because lowpop prevented you from getting a clonescan.

In RP, wait 10 mins, pick a borg body when respawn.

Personally, I think ghost drones could use a touching up.
They were one of the first things that were added as an experiment with letting dead players return to the game, and had a lot of social interaction restrictions put on them that later things like ghost critters do not have.
