Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary):
Facehuggers will be unable to attach to SSD people. Once someone is attached, no conditions matter, it's trying to impregnate you.
Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole):
Will help when marines or people go SSD so that the aliens don't have an overwhelming advantage. Also prevents some metagame which I usually see on the aliens part when the queen ordered aliens to attack so that they would hugcap plenty of marines but strangely, leave the ones that are SSD alone. No idea what aliens know about SSD or show know about it. It's not like you can join as an SSD marine while for aliens you can join in as an SSD alien.
Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc):
First and foremost the primary concern before it is questioned, they will only not attach to you if you're SSD. NOTHING ELSE WILL CHANGE. Once you're attached with a facehugger, that's it, logging out or doing anything to go SSD doesn't stop the process of having a new alien baby.
Second, yes you can go SSD then wake back up but by then who knows what the aliens did to humiliate you, like drag you around and nested you.
This will fail on those marines who thinks, oh it's a good idea to log out to not get facehugged since aliens can just do whatever they want with the bodies at that point.
SSD people don't contribute for marines in the round anyways so why let them contribute to the alien side when they aren't worth shit for the marines?
Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it):
Checks in place where the facehugger would attempt to attach only if they are not SSD and alive.

Re: Facehugger refuses to attach to SSD
-1, I would say this would be meta gaming since xenos wouldn't know of such a thing as SSD. I admit it sucks when you get grabbed when you are SSD but if they can't attach a hugger on you, they would just straight up kill you

Re: Facehugger refuses to attach to SSD
That's fine, SSD's don't really contribute to the round so whether they kill you or not, it doesn't matter in the end since you're SSD. However, if you're attached with a facehugger, then you can add to the army while marines can't do anything with you.TheSpoonyCroy wrote:-1, I would say this would be meta gaming since xenos wouldn't know of such a thing as SSD.

Re: Facehugger refuses to attach to SSD
Disconnect while fighting aliens, and they won't be able to impregnate you. Denied.
