Lines/arrows on the Almayer floor that glow when evac is called and point towards the evac pods and self-destruct
Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary): title. Most places have indicators for where the emergency exits and important places are, and airplaces have glow in the dark lines on the floor pointing towards the exits. The Almayer should have something similar since not every marine knows where the self destruct and pods are, especially the more obscure pods.
Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole): immersion, helps newbies
Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc): They'd probably be like pipes that glow from under the floor or something, not invincible to being grenaded.
Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it): Code, sprite, new tile or new pipe subclass

Also gives more reason for xenos to follow the "shiny lights".

Please, do. Maybe pepole will actually use lower deck pods now.

This'll help for immersion and make it easier for newer players to understand where to run away to.

Troublesome, as usual.

Forgot to add the fact that its grey tide season and new players will be a plenty, so QoL suggestions like these are great.

Evac is for cowards. +1 so the cowards can know where to flee to.

Yes, please. I STILL often forget and confuse when I'm trying to get to evac pods.

+1 for the concept but I don't know if glowing pipes will be seen well enough with the ambient lighting of the corridors of the Alamayer (before lights are broken).

+1 new players especially get way too lost on the almayer despite the fact theyve supposedly lived and worked aboard the ship for some time in-character and this is a good solution

Denied. Not feasible with our current lighting system.
