Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary):
Make it so alien nest have a sort of 1 block perimeter around them where no resign walls/doors can be placed, but still allow for more nest to be placed.
Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole):
Allow marines to have a better chance in escaping, and possibly a better understanding of where they're at. Less claustrophobic nest (which could be a plus or minus, I see it as a massive plus for aliens cause they have a hard time getting by each other as is without bad nest design).
Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc):
Essentially make it so doors/resign can't be placed right next to nest but other nest can be placed next to other nest. In exchange the nest can make the marines slower (heavy armor/walking speeds) when they initially get out (say 30-60 seconds after they get out) and possibly the nest could be harder to get out of as well. This would balance out the new nest even further.
Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it):
Flick the "implement" switch (joke).
NOTE: This idea is mostly made with alpha in mind because the map is fucking huge (it's awesome 'cause of that) so I'm kind of afraid of marines being trapped in little cell blocks of nest in the caverns and such. The buildings in the alpha are also a lot harder to move through in general so I think this would promote better nest design in general.

Re: Alien Nest Perimeter
Marines being "trapped" in cells, is kind of the point, of the aliens building the walls and such like that...

-1. This is kinda the entire idea of nests, small claustrophobic areas where marines can't enter without thirty aliens coming out of the walls to get them.
