Let aliens cut inflatable walls.

To start, I'm not entirely sure if this is just a bug or a simple oversight, but I'm posting it here regardless.

Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary): Let aliens cut through inflatable walls and doors. They serve as an impenetrable wall for xenos without acid, even though they're flimsy and can be taken down by a human without any tools. Xeno claws should be able to shred them.

Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole): This is a very minor, small thing, as the current map only has inflatables at one specific place next to the caves. Still, they can hamper hivework more than they should, if the aliens choose to expand defences outside the caves. You should be able to get through without using acid.

Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc): 1. Any alien clicks an inflatable wall/door. 2. Said inflatable gets cut to shreds, no longer inhibiting hivework.

Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it): Not a clue. I hope it's easy enough to code.

Uh. Right click > Deflate.

So, neutral. Maybe make it so they auto-deflate on a xeno clicking.

I'm fairly sure this doesn't work for xenos, though I haven't tested it recently.

Deflate works

Well, +1, I haven't really tested it out, but if aliens can't charge a position of balloons without have to stop and right click, them I'm all for letting aliens slash them walls.

(I dunno, this is more of a bug)

Hmm isn't to much trouble, if you do the harm and then click it, you pop a whole in it and you are golden. It deflates pretty quick if you are xeno so -1 from me mate.

I've seen some pretty great plays where xenos got trapped by a sneaky marine with an inflatable.

Current implementation is fine, xenos should generally have at least 2 square entrances

Denied... Use harm intent on the barrier...
