<div class="IPBDescription">A new ability for the gorge to allow locking of doors</div>I believe if a marine is able to run through a doorway and lock/shut it, and since aliens lack opposable thumbs, I think they should have a new ability as well.
SUPER-GOO!

The idea is, the gorge can spit globs of goo onto a door along the sides, and this goo hardens over time effectively 'welding' the door. Each glob of spit costs a certain amount of resource points as result.

    Couldn't we just use Webs for that?
    Marines would have to weld it open (simply heating up the Bulkhead to burn the Threads) before it can be used again

    Two words: Dynamic Infestation...

    Two more words: Map Makers...

    webs are for slowing down progress through an area, I don't quite make the jump to using them to shut a door.

    also I don't see how dynamic infestation could be used, from what I understand, if dynamic infestation locked doors, there would be huge game balancing issues.

    You could web a Door and then Healspray it to lock it up, since Spiderwebs are made of Protein and you can make Stuff thats stronger than Cement of Protein with the right Ingredients.

    And then you fight back the infestation and the doors become unlocked.. Or you weld them open... Since that is apart of the new game.
