Implement CM13 PvE’s Cryo Wakeup Animation for Squads

As the title says. We should stea- I mean borrow PvE’s cryo wake up screen. If you don’t know, basically as the round starts, you see a listing of your squad on a console screen similar to how it plays out on the movie.

We may have too much pop for everyone to fit on screen but having it for your squad or command crew would be pretty cool.

PROS:
Sovl
Looks cool
Better than looking at crew manifest roundstart

CONS:
Nothing at all. Merge immediately.

Merge immediately. PVE honestly has a lot of really really good stuff we’d do well to port here. Just look at them delicious hangar bay doors…

It would take ages for it all to load, especially considering the size of squads on highpop. I think some PvE things stay on PvE, even if I agree with this.

I have an interest in this long-term. If someone would like to work on it with me (and likely the lore team as well), they are more than welcome to.

Great idea. Problem is what to do at high pop. In the alternative, we could have end credits like the dead space server.

I feel immersed already!

Maybe find a way to speed up the text if the squad is too big?

The # of players that can be shown is capped at 7, because I feel any longer and marines would complain about it being a >30s unskippable cutscene (its approx. 26s rn).

I love it. I was hella confused the first round I woke up and it played. Had to double check which server I joined, but I still love it.

so long as Req/Command can skip it. Imagine Req having more than 5 seconds to orient themselves

Its quite hellish to anyone joining late game on an important role.

I like it anyway.

got busy with real life, the code comments don’t seem that difficult to fix up if anyone wants to re-PR it.
