Destroy the Mothership is a mod created by Absolute Kun and 45rfew. There are two teams; Solarium and Lunatic, each with 7 different ships to choose from. Each team also features a mothership, with extremely powerful shields, high firepower, and special abilities, but moves slowly and has low agility. As the title suggests, the goal of the mode is to kill the enemy team's mothership. Whichever team loses their mothership first loses. Each player's ship will have the same amount of gems. Upon losing gems, they will simply disappear without dropping into crystals.
Each team has a base from which they respawn, and are immune to damage inside. If a player enters an enemy base, they instantly die. Torpedoes and Heavy Mines also spawn in the base. Motherships do not gain invincibility inside their own base, and do not die inside enemy ones.
Mothership
The mothership is the key factor in this mod and should be defended at all costs. It can hold a whopping 500,000 shields and has massive firepower from the front and sides, albeit without engine protection. It also has 5 special abilities that can be activated after a certain amount of time.
Hyperspeed Gives the mothership a massive speed boost for one second. Can be used for escaping tough situations or getting somewhere... quickly. "Gives the player a stupid amount of speed, for one second. Great for escaping tough situations or ramming players." - in-game description
Missile Swarm Gives the mothership a maximum of 16 missiles to fire within a 4-second timeframe. "Allows player to spam out 4 missiles per second, for 4 seconds." - in-game description
Absolute Kontrol Grants a large agility and small speed boost for 4 seconds. "Player's agility is increased by an absurd amount, and grants a small speed boost. Lasts for 4 seconds." - in-game description
Burst Heal Heals all friendly players within a certain radius by 10,000 shields. "Drops a healing pod that heals all players in the same team within a certain distance for 10k shield." - in-game description
Overdrive Increases the mothership's damage at the cost of shields. Lasts for 5 seconds. "Increases player's damage output by an insane amount. However the player will take damage. 5 second duration." in-game description
All abilities have a 2-minute cooldown after use.
