Achievements That Would Have Been Amazing

[fluffels]

We'll never get this, since the devs will probably spend their time implementing actual features, but wouldn't it have been awesome to get achievements for stupid deaths?

• "Glorious sacrifice." - Destroy a ship with your crew on it.
• "You forgot WHAT?" - Have a crew member die of asphyxiation with a repaired, but un-powered O2 unit.
• "Vacuum? Stop being a pansy." - Send a crew member to his / her death by asphyxiation.
• "Friendly fire." - Kill a crew member by launching a bomb / missile at the room he / she is in.
• "Do you smell something?" - Have a fire deal the last point of damage to your ship outside of combat.
• "Own worst enemy." - Manage to kill yourself without any enemies being present.

Let's see your ideas.

Er, this one's already implemented I thought? It's called Trustworthy Auto-pilot or something.

No, that is defeat a ship with all your crew on it.

So the important part of the achievement, that's already in the game, is that there are none of your crew left on your original ship and that you win the battle (which can be done by killing all the enemy crew). The implication being that you won while only the autopilot was in charge. No crew loss is required.

Whereas the suggested achievement is that some of your crew are on the enemy ship and you destroy it. So that you kill your own crew by destroying the enemy ship. Hence, a glorious sacrifice.

Ah, okay, I was confused. I only got it because my men were dying anyways and my teleporter was still charging, so I just fired on it, killing everybody on board, my own crew included. I thought it was being sarcastic, since I lost immediately afterwards.

"What's a roguelike?!" - Whine on the forums that the game's too hard.

Be advised, you can as well earn the achievement by causing the enemy ship to WARP OFF with all your crew on it. That's how I got the achievement...
Took me a few days to figure out 'Trustworthy AutoPilot' isn't awarded for leaving your ship unmanned without deaths...
