Trigger the nuke

Your side has the upper hand? Great! Now trigger the nuke:

Load the nuke into one of your pods and drop it off near the station.
Move the nuke to the designated area. If you've forgotten, use the notes command to remind yourself.
Click on the nuke with an empty hand to activate it. That will prompt a station-wide red alert, stating your exact location. Needless to say, stealth is no longer an option at this point.
Insert the authentication disk if you have it.
Defend the nuke for 10 (or 7 with the disk) long minutes. It's all or nothing!
Gloat over the radio and vanish in a cloud of radioactive fire!

Powering the station: the geothermal capture system

All about Hotspots

These quakes cause particular effects within a certain radius of the center

Hunting for & Centering Hotspots: The Hard Part

For example, if you plop a rod northwest of the your previous spot and get an estimate of 8 when your previous one was 9, you should continue northwest. Conversely, if it's 10, you should head the opposite direction, southeast, and if it's 9 again, you should try another direction entirely.

Overlapping Hotspots

With a bit of intuition and some simple math, you can still decipher where the centers are. If you manage to find a corner of one hotspot where there isn't overlap (that is, readings of 10 and nothing above that), you could intuit the center based on which corner it is (i.e. if you've found the northwest corner of a hotspot, then the center is 10 tiles to the southeast.) From there, since you know where one hotspot is and thus how far you are its center at any point, you can use to decipher the dowsing rod readings. For example, if you get an estimate of 5 and know that there's a hotspot 3 tiles directly north of you, then that means there's another hotspot 2 tiles away in some direction.

Alternatively, you can ignore the distance estimates entirely and rely upon indicator light alone. Theoretically, you could use a single dowsing rod and find the center by the light alone. However, it's usually easier to make a grid of dowsing rods over an area, and
