Cybermen activate sabotage sequence

The Rocket Control Room Switches and Lights play a crucial role in conveying the urgency and escalation of the Cybermen's sabotage. As the countdown sequence is initiated and the Cybermats are activated, the switches flicker and the lights blink in response to the energy surge and system overload. This visual and auditory feedback creates a tense, chaotic atmosphere in the control room, reinforcing the irreversible progression of the invasion plan. The switches and lights serve as a tangible representation of the Cybermen's control over the Wheel's systems, symbolizing the station's impending doom.

Before: Stable, with switches in neutral positions and lights at normal levels.

After: Flickering and blinking, reflecting the energy surge and system overload caused by the Cybermats' sabotage.
