Add Firefighters as late-join jobs - airconswitch - 10-19-2020

I think the title is fairly self-explanatory. Add firefighters as a late-join job with some basic all-around access, since fire is an ever-present danger on NT facilities, and it's not like the engineering staff ever does anything about them either.

Spawning equipment would include:
  • Firesuit and firefighter helm (obviously)
  • A fire extinguisher
  • Box of fire grenades
  • Guaranteed oxygen bottle in box
  • Burn first aid kit
  • Crowbar
Granted, the amount of gear might be a bit generous for most late-join jobs, but consider that regional directors get an AA ID.

no imo, this is the job of all crewmembers, and specifically engineers

Engineers do too little as it is. Don't give them more of an excuse to sit around and catch fire in the engine.

Fire Fighters but they get wrestling belts and can tackle fires out

What if instead of an actual job there was just a spot with all this equitment in one place instead of scattered around engineering storage? Make it more a sub-class of engineer than a new slot entirely.

So people generally only play Cog1 so I can't say 100% for sure on other maps, but I know there is a room where all the Fire fighting equipment is stored.

If the other maps don't do this they should, yes.
