yet another sec rework thread

[Frank_Stein]

I was actually thinking about something when it comes to #2.

All officers have their normal access (with the exception of science), but the officers are assigned a department with full access to it with maaaaaybe the exception of the heads room?

So like an officer with access in all of medical, one in science, engineering, VIP areas (bridge, AI upload, etc.), and civilian areas (Botany, Kitchen, bar, chapel).  This means people who CAN do something are able to keep an eye out for those things, and if things go bad fast Security has someone they can trust telling them they need back-up rather than someone who may potentially be trying to piss them off.  Along with that, it also means someone with easy access could let back-up in to assist them.

I like this. I think a good way to go about this would be to have some kind of ID machine in Sec. Stick your Sec ID into it, have it punch a second color band on it to show your new access. Probably limit it to one guard for each department, but you can reassign yourself to unoccupied areas

Maybe have little armbands or helmet stripes you can wear that are also color coded.

Would even make guard impersonation a bit harder when you're outside your area
