Personally think all borgs should default to station law rack period, would be the most sane and intuitive solution. Also good job with the ui I like it a lot.

Also re: different racks, I think the default rack being able to detect other racks and tell you which silicons are part of that rack would be good. Itd allow people to go oh okay the AI isnt/there isnt one self antagging its just these silicons that arent following the same laws.

Yes, that is already the case. I've added the tool anyway because there are situations where you will want to change a borg's association (as traitor for example), but by default the first rack built get Asimov laws and becomes the default rack. If the default rack is destroyed, the next rack built becomes the default, and any unconnected non-emagged borgs are reconnected to it.

This does present a new traitor strategy - get set up to build a new law rack and put your evil laws in it, destroy the default rack and then build yours! Suddenly, all the borgs on the station are following your laws.

As for silicons recognising each other as following different laws, I agree. I was thinking of having something like an in-built sec-hud, that gives borgs following different laws to you an icon. Also, to incentivise capture over kill, opening up a borg and prodding it with the linker tool will reveal where it's connected rack is.
