1: The gimmick was popularized by one player, I see no issue with making it standard as most podbays have room or a room next to it where the podbay commander can sit. As long as it just has tools to fix pods and a clipboard with said maintance. NO OBJECTIONS
2: Tractor beams should indeed be increased on players but only those with no magnetisation and only effective in the vacuum on space. It's weak since we don't want pods to tractor players off... but since it's sec only. It's fine.
3: I like the concept of this large pod with a system in it that basicly is a port-a-medbay/sleeper. Some stations do have medbay podbays that arent used ever...for bringing in patients... so this is a nice side gimmick for that.
4: I have nothing against personalized pod colors. Can have some fun pays off.
5: NO. For one reason alone... there are pods off station as well and they can give away secret locations. If you wanna track pods, bring a space gps or scan for them.
There are enough ways to track lost pods. Also it would make antags doing a clean getaway harder, or knowing wich pod is taken and suspect is this pod.. start tracking and they will be all over their butts. It litterly means no antag can retreat to their hideout cause the pod is a giant blip.
So.. no. We got enough tools dealing with lost pods.
6: Some PDA's have space GPS, but I have no objection to this to someone who wants to go on an adventure.
7: No objections. This shows when a player went back to the station, a good visual indicator your target is back at the location.
Overall a good suggestion, A-pods seem fun but are questionable, Tractor beam buff makes ense, but the tracking device on pods is a 100% NO!
