Backpack Searching

[Kotlol]

No handheld scanners for that please. Would cause valid hunting on alot of antags. I am fine with fingerprint scanners as there is a way to block it or obsecure it.
But with backpack scanners you can see security constantly scanning everyone and putting up checkpoints to scan bag contents to avoid a bombing. (While hilarious to make a customs, if it becomes normal alot of antags will be unable to sneak gear in)

I am not against a device to "search" the arrestee.
We got security gates telling us if someone may be carrying contraband so why not a full on body scanner that scans all contents of a player insted and shows it on a screen?
After all most searches happen after being arrested and brought to the brig/security. So having a device there just speeds up the progress from "contraband check" to being brigged. Better for everyone.

Just no handhelds please... it will start some extreme valid hunting where Revs, Traitors, Spy/thieves, Nukies, undercover wizards cannot CARRY their stuff around out of sight since a security officer is harrasing them for a "Randomly selected scan"
But if it stationary in security? Now it's A-okay!

Thats where the security hud/pda comes in.

That's still remote and something all security can do. Also to examine a backpack you have to pull it off someone and then press examine, by then you already took the longest step of searching a back pack...
Keeping it as an easy to "step in device" "press button" and "see results" is better for everyone then examining as that requires taking off the backpack...
And if you remove the step of taking off.. that means it will start valid hunting.

If we want a "scan backpack feature" keep it inside the security ring, do not give security any reason to "randomly scan backpacks"
