Nerf the ID wire

[DasBrain]

I agree with a buff being needed. An idea i had would be a printable alarm device that engineers can install in doors, that will ping PDA's/AI/Radio when its tampered with.

It would give engineering a good way to interact with more departments who might want one. Maybe even have a select few doors be preinstalled with one, like armory or captains bedroom.

It could perhaps go on a door as a whole, or on induvidual wires.

Already possible using mechcomp.

I guess why cutting the ID wire is so powerful is that it looks like nothing is wrong while at the same time allowing anyone to open it. Permanently.
So it won't be noticed by legitimate users (they can still open the door as before), and only users without access might notice it if they try the door.

Cutting the power wire and crowbar the door open is not that much slower, but you have to do it everytime you want access to the are. Same with packets.
