Imo, stealing money should be easier. I do not like how hard to rob people before the PDA update. You have to what? Get AA by breaking inside the captain's locker which is just "too much" for robbing money, might as well rogue the AI, took all of the station money to waste it on whatever trader toys. The only other way are also stupidly hard like... again rogueing the AI or having to roll RNG gene that also USE RNG to get someone's pin. "But they could have just roleplay making someone telling their pin" ah yes, because there is definitely a chance for them to give them your pin, not like they are going to fight back, punch you, or stun you with anything they got in their invenrory. There is also no way to guess someone's pin outside brute force too, unlike safe hacking.
Another adition, I can understand if this complain come from classic where stuff happen, you lost your item a lot. On RP? If you lost your PDA/ID, you are mostly already dead which means antags can loot all of the items from your dead body or someone has a pickpocket gun, but even then it is rare. Before this, there is no reason to steal PDA/ID, even spief won't touch your PDA/ID because people mostly find roleplaying to steal someone's PDA/ID without killing them is too hard. Also, now antag can just rob one person if they need money and probably lesser chance of people rushing captain ID to just drain everyone's ATM, which is more fun to roleplay to shank someone in maint to steal their ATM PDA, instead of silently draining my money out of nowhere with everyone's involved. Heck, if robbing one person money is unfun, imagine if this all happens to many people silently becauee someone just rush captain's ID because that's the only way to get money if you are not in certain job?
Another thing to think about, not all antags have access to bank account, give them a way to get money without, again, having to rush the HoP/Cap access.
