It's conflicting with det being able to be antagonist. But...I don't like how mindhackable det is. You can't really send det to go investigate alone without some antags implanting them. It happens to me when an antag told me to investigate microbombs, and whoops, I am now mindhacked, time to give antag my stun revolver. Hey det, could you track down this antag with bloodtrak? Whoops, det came back as a mindhack.
It also limits the det's job of roaming around searching for clues, asking witness, if you can just implant them, then oh no, antag has stun now. Which kinda sucks on lowpop where the only sec is one secoff and a det.
Also, I like Cal's idea about the det training thing to see the cause of death by viewing. Something a secoff can't do with their PDA. Det is kinda useless when you can just tap your PDA on doors as secoff. If chaplain can get to see people last words, which is more revealing, det being able to see the cause of death easily should less be an issue. Something to fix det is to give them a job that secoff can't really do. Even on RP, det's kinda futile when a secoff would rather do everything on their own.
