It's something that I saw Cog suggest in the discord, and I believe it might help against deathballs, but something like alert levels might be of use.
Instead of just having one single "Help now or I die" button that can in reality mean anything from a bar fight to a TTV in medbay, we could have a button for pursuits, one for "small issue, but I only need one officer" and one for "someone is shooting in medbay with Spes and stims" or something of the sort.
If there are multiple buttons, and with the appropriate use of the ACK command, it may be easier to coordinate a smaller response for smaller events. (ex, if the "i only need one officer " button is pressed and other officers see that someone else ACKed that alert, they will understand that the crisis isn't important enough for them to join in as well, instead of right now all going there because they have no idea how bad the threat is)
