What if, instead of requiring thermals to run off station power, we rework what thermals are altogether? Instead of guaranteed see-through-walls, just make it so thermals show what's going on inside a room through the cameras. Also make cameras tied to station power. If a room runs out of power, the cameras inside turn off, giving the AI more of a reason to bother with engine/solars/bitching out engineers. Also, if someone snips the camera in a room, that room becomes invisible to anyone wearing thermals. How does that sound?
