Sec shakedown machine

[Sundance]

One of the things that is intended to happen which would make sec much more effective is that when a staff member is being brigged is they're supposed to be given their orange uniform

Not really. The orange uniform is totally optional, and as you said, it's a real fucking boon to dress someone in an orange jumpsuit. In-fact when playing as hos, I would actively discourage other officers dressing prisoners because not only does it take too long, but being stripped of your jumpsuit can rile people up, because it's kinda rude. Instead, I just chuck the orange jumpsuit at the person if they want to wear it. Most times they don't, but if they're arr peeing a convict, you'll find they'll wear them.

I therefore suggest an item that automates the process. It will only accept either documented staff (those with a job and an ID) if their record is set to incarcerated (accomplished by scanning the perp with the hand scanner when bringing them in. Undocumented staff will be accepted regardless. The machine will suck all their clothes and possessions into an evidence locker. They will then be spat out wearing prison orange and the corresponding shoes, the machine won't remove cuffs or the ID if the perp has one. Then they can be brigged as necessary.

Alot of traitor items, such as the syndicate storage and the derringer, are built for hiding. Being completely removed of all their stuff and stuffed into the evidence locker completely nullifies this. I really don't support this.

When a character is ejected from the prison there should be some sort of vending machine near the brig door that will vomit out their belongings upon insertion of their ID card (people incarcerated without an ID will just get a claim ticket).

heh funny enough, I thought of something like this in a by-gone sec thread, which would function exactly the same. This I can support, as you could potentially whack em' with a fine to get back their stuff, if you're feeling lax this could also be traitor items. It would also mean that they actually do get back their stuff, rather than being lost in sec hq. Although timed lockers already kinda function like this, I'd actually prefer a confiscated dispenser sorta thing as it sounds alot more fun.

Another thing i'd like to see is some sort of automated bail machine, but i've been suggesting that for literal years now.
