I think it should be easier to converse through intercoms and to people in your inner sanctum, since right now its kind of a pain in the mainframe to set up on the fly.
Maybe it would help if the AI had a toggle button on the intercom window that, when active, lets you talk through it and any other active intercom by using a chat prefix. It would also let you hear through them regardless of what its set to. Kinda like setting it to 144.7, but without having to click a bunch of things every time you want to praise research's sweet canbombs without yelling it to the whole station.
As for talking to people in your Inner Sanctum, I know there's a way to turn off your radios so you can have a chat with the clown who wandered in there, but it is kind of tricky to balance that with telling the crew to stop slapping the crusher. For this, I think it'd be great to have a chat prefix that'd keep what you say local.
Unless of course there's already something that does this and I'm just dumb.
