I very, very much like the idea of controlling the other bots on the station, such as buttbots, skull bots etc. I believe that there is a strong feeling from some of the coders that the AI should NOT have easy access to pull. This may mean that the magtractor isnt going to fly, but as an alternative if I could deliver medical attention via a medibot under my directl control I wouldnt necessary need to pull.
Securitron control may be a bit much, but if there were alternatives that we could use to deal damage to people outside of shells and electrified doors that would be great. Even if it was something that could be considered time consuming to prepare.
The idea of having Tabs, perhaps similar to blob, for individual console access seems really good too. I posted in another thread about my desire to see a malf AI as an antag round in Goonstation. I havent had a chance to enjoy that on any server before, really, but I think a key component has to do with making the AI core easier to defend, and making the AI able to damage people with insulated gloved more easily.
Another idea I just thought of is that of a sort of silicon mindslave situation. If this is too of topic please ignore, but imagine if when selected as an AI traitor you had an option to deliver either a mindslave-like implant or a direct dose of nano-machine/robotic transformation virus. This may be significantly easier to implement than many of the complex but awesome changes mentioned already.
Edit: I very much like that it is YoukCat making the initial suggestions, I consider him one of the foremost AI experts of goon at this point.
