So let's talk about the nukeman program, and the corresponding nuclear charge. It's a bomb with the power of a maxcap canister bomb, and you can make and set one off in under ten minutes. If you'd like proof, I'll make a video of me doing it. Guide deleted on an admin's instructions. The only thing it requires is spoofing superuser access which if you ask anyone who knows anything about packets, it's literally the first thing you learn. I'm not joking, that link is to the wiki guide.
Right now, the reason the nuke isn't set off every round is because of the nicheness of packets, and the fact that nothing on the wiki says where the nuke is, though as far as I know it's not secret content (correct me if I'm wrong). I've been trying to get more people interested in packets, and when I get around to it I'll write my own beginner's guide to everything packets. More people will learn about this, and eventually this will become abused.
Okay, I've been rambling a bit. Essentially, there is a very easy way to make something with the power of a canbomb that is only unknown because it's a subject not a lot of people are interested in. My suggestion to fix it is to require a netpass. Either require the netpass head for the actual activation (lorewise it works, three security members/heads need to approve it, then the captain has the activation code) OR require the security netpass for each sec authorization. I like the second one less since the armory is authed with the head netpass, and the security netpass is rather hard to get, especially since the armory ping reply is broken right now. Also it doesn't make as much sense lorewise.
Anyway, thoughts?
