Borg TV request

[whizdasugoi]

I think all borgs should have cameras, but specially mining modules. If they had some type of TV to watch the quartermaster office, they could sell ores they mine instantly by the best price in the market without worrying about ending up stepping on whatever QM is currently there. A civilian module camera would suffice, those interested in using this system would just drag whatever cameras are available, or you could make it target QM specifically. Thanks in advance, sorry if this isn't request-worthy.

I'm not too keen on the idea of having borgs have cameras, asking QM for ore prices doesn't sound like much of a hassle and if there is none, you're usually on the lowpop maps where QM is fairly close to mining anyways.
brobocop is a fairly powerful module already just because of its camera viewer, extending this power to all other modules seems unreasonable and just waiting for demise the moment Asimov laws are gone

Well, I do see your point, but that's why I'M asking specifically for a TV for mining module to watch the quartermaster office or the civilian module TV for all, which only accesses the security helmet camera and a recreational camera, which usually is stuck to the ground, so for us to use it we'd need a human helping hand. Thanks for the attention!

I don't think it's a good idea to make borgs be able to do a whole department's worth of stuff on their own

i understand it, but we already can after stealing a console and having someone set it up for us wherever, the issue is that we gotta steal something for that and bother a carbon touch to put the board inside
i'm just asking for a way of doing it that isn't bad for anyone
though i usually don't have quartermasters in the servers i play

I think when an idea considers having to interact with the crew to be a problem, there's often something wrong. The design wants to encourage players to interact, it's a lot of the reason borgs can't do everything by themselves, they're supposed to need the crew. 

If a single borg can handle multiple departments at once without help, that's more likely to be the issue in itself rather than the fact they have qol hangups while doing it.
