More intuitive ID computer interface
#1
Not only are some terms rather outdated in their terminology (the "Armory" isn't the actual Armory, it's the normal Security gear), but having all of the different station places in one great big ugly blue/red clump makes it difficult to pick out individual locations due to the godawful spacing. This makes adding access to people's IDs if someone wants to work on Pathology or something tedious and incredibly difficult. It might be a better idea to break up the list under various headers according to the different station departments: Security, Engineering, Medical, etc. etc.

also as a HoS who occasionally always changes their ID during the round for whatever reason, it would be really nice if the standard job presets don't remove armory access from the card, it's really annoying having to instead click through every access type manually, either that or just give the HoS all access as the standard, would save a lot of troublin' the AI and/or beating up the HoP to avoid him stealing your ID while modifying your ID to actually include engineering.
also readd singularity bombs

You can't add/remove armory access anyway, can you? (As Bane says, the armory on the ID computer refers to normal sec equipment).

Also this is a good idea, if you don't know all the names of the rooms it can be hard to add science access to a person's ID and you inevitably miss off some important room. Much easier to make joint jobs (like a botanist doctor)

No, but if you click the "Captain" button to give yourself all access without having to click every single button individually, it zaps your special access.

Yeah this would be nice. Have it so that you can click those headers to also just give access to everything listed under them as well.

Maybe have it so that the Armory access has it's own unique heading that only the HoS starting ID is authorized to change?
