what this link literally led to a GOOGLE DRIVE of a .dmi... I'll get the full freaking link.

BYOND Key: XanderDox Character name: Daliyah Veridan Item name: NanoTrasen Exchange Visa Why is your character carrying said item to work? Daliyah Veridan is an employee from the Eridani Corporate Federation, specifically Zeng-Hu Pharmaceuticals - serving as a production facility manager on Oran. As part of the Eridani-NanoTrasen Trade Agreement (https://forums.aurorastation.org/viewtopic.php?f=95&t=6875#p90677) - she is working for NanoTrasen for one year as a facility administrator (Captain) for the purposes of cross-experience professional development. Formally, as an employee and citizen of the Eridani Corporate Federation rather than NanoTrasen, Daliyah was required to go through the approval process to recieve legal permission to work within the Republic of Biesel for this year. Thus, she has this visa card in the event she needs to provide a form of government identification. Item function(s): Purely cosmetic. Item description: "A work visa authorizing the holder, Daliyah Veridan, to work within the Republic of Biesel. An Eridani and NanoTrasen logo are embossed on the back. Item appearance: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1hUnWN6tLJ1zS2D21Zl-xW3ZQL-P9y2Xk/view?usp=sharing (sniped from Baystation's objects, it's their sol work visa - consider this compensation for sniping my platinum medal D:<) How will you use this to better interact with crew and/or stimulate RP? Daliyah talks frequently with crew about the fact that she comes from the ECF, and how things are quite different here than there. This would provide her a credible item that shows her unique position at this time of being in a completely foreign area, with new regulations and policies and a new company. The fact the work visa only lasts a year is where her main talking point will come front, bringing up the fact that she will get to go home in a years time and misses her facility there. Additional comments: [mention]Zundy[/mention] if anything is inaccurate relating to Eridani, plz say.

Because I have an issue with bloating of things ranging from discord channel disorganization to unnecessary information on things. [mention]Zundy[/mention] , I don't know how full the ID card screen is right now but it's easier to just make room for things by removing something else. [mention]Alberyk[/mention] The suggestion literally mentions that searching through records for organ donation is a chore because our records systems freaking suck. Unless its a toggleable option that appears in the top-most area of records with DNA and such, no.

This. There is no reason the company would have someone's religion (unless they were a chaplain) on their corporate ID card. Where I am from, it is illegal to inquire about a prospective or current employee's religion/creed/faith. However, we could use the space on the ID card for something far better - ORGAN DONATION! This means you can give Medical the all clear to steal your organs upon death without hiding it somewhere in your records that medical really doesn't want to have to search through (the formatting of our records systems is terrible) to find out whether they can cut you open.

You aren't understanding the situation that I am trying to prevent, clearly, so I will explain it again. This is not about captains giving orders or interfering with the ERT. I never asked for or expected for captains to have authority over emergency response duties. This is about the ERT removing the captain and other command staff members from their position, without reason, so they sit in a back room of the bridge or the bar for the rest of the round, not performing their duties or assisting the crew in any way, presumably so the ERT members can feel like the biggest kids on the playground and stroke their egos. I have never in my four years here on Aurora, seen this occur unless the Captain was actively interfering with the job/mission of the ERT.

Managers of a business have no authority in the carrying out of law enforcement and emergency response duties LOL.

Good lord man, what is this drama you are unloading on us. Outside the station hierarchy does not mean above it, and there is absolutely no reason that the ERT need the authority of supreme operational power. The hypothetical captain you speak of calls an ERT to solve a problem that they feel cannot be resolved by the internal crew he has, but he's still in charge of his own vessel. There's no logical reason for the company hiring them to put more authority and trust in a bunch of gun toting mercenaries than the person they selected to oversee the functions of their entire research station. Their function is even described in their name - they are being called to respond to an emergency. Unless the captain is part of, or the cause of, the emergency they have been called to resolve, there is no reason they should be able to depose his authority on a passing whim. And speaking from an out of character perspective, I once again reiterate that most ERT are composed at least partially of salty ghosts who died in-round, and have a personal beef with the antagonists they are going to fight. They are just a bunch of armed muscle, and their judgement is likely already compromised because of their previous failure to win against the antagonists. They don't really deserve the right to be treated like the Voice of Nanotrasen Executives just for clicking the 'join ERT' button, or given the power to overrule the person in charge of the station, unless said captain is somehow a danger to the station themselves. Calling an emergency response team is literally just calling for backup guns when you're out of options, there's no implied turning over of operational authority attached to it. Dismissing the captain from duty for literally no reason other than powerboner or giggles is incredibly stupid and should not be permitted, because it's not doing anything to resolve the problem. No person in the game has no strings attached ultimate authority, not even the captain himself, who has to answer to CCIA if his conduct results in an IR. Don't give it to a disposable character whose personality and motivation can be summed up as 'validhunter' ERT are like the police. If you are private security, and you call the police - you turn over the incident to them and police take control.

I think the issue they're pointing out here is that it shouldn't be done without a good reason. It's not reasonable nor is it fun for people if a recently joined Captain or Command member is effectively removed from their position, little difference to a suspension to me. This is why the decision to call an ERT should be Captain's only, or require the swiping of all active command staff. By calling ERT, you make the decision to surrender your authority over the security effort. You still have authority, you can just be overriden. [mention]Skull132[/mention] explain to these people how you have in the past why ERT do the do.

0.5 to 5 toxins from shit is not 'serious poisoning' so please don't over exaggerate. The tea works for minor toxins very well. It doesn't work for spider toxins because spider toxins need to be removed via dialysis before the toxins themselves should be treated (unless they're already serious levels), nobody would ever use tea for a spider bite and unless you provide evidence of it, I don't really believe someone did. Radiation medication is hard to come by, but usually toxins caused by radiation are slim to none unless the person was exposed for a long time. In this case, tea is FINE. 1 unit of dylovene is either worth 5 or 10 units of toxins gone, that's a lot of waste in chemical in the end as syringes only work in fives. Tea is the intermediary and is a fun part of our universe, and indeed - an IC organization did research into the healing effects of tea and produced a formal opinion on the matter so it is a part of IC culture as well.

When you call ERT as a Captain, it is one of the last-ditch decisions you make. You are willfully turning over your operational authority to an external force, so they can solve the thread you already failed to handle. This is why the ERT get a lot of power, it's operational and they need it for mission success. They exist outside of station hierarchy.

Defibs are not in our code, we don't even have a single defib. No snowflake 'you're not dead despite the fact you just died!' device plz. Chemistry has a button in their lab that opens that double door, this is to stop people from walking up and annoying the shit out of them without a reason. The front reception desk can also open the door for you. Just ask, communicate, stop being god damn lazy plz everyone.

RIGs are OP. No.

Okay but why do you want to debilitate the limited xeno fashion even more. You only have white wrappings, black boots, ugly brown boots, and sandals to choose from. fuck xenos

Basically, almost every shift 60% of the vendors start spewing shit out. This is annoying, and engineering hardly has time to fix them. It's especially annoying in medical when you have medicine bottles and needles being shot across the room at you. It happens almost every round and it should have the chance to occur reduced, or the amount of vendors affected reduced.

I don't vote secret for antags, I vote secret because I know I have the chance of extended - while still having the majority of the player base ready up and play (about 30% leave/don't join if Extended is voted) . Please don't remove extended from secret.

NanoTrasen does not have 'death squads', thank you very much. Howabout we just get rid of rev and don't implement gang, win win

Becoming an HoS/HoP as IPC is somewhat harder because you need to get a recommendation (because of stupid changes and ignorance to the fact that the CE/RD would have more access to sensitive information that the HoP and HoS), so CE/RD are very common for IPCs. CMO's as well, we have Chesire and RIP. Clav.

CMO's office is the same average size in tiles as all other head of staff officers, it's just longer than it is square compared to the others.

Chemistry has a button that allows them to open that door so people can come see them, it just means nobody will be knocking on chemistry's window yelling about their pain meds.

The United States is a fucked up place. Let's not take ideas from them. They shock da gays. Europe is an old place, they always take a bit longer to uh, come up to 'modern' standards. (You know what they say about the Welsh, right?)

I have no issues with newmedbay knowing Fowl is updating the Psych office a bit

[mention]Skull132[/mention] I motion to lock this in line with our revert policy of waiting one month until reversion is considered.
