pda sec alerts

[Streaky Haddock]

It's impossible to notice every sec call as an officer, and you inevitably end of round chat is how blind and stupid and callous you were.

So how about a 911-esque PDA alert system where crew can send a message to all security personnel that flashes their PDA. It automatically takes their location and uses the PDA's name and job to send an alert to officers.

This is so when security chases down and kills the changeling, they can look at their PDA and see a laundry list of everything else they missed.

HoS, Captain and Magistrate (and maybe the RD/CE if this can be done from the messaging server) can blacklist PDAs from this service. 

 

Would this be a simple function to code?

This seems awesome! I tend to actually see 90% of the security calls, and relay them whenever I play HoS. imo this could be done with a decent enough HoS PENDING the round isn't chaotic as shit. That said, it's often chaotic as shit. There might be a way to code a telecomms script for to serve the same purpose, people calling for security and such. It'd be fairly complex to code in...but...it could be possible and well worth it.

If it's at all possible to add it could still be cool.
