Comms Console Access Weirdness

Post by Gentlefood » 14 Apr 2016, 01:51

Bug Description: Currently only the CO and XO ID access levels give the Comms Console all of its options. Most notably, if you log in with any of the other Command Staff IDs; CE, BO, etc. The Options to send a Distress Beacon, Send an Announcement, and Message the USCMHC are notably missing.

It may be possible that only the CE ID breaks the Comms console, as that was the first ID to log into it the round in question.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Lack a CO/XO
2. Log in the Comms console with another Bridge ID
3. Cry and your lack of options

This is how it's been on most ss13 servers. Only the cap/co can contact central and order an evacuation unless he leaves himself logged in

Intentional.

If someone becomes Commander from say, RO, they can go and add access to their ID card (so long as they aren't making an all-access rando card to hand out). It's pretty much the only time adjusting access is allowed.

but they are NOT allowed to change the job title.
