The AI made me the HoS!

Yes. I asked AI to consider me a HoS, and it did. It let me into brig, HoS office, it even called borg to open HoS locker for me when I asked. I could take the laser pistol and gun down someone if I was an antag. And in my opinion, that's a really really bad thing for AI to do, but AI would defend i...

Re: Gving the AI and sec something to do to reduce validhunt

I think the main issue that the AI and sec suffer from is that they don't have much to keep themselves occupied with, which leads to then scanning the station for antag behavior, since they don't have anything else to do really. Holy fuck it's literally the job of security to scan the station for a...
