What are the steps required to add or remove a job type on the station?

What do you mean by this - are you making a new map, or are you trying to create a brand new role for all stations?

I want to merge the doctor and chemist into one doctor role.

Yes, but are you doing this on a new station you're creating, or are you trying to create a PR to merge the two roles on every station?

I want to merge it on the existing stations.

Personally I'm not sure how well merging the two jobs on existing stations will be received, but you can take a look at omegastation or even better birdboatstation for an idea of how to add equipment, ID access, and so forth to jobs as well as how to remove existing ones.

Sigh, people trying to make medical roles even less important/divided.

your pr won't make it far.

but you can adjust jobs in the jobs controller subsystem

As stated previously, good luck ever getting this merged, but it shouldn't be a difficult job

I don't think you need to do much more than scrap any references to chemists and then change anything that requires chemist level access to a doctor's level access

Seriously though if you're doing this with any intent beyond wanting to test it for fun/changes for your own server, this is a waste of time, it won't happen

this is why we can't have the amazing rare thing called "new people"

also, can you set up preferences to where dependent on what station it is, you will have a different selection of jobs open?

To actually answer the question: You will have to edit the job datum, making a new one(or editing the existing one) to have the outfit/access that you want for the job merge, then, if you edit the job name, you will have to edit the landmarks on the maps to have the correct job's name.

Hey what if we move the discussion of whether or not you think this is a good idea to the ideas forum instead?

Asking "how do you do this" or "how does this work" is a different question to "should we do this".
