What does this suggestion change/add/remove:
Changes the cameras to display the name of whoever you are disguised as if you are a GOI, are under the effects of SCP-914, or any destruction beam model changes. This would also repurpose the "UNKNOWN" displayed to instead be randomly placed on members of the Foundation as well as having the potential to be placed on GOIs that are disguised.
Adds a ruling that any internal code-words utilized to expose disguised GOIs(not special code-words, such as kill orders, or short-hand information) must be displayed somewhere that is reasonable(such as within the Department or MTF's bunks, spawn, or within an Office). This is mainly because code-words can't be interrogated, and it is physically impossible for any GOI to know a code-word, resulting in any valid response from a GOI being taken to an admin sit.
Adds a ruling that requires a reason to conduct a code-word check in RP, such as personnel failing to terminate hostiles, purposefully neglecting friendlies, idling during fire-fights, entering an area of importance(CL4+, Biometric, or Code-locked areas) or other areas deemed highly important(such as maintenance rooms with boxes, the reactor room, etc.), or if personnel are trespassing(such as Nu-7 in E-11 bunks). Additionally, if an individual presents a valid ID, a code-word check shouldn't follow it immediately. Why would a valid ID prompt suspicion?
NOTE: Code-word checks can still be conducted at checkpoints to important areas(such as F3, 914, 008, etc.), hallways would not be considered "important". They just can't be conducted *anywhere*, since it's supposed to be a secretive code-word, you wouldn't say it anywhere outside of specific places. Just like saying Overseer, or O5, you wouldn't do it in a random hallway, or in an SCP's chamber unless its a CL4 area(like 682, or 008).
Possible Positives of the suggestion (At least 2):
+ CI, and GOC, can conduct Deep-Cover and Assessment Raids without immediately being discovered by cameras, or code-word checked.
+ Class-D Personnel are no longer displayed as such while under the effects of SCP-914.
+ Cameras can't immediately give a reason to ID, Code-word, Kant-count, and EST personnel without any input, RP, or skill involved.
+ More RP intensive scenarios may unfold with personnel marked as UNKNOWN randomly, rather than exclusively for GOIs.
+ Deep-Covers, Class-D Personnel, or Assessment Operatives who take the time to learn the active Code-word, obtain a valid ID, etc., can't simply be terminated or captured because the camera system doesn't recognize their face, even when it is fully covered.
+ Cameras can still detect a given person's name, meaning if an action is taken that seems suspicious, an AOS can still be called on that Operative, leading to their discovery, and a keen or aware GOI/Class-D can change disguises upon conducting suspicious activities in front of CCTV.
Possible Negatives of the suggestion:
- DEA can't immediately target or EST GOIs because the camera says "UNKNOWN".
- More reasonable ID checks can be conducted.
- MTFs might get upset they can't meta-game GOIs by immediately code-word checking them on-sight.
Based on the Positives & Negatives, why should this suggestion be accepted:
Better DC/ARs, and a more appropriate use for the cameras, since cams having the ability to see through SCP-914, and GOI disguises is really ridiculous, especially because O5 have nothing better to do but sit on F3 cams and make callouts for A-1 to kill Class-Ds and GOI DC/ARs. It really makes it impossible to conduct DC/ARs with the un-interrogatable, un-knowable code-words, and the newly added cameras that see straight through disguises of any kind.
With the proposed changes, DC/AR operatives can sneak into a given department's bunks to find out a code-word, and would no longer be immediately discovered by camera operators. If they present an invalid ID, or fail a code-word check, it's because they failed to do their research or get the required equipment, rather than completely impossible to find out a code-word, or avoid cameras. Destroying cameras isn't always an option, and makes you look extremely suspicious, defeating the point.
