Denied Document Stealing From Cabinets

[teeheeNero]

What does this suggestion change/add/remove:
This suggestion would add the ability to "hack" document cabinets bio-locked to GOIs or locked to certain clearances for a random document in the entire cabinet.
As it is now, the only way to get documents to steal from other GOIs is taking them off a bulletin board or printing a document from the SCIPNET that is without a doubt wildly outdated and has probably been printed and "stolen" a million times.

Has something similar been suggested before? If so, why is your suggestion different?:
I have no idea.

Possible Positives of the suggestion (At least 2):
I think that this could possibly increase the amount of RP happening between the three factions, as it is now, most factions keep their documents that if stolen could be used as leverage in all the bio-locked cabinets that you can't take from.
I also think you'd see more activity out of departments like DEA who benefit from the RP that comes from stealing documents and important info from other GOIs like Chaos

Possible Negatives of the suggestion:
Depending on how you set it up, it could possibly be used by minges to steal documents they shouldnt normally have.
It could cause very important documents that were being used for very important RP to go missing and/or destroyed.

Based on the Positives & Negatives, why should this suggestion be accepted:
Like I said before, the SCIPNET is outdated for most groups, and everything good is locked behind bio-locked cabinets, by adding this you open up a few avenues to more RP.

One way you could also just balance this, is by just making the hack level pretty high, or putting a cooldown on it in general.

while a good idea at surface level after thinking it over from a noncombative perspective it falls apart. If they were only allowed to take MTF or DEA docs along with combative from the GOIs it would be ok ig but a researcher cant defend the 008 test he has waited 2 weeks to get signed if CI breaks into the exec offices and steals it.

this is a good point but at the same time you acting like ci wouldn't try and get info this is a great way to add more rp behind docs other than just getting signed for work permits or test it would allow people to see what other gois are up to as dea doing a DC on ci is pointless unless you go for kidnaps as after other main raid you know what scps they have and where they are.

This has been denied in the past (I believe there was a suggestion where you can hack cabinets but I only found lockpicking.).

Just make it so that instead of actually stealing documents, you can scan them to create a copy. Best of both worlds.

As it is now, even getting access to any documents is quite impossible due to the biolock on specific cabinets. This is why I want this added, it would make part of the roleplay loop of deepcovers actually possible to complete.
