Denied Medbay Quarantine Room Upgrade

[Zen]

What does this suggestion change/add/remove:
I am suggesting three changes to the medbay quarantine room:

• Add a map logic element to actually allow the entry airlock to actually function as an airlock, similar to the reactor airlock (when that was working)
• Add a second airlock entry to the inner quarantine room, to separate it from the observation room
  • With the same working airlock system as the other
• Add a lockdown system
  • You press a button inside the observation room, or outside the outer airlock, and it activates
  • When activated, all quarantine room doors lock and cannot be opened except via a separate system, and an alarm sounds in medbay
    • E.g. a keycard scanner that only biohazard E-11s/CL4s can activate, which opens the doors despite the lockdown
  • Lockdown can be disabled by a CL4 activating a keycard scanner within the observation room or the CL4 medical office or something
  • Maybe also some kind of blastdoor, similar to the one immediately outside of 008 containment

Has something similar been suggested before? If so, why is your suggestion different?:
Not as far as I'm aware.

Possible Positives of the suggestion (At least 2):

• The airlock doors actually make sense
  • Both in that it actually functions as an airlock, and in that the containment room is actually separated from the observation room
• Better quarantine RP use
  • More functionality
  • Can actually contain/alert to a breach of quarantine effectively
    • No more 3 flimsy doors, no alarm and that's it - there's an alarm that can be sounded, and better entry doors to keep things in, e.g. an 008 outbreak

Possible Negatives of the suggestion:

• Dev work
• Map space usage
  • Not by much - quarantine room would just be a bit longer and have an extra door or two

Based on the Positives & Negatives, why should this suggestion be accepted:
Would just be a nice QoL addition to medbay to improve medical RP.

Hi @Zen,

A medical centre re-work is something I have already got considered for Site-65 when I am available to work on it, which would include a new quarantine room. There is no point in re-working one room when the whole of the medical centre needs the same treatment. When I do get around to it, I already have some ideas for the quarantine room that are similar to yours.

Nice, looking forward to it

I'll leave this open for CT to decide what to mark this as (denied/other/whatever)
