Senior Janitor Job
What does this suggestion change/add/remove:
A new job called "Senior Janitor" or "Janitorial Manager" that spawns with a CL2/3 keycard. (Similar to Tech Expert role for Engineers)
Has something similar been suggested before? If so, why is your suggestion different?:
No, do not think so
Possible Positives of the suggestion (At least 2):
Janitor's would be able to access more of the foundation that needs cleaning, honestly so many times where many spots are stuck behind doors that cant access and there is no one around to let them in, nor want to wait.
Possible Negatives of the suggestion:
Maybe more risk of minge with higher clearance keycard but locking it behind Support level X (maybe 20) should make it fine and no different to any other job heirarchy.
Based on the Positives & Negatives, why should this suggestion be accepted:
Because it resolves the current issue with Janitors not being able to access 50% of the foundation to get to clean spots and follows similar hierarchy to other job specialties like tech expert. Also it should be pretty straightforward to add.
Janitor Plunger Extension
What does this suggestion change/add/remove:
Adds a new janitor task where blocked toilets spawn around the map and Janitors use a plunger SWEP to clear them for Support XP, similar to how they already gain XP from hoovering and mopping.
Has something similar been suggested before? If so, why is your suggestion different?:
It is similar in the sense that it adds another cleaning/support activity for Janitors, but this one is different because it is objective-based, interactive, and fits the roleplay theme really well instead of just being another variation of the same existing tasks.
Possible Positives of the suggestion (At least 2):
Gives Janitors more variety so the job feels less repetitive.
Adds another immersive and funny roleplay task that suits the server well.
Creates more ways for Support XP to be earned without replacing current hoovering and mopping.
Can encourage players to move around the map and actively look for maintenance issues.
Possible Negatives of the suggestion:
Could need some balancing for XP gain and spawn frequency.
May take some dev time to set up toilet locations and test properly.
Based on the Positives & Negatives, why should this suggestion be accepted:
This should be accepted because it expands the Janitor job with a task that is thematic, simple to understand, and gives more variety to Support gameplay. It builds on the job’s existing XP system rather than replacing it, and with proper balancing it would be a fun extra activity that fits the server naturally.
