Accepted Site wide lockdown QoL

['Dutch']

What does this suggestion change/add/remove:
Basically adding an announcement whenever the site wide lockdown is activated inside EOC.
This being along the lines of:
'' Site Wide lockdown has been activated. Seek shelter inmediatly!''
or
''Site wide lockdown system has been activated.''

Obivously this can be changed to whatever is doable.

Has something similar been suggested before? If so, why is your suggestion different?:
I have suggested this before and it got accepted but I am unable to find it in the dev log or on the forums. Hence I am remaking the suggestions

Possible Positives of the suggestion (At least 2):
- Makes it so the person who enables site wide lockdown does not need to spam/scream it over comms
- Gives more emersion into a site wide lockdown, instead of just alarms blaring and doors closing.

Possible Negatives of the suggestion:
- The adding of a voiceline/sound into the server might be a bit difficult.

Based on the Positives & Negatives, why should this suggestion be accepted:
It is just a nice QoL change that is minor but would improve immersion.

I think FSL is slightly too diegetic. For the longest time, I actually did not know what the blaring alarm and red lights meant when they went off, seemingly randomly - And also never connected it with the open/closed state of any blast doors. Maybe that's just me, but I can't imagine that it's intuitive and is probably similarly confusing to someone learning the ropes of how the server works. I think it could do with some kind of change to make it more obvious at a glance that these things are connected.

Hi @Mark Belgrum (Dutch) ,

Thanks for taking the time to make a server suggestion.
Keep in mind we do not have any VAs currently so this would be done via announcement system voice instead.

Your suggestion will now be locked and marked as accepted.​
