Gives BSOs access to NTR Airlocks, NTR Lockers now use NTR access by CawsForConcern · Pull Request #2628 · ss14Starlight/space-station-14 (original) (raw)

Short description

NTR access airlocks like AirlockNtrepGlassLocked only allowed the NTR through. This PR changes it so that BSOs can also walk through these doors.

This PR also changes it so that the NT Rep's locker actually uses NT Rep access (instead of Command access).

Why we need to add this

Currently on Packed (added in #2108) and Plasma (upcoming in #2198), there are little nice NTR Rooms behind NTR-access airlocks. The trouble is that these rooms also gate access to the BSO's Locker.

This could be solved by adding combination door prototypes (something like AirlockNtrepBSOGlassLocked, but:

• That sucks
• The door sprites would be identical so it would be easy to get confused why you can't access a room
• The doors sprites being identical makes it really easy to map this wrongly
• I don't think we need even more airlock prototypes

The BSO being able to walk through NTR doors just intuitively makes sense. BSOs protect NTRs, thus should have access through their doors.

As for the NTR Locker access: yeah no I don't know why this wasn't done when NTR access was added. This one is clearly an oversight.
