that font is pretty unreadable |
|
i would also like a medical alert module for medic pda’s |
|
and the font has always been unreadable |
Yeah, I was going to mention. The font hasn't been changed, just the color. |

I think only dedicated modules should get the big alert text, but different jingles are very good. A key difference to me is that PDA Program alert can be issued by any random crew member, and PDA Module alert is (presuming no theft) a person asking their team for backup. This is why the alert button is worth sacrificing a PDA flashlight for - as Security, you have a button that tells the rest of Security shit's fucked. Other non-sec crew around you can hear/see/react to security calling security for help. Adding a medical alert module and engineering alert module ala the security ones but placing them in their respective equipment vendors makes sense, and can use the jingles/text. It would be a good default for the Medical Doctor PDAs too, I think. |

i just think it's funny when i call for a janitor and everyone looks at me funny |

About the PR
This adds proper distinction between all alert variants in the game. Every alert now has a unique font associated with the department that the alert is for, as well as a new jingle to differentiate it from the Security alert, which has been unchanged.

To avoid confusion about the kind of alert that has been sent in any given situation.
